Reflections Limited Edition Parfum
October 27th, 2012 by JoAnne BassettReflections Limited Edition Parfum?
From Facebook:? Henrique Brito wrote: ?Reflections was the start of the exquisite line from JoAnne Bassett where she combines precious and expensive materials in luxurious compositions, that drydown on skin in complex but natural ways. Inspired by a sunset over the Pacific Ocean, both bottle and fragrance are a harmonic union of different colors (the stunning bottle) and aromas (the fragrance itself) que in its beauty inspire a contemplative moment. It?s a serene blend of citrus fruits, citrus flower, sensual flowers and vanilla with slightly nuances of woods and spices. Although it contains exotic materials like Agarwood or Tuberose, the sensation that the perfumer transmits is of a zen balance between all the essences. There isn?t any saturation, but an harmony that always keep something citrusy, sweet, floral, and sweetly woody, with different emphasis on those aspects on each fragrance phases. Reflections evolves according the perfumer?s signature, starting with sparkling and slightly sweet citrus fruits changing quickly to a second moment floral of green nuances and a sating, slightly fruity feeling. The Agarwood is really soft on this fragrance, giving just a woody and ambery tone, suitable to a fragrance that intends to capture a sunset, and it?s balanced with a more adult sweet vanilla, which is creamy without being sugary, and with a complex woody, incensy and creamy sandalwood. Reflections smells peaceful in its exoticism and transmits what you would expect from a sunset, a sensation of peace and well-being through a captural of a pleasant and natural beauty.?
Esoterica Limited Edition Parfum
October 23rd, 2012 by JoAnne BassettFrom Facebook: Henrique Brito review: At first you may think that Esoterica doesn’t have a connexion between its name and essence but a careful understanding makes it evident the reason of its creator giving this name. Even though esoteric is a word which is associated with something mystical, even religious maybe, here it’s used not in this meaning, but to name a perfume deep and mysterious, sensual but sober and a little bit thick as it develops. The blue beautiful colored bottle doesn’t give clues of its complexity and doesn’t reveal the deepness of a fragrance that starts citrusy and become more oriental and leathery during its evolution. Esoterica’s opening has a blend of citrus essences and roses that works like a conducting wire between the different JoAnne Bassett creations. It’s part of her signature and it’s a combination that she knows how to work in a way that sounds familiar on many of her fragrances at the same time that it reveals itself unique on each one of them. This fragrance finds a balance between the more light and refreshing aspect and the sweetness of its citric fruits, blending them with a silky and delicate rose aroma.? The scent becomes, as its name says, more complex and deep during its stage on the skin. The second moment on skin shows a delicious combination of orange flower and jasmine that is sensual but sounds so natural and comfortable, atracting more due to its beauty instead of its intensity. The last phase is the one that seems more complex and deep on skin, where the aroma transforms into a cozy combination of leather, vanilla, sandalwood and patchouli. The leather aroma here makes me think of classic leather, slightly smoky and rectified, and the vanilla has a controlled creamy sweetness and has some woody facets that blends well with the creamy woody sandalwood. The patchouli on Esotica is not intense and adds a slightly earthy touch to the vanillic leathery woody scent. Esoterica is, although complex, a well-balanced fragrance, perceptible on skin but not loud, being more of a rich, silky, luxurious and comfortable scent, a sensual elixir that develops its mysteries on my skin in a comfortable pace.
Luscious Roses Limited Edition Parfum
October 21st, 2012 by JoAnne BassettLuscious Roses Limited Edition Parfum?
From Facebook:? Henrique Brito wrote: Luscious Roses is dedicated to one of the essences that JoAnne Bassett loves, the smell of roses. In almost all of her fragrances you find rose and it?s used by the perfumer for both the delicate aroma as its healing properties. In Luscious Roses she creates a fragrance dedicated to one the most venerated flowers but opting to represent it in a more abstract way, choosing a mix of 6 different roses that are supported by a background base of vanilla, patchouli, balsam and frankincense. The roses, as star, dominate most of the composition and sound as freshly harvested and natural; they are not like the thick extracted rose smell but more like the flower in its delicacy. There is a quick sweet citric opening and then the roses smell soon is evident, at first more green, later more fruity and then in a third phase more musky and satiny. At this phase you can notice a sheer incense, at the background, giving evidences that the fragrance heads to the final phase. Its base it?s dark but delicate as the roses that comes before it and make an interesting contrast of an aroma which works as a second skin but that it?s a dark mixture of boozy vanilla, sweet and earthy patchouli and a resinous balsam. Being a 100% natural fragrance makes Luscious Roses whisper instead of shouting on skin, but even that its aroma is delicate it last quite well for a natural composition, more than 6 hours of a cozy and silky aroma of precious and beautiful roses.
