How To Choose A Natural Fragrance For You!
February 19th, 2016 by JoAnne Bassett
I often get questions from people about which of my JoAnne Bassett natural perfumes may be right for them. They start naming commercial fragrances or telling me of the notes or ingredients that they like. For instance they may say I like floral fragrances with rose. What they do not know is the fact that department store fragrances and commercial fragrances are mostly synthetic. The rose they are talking about is not the essential oil of real rose but a synthetic rose made in the laboratory. Therefore the cheap rose fragrance oil is not going to be found in my fragrances. What you will find in my 100% natural fragrances is a very expensive real rose oil the otto. The rose petals from a rose are steam distilled and the small yield is the expensive rose otto I buy and use in my natural perfumes.
In all of the years I have taught my classes and workshops at 5 star resorts, hotels and spas most of the students have never smelled a true rose oil. They are only familiar with the fragrance oil that comes from the laboratory and is created from chemicals. My Fragrance Flights can help a person understand which of my natural fragrances may work on their skin. My Aromatic Journeys, and Create Your Own Perfume classes also have inspired people to take my Natural Perfume Workshop to learn how to make perfume and sell it. So my classes have been useful for so many people in different ways.
For those of you who cannot attend my classes and workshops you are able to purchase the individual samples and sample sets under Perfume Collections go to Fragrance Samples or the Individual Collections will have just a 1 ml sample of all fragrances for sale.
The other way for you to choose a fragrance from my Collections is go to my page Choosing A Scent.
That page list fragrance categories and subcategories that can help you understand the differences and which notes you may be drawn to. Always feel free to contact me on my Contact Us page for any clarification you may want. I am available for a short consultation by skype or phone also.
