The Divine Collection Launched Today

March 6th, 2024 by

The Divine Collection is a collection of 100% natural perfumes. The five distinctive perfumes are Blessings, Divine Guidance, Gratitude, Intention, and Prosperity. These natural fragrances smell like nothing I have ever experienced. Otherworldy… I was working with an extremely high positive vibration. This high energy was off the charts.

Every energetic perfume in this collection made me smile. You must try them all. The Divine Collection – All things Divine!

BLESSINGS: A citrus burst of sunshine. A ray of light captured in a bottle. Wear this natural perfume and feel beyond blessed.
Notes – tangerine, ylang ylang extra, yellow mandarin, key lime, lavender Bulgaria, cedarwood

DIVIINE GUIDANCE: From the Sacred green spikenard to the Holy basil, this perfume resonates with ancient chants. Allow this perfume to “whisper” to you.
Notes – green spikenard, holy basil, hydrodistilled Oman frankincense, wild orange, lemon, basil, spearmint, juniper

GRATITUDE: With a truck load of damask roses and enough jasmine sambac to line your path; your heart will open. Feel the loving gratitude swelling up from within.
Notes – celery seed, combava – Keffir lime, jasmine sambac, Bulgarian rose damask, cardamon, light patchouli, sweet orange

INTENTION: From the first whiff you will feel the smoke rising; clearing the energies. Now is the time to “speak” your intentions into creation.
Notes – nutmeg, balsam fir, lemon, Bulgarian tobacco absolute, elemi, cistus, pink pepper, green mandarin

PROSPERITY: From chocolate to vanilla this sweet concoction will enrich your life. The magnolia is the cherry on the top.
Notes – Royal Green Hojary frankincense, myrrh, vanilla absolute, magnolia, French lavender, tangerine, African sandalwood

These are traditional classic perfumes made with real essential oils and absolutes. No toxic, synthetic fragrance oils! They are all natural eau de perfumes in organic grape alcohol from wine grapes.

——————————————————————————————
Natural fragrances are not like synthetic, commercial, department store fragrances. They will not last all day. You need to apply the fragrance to your skin or your clothing and re apply them as needed.

They can last from 4 hours to 8 hours or longer depending on the formula and your skin. For extreme self care I ask you to anoint yourself and reapply them. It is like giving yourself a blessing. The perfumes in organic jojoba oil have a higher concentration of the essential oils and absolutes so will last longer than the eau de perfume and eau de toilette in organic grape alcohol.

No synthetics, phthalates, parabens, isolates, or nature identicals.
They are cruelty free with no animal testing.

They are available on my Etsy store.. and I am having a 20% off sale there now to help with the SEO with my store.

The 1 ml samples in an organdy bag are available here.

The 5 ml travel sprayers in an organdy bag are available here.

Trademark Lawyers Were Scam Artists

February 2nd, 2024 by

I have good news… 

The letters received from two separate trademark attorneys were both scam artists working together…

If you perform an online search you will discover this is quite common.  The exact same letter I received was sent to others.

There was an underlying feeling there was something wrong and I told them I did not want to go forward with the new registration. Glad I checked it out online.

I am on Etsy using my name again.  https://www.etsy.com/shop/JoAnneBassett

There is a sale on now …buy $50 in product and get 10% off.  In order to be seen in search on Etsy you have to offer sales.  I hope you will come see me there.

Summer Solstice Natural Perfume

June 21st, 2023 by

May be an image of Stone Henge and text

Have a great Summer Solstice.
In June 2011 I created a natural perfume with a Midsummer’s Night Dream theme. 

Here is a blog post I created:


Dark Mistress Eau de Parfum, the Night Queen

December 30th, 2011 by 

The feeling I had was to create a night perfume…with flowers and attributes of the night. I had ordered an interesting oil named Night Queen – special Indian Jasmine and had not used it. What a strange and inviting smell. In the course of an afternoon I added rhododendron, night queen, peru balsam, rosewood, damask rose oil, neroli, tuberose . . one of my favorite night smells in India or France, vintage jasmine sambac.. another queen of the night, frankincense, yuzu, clove bud, tulsi, frankincense  – dark and for the night, champa that you smell on warm Indian nights, vetiver, violet leaf that wonderful green forest smell, and ylang ylang for some extra romance. With 17 oils this perfume said yes. It will transform you if you allow it. It is an Oriental Woody perfume.

Review from Joseph Sagona. What I love most about Dark Mistress is has a vintage feel and smell, but its very timeless at the same time, even though it has quite a few notes, its very smooth and refined, its very well blended, the notes flow together seamlessly.

