In honor of Earth Day I am asking my readers to become more aware of how you reuse, recycle, and conserve our resources.

When I look at the packaging in a perfume business I cringe.? There are double boxes, the outer box which is the mailer and the inner box which is the beautiful one we throw away, the paper liners, the cellophane overwraps, the tissue, the bows, etc.

We hear over and over how packaging sells the perfume. When we buy the perfume the first thing we do is throw away the layers of packaging and usually just put the pretty bottle on our dresser. Some people save the box if it can be repurposed or if they prefer to have their fragrances all in boxes in a cabinet as a collection.

When I was looking to create more boxes for my collections I thought about my choices. I created a beautiful expensive gift box for my Le Voyage eau de toilette.

As I researched other brands I noticed that they are really almost all the same with different colors and logos. To set my line apart I chose boxes that could be reused.

My perfume boxes are gift boxes in the shape of books.? They are deep enough to store trinkets or other items.? They have a magnetic flap so the box will stay closed.? They are three sizes and house my?parfums, eau de parfums, and Limited Edition parfums.? These beautiful boxes have gold foil and beautiful flower patterns with butterflies.? They are unique and also can be stacked or placed on a shelf like a book.? How original!

You can view my collections at this link: ?http://joannebassett.com/collections

I also grow flowers and harvest blossoms, and create tinctures of roses, gardenia, citrus blossoms and others for my Custom Perfumes.? These special tinctures and macerations are only used in my bespoke fragrances.? This is a way to use our bounty and share it with others.

Anxiety

Most of the people living on the planet at this time experience anxiety on a regular basis.? What is anxiety?

The dictionary defines it as: A feeling of worry, nervousness, or unease, typically about an imminent event or something with an uncertain outcome.

Anxiety can be a part of our lives that we feel we have no control over it.? The good news is we can relieve some anxiety with the use of essential oils and 100% natural fragrances and natural perfumes.

Some of the essential oils that combat anxiety according to the aromatherapy texts are:

Bergamot, Cedarwood, Clary Sage, Frankincense, Geranium, Lavender, Mandarin, Neroli, Patchouli, Roman Chamomile, Rose, Sandalwood, Vetiver

I chose this lovely photo of lavender fields in Provence, France as a reminder that it really is as simple as using the essential oil of lavender in your bath or in your natural fragrance.

In my collections I often use bergamot and ?mandarin for the happy citrus notes that make me feel good.? Lavender helps calm me and keep me more balanced.? Geranium is also very balanced and when you are balanced, life seems to flow easier.

Many of my natural perfumes contain these essential oils and absolutes.

?To Combat?Anger

We have recently entered April and the astrological sign of Aries.? The Aries energy from the planet?Mars is often warrior energy.? Anger can arise during this time.

These essential oils?and absolutes are indicated for helping with anger issues: Bergamot, Jasmine, Neroli, Orange, Patchouli, Petitgrain, Roman Chamomile, Rose, Vetiver, Ylang Ylang

I?love using Rose otto and absolute in my perfumes as it opens the heart chakra and promotes self love.? It is hard to feel anger when you are feeling loved.