Dark Mistress is a very classy, elegant, sophisticated, smoky, bright yet dark, strong, with soft touches of citrus and woody undertones Oriental Woody fragrance, this is unisex and mature, perfect for ages thirty and above. Read more

This smells like an expensive perfume that you could find on the shelf at Lucky Scent in LA. If I didn’t know it was all natural I wouldn’t know it was all natural, understand? Night queen is listed as one of the ingredients of this perfume and isn’t something I am very familiar with. In fact, I don’t think I have ever heard of night queen before. This perfume, according to Ms. Bassett, is based on the night and not on a certain character from the play A Midsummer Night’s Dream. This definitely isn’t a fairy’s perfume. Not even a little bit. This is a big, loud, sexy perfume. It might belong to Titania if she wasn’t such a fairy herself. The best way to describe this perfume is to say that if Marilyn Monroe, Bette Midler, Madonna and Lady Gaga all got together to make a perfume, then this is what they would come up with. The other ingredients in this perfume include rhododendron, peru balsam, rosewood, damask rose oil, neroli, tuberose, vintage jasmine sambac, frankincense, yuzu, clove bud, tulsi, frankincense noir, champa, vetiver, violet leaf and ylang-ylang. Smells really great on me, my girl and our roommates. Scary sexy. Here is the link for the review: http://leparfumeurrebelle.blogspot.com/2011/06/midsummer-nights-dream-perfume-event.html

To purchase Dark Mistress eau de parfum:

Georgette Villareal – Scent Of The Day: Dark Mistress by JoAnne Bassett. JoAnne has a unique talent to create fragrances that capture the nostalgic beauty, sophistication and elegance of classic scents. This fragrance was inspired by the mystical beauty of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and the intrigue of the night. It is a gorgeous floral, rich with exquisite jasmine, tuberose, and rosewood. It has a spicy depth of frankincense and cloves, and a lush greenness with violet leaf. It feels timeless, beautiful and mysterious. I feel elegant and beautiful wearing this scent. I love this sample!!

Essential Oils For Sale on Etsy

May 24th, 2023 by

After selling a large number of Perfume Kits I have decided to offer a 1 oz amber bottle of some of the essential oils.

Many people want the larger sizes to create their own natural perfumes or aromatherapy type products. They have learned how to blend the essential oils from using the perfume kit.

I have added other perfume supplies like perfume bottles, blotters, pipettes and more to my Etsy store under Perfumer’s Corner

I offer the Perfume Kit on my website. I do not offer the Perfumer’s Corner supplies on my website JoAnneBassett.com

Etsy continues to mess with the stores and store owners there.  They show your store more if you offer free shipping after spending $35.00, if you run ads, and if you offer sales.  They also judge you on shipping, reviews, and speedy replys to messages. I appreciate all of you who take the effort to offer a 5 star review. If you do not do these things your store may not be seen.. or you will be in the back pages of search.  On that note .. seeing your views drop to small numbers you decide to offer 10% discount… I have a 10% Memorial Day discount at my Etsy store only until May 28.

No Alcohol EDP Perfumes is a category on my Etsy store now.  I have listed the Sacred Elixir Collection to start. Let me know if there are others you would like created in the EDP strength without the alcohol.

Natural Perfume Samples

May 13th, 2023 by

Natural Perfume Samples are a convenient and low cost way to try out natural perfumes.  You can buy them in individual perfume vials for $6.00 for a 1 mil vial of eau de perfume.

Choosing natural perfume is a personal experience.  You want to be able to smell it, feel it, see it and experience how it makes you feel.

And this is especially true when you are making the switch to natural perfume, and you are not sure what they are like.

Natural perfume samples are a great way to discover new scents and learn if they suit you before purchasing the larger sizes.

The “try-me’ sizes for our natural perfumes are a simple way to sample and discover new scents, fragrances and natural perfume oils. They are also great to take travelling with you, or give as a gift to your perfume loving friends!

The perfume samples come in Discovery Sets or Sample Sets so you can test the full range.

Very often my customers end up loving all of the perfumes in a range, and find it difficult to choose just one!

You can also purchase a larger 2 ml sprayer sample here.

We have a whole range of Natural Perfume Sample Packs for you to choose from. BUY SAMPLES PACKS NOW

You can also buy Individual Samples within each Collection on that Collection Page and on Perfumes Past

Mother’s Day Gifts

May 8th, 2023 by

Mothers come in many different categories… Mothers, Stepmothers, Grandmothers, Plant Mothers, Pet Mothers, etc.  I am a Mother to my perfumes and perfume formulas.. I am also a Mother to houseplants, vegetable plants, and rose bushes.  That is a lot of mothering..no human children… but many other children I tend to…

I choose to participate in celebrating myself as I am always busy tending to something also.

A Mother’s Day tradition is to honor a Mother with a gift. A lovely energetic gift that will put a smile on their face is a natural perfume from one of my collections.  There are many perfumes to choose from in many fragrance categories. Citrus and floral are very popular choices for Spring and Summer.  I have compiled a listing of them on my page Choosing a Scent 

Sacred Elixir Collection

Some of my favorites are:

Opulence with the elegance and delight of orange blossoms! A light scent that is so happy to wear.

Ecstasy with Alba rose otto the “flower of light”, jasmine, amber and vanilla to create a fantastic perfume that will envelop you.

Luscious Roses a most precious natural rose perfume containing vanilla, tuberose and 6 different “real” roses.  This is unheard of… most rose perfume on the market is the toxic, synthetic rose fragrance made in a lab.  How can you possibly wear that poison?  To me it is like wearing Roundup weed killer… let that sink in.

Choose your size from 1 ml eau de perfume, 4 ml parfum, 5 ml eau de perfume travel sprayer,  6 ml parfum, and 1 oz eau de perfume.  Do not forget the Divine and Royal Alchemy I add to all of my precious, complex perfumes.

There are also some perfume supplies, gift box sets of botanical perfume, essential oils, etc on my Etsy store.

Enjoy the ritual of applying a natural scent daily … uplift your vibration, feel better, feel more love for yourself and others while opening your heart chakra… it starts there…

Happy Mothers Day to all.
