Leather Collection

Leather?Collection

The Leather Collection is my interpretation of leathers from around the world. They are?natural perfumes in a base of organic golden jojoba oil and eau de parfums are in organic grape alcohol from wine grapes.

Arabian: This special leather combines oud and incense to create a fine leather that is timeless?attar of Oud Cambodia, frankincense carteri, frankincense freana, cedarwood, palo santo, cassie absolute

French: This unusual leather mixed with wood is a light variety that is easy to wear?copaiba balsam, benzoin, lavender wild France, guiacwood, incense cedar

Russian: A smoky leather that is rich and deep?birch tar, Bulgarian tobacco, cardamon, clary sage, St Johns wort

Spanish: The comforting smell of amber and leather is derived from the high quality cistus?Spanish sage – salvia lavendula, cistus, dark patchouli, ambrette seed, sandalwood

Italian: This sensuous leather is like a summer evening?s drive in a Bugatti with leather seats and jasmine and orange blossoms in the air?cistus, wild orange, vintage jasmine grandifolium, Bulgarian tobacco, light patchouli

Leather Collection Bottle

This tall hand blown glass bottle is 1 ounce and about 4 inches tall. The colors are: Arabian is black, French is deep aqua, Russian is royal blue,?Spanish is?emerald green, and Italian?is deep?purple.

The color scheme on this bottle is the Reflections perfume bottle.

Because this is a hand blown glass bottle created one at a time not made in a machine the size may vary. The elegant tapered dauber extends to the bottom of the bottle.

All 1/4 ounce perfumes come with this precious hand blown, glass bottle including a lovely, clear glass dauber to apply the perfume. Turning the dauber to the right locks the bottle and makes the seal airtight. The artist uses no molds, making each perfume bottle a unique handmade creation.?Each piece is signed and dated and are collectibles. The parfum is packaged inside a gilt-edged ?book box? lined with a plush creamy white silk pillow and enveloped in a creamy white silk bag. The parfum comes in a glass bottle.

Nothing says Spring more than a burst of citrus. ?During Spring in Southern California we have citrus blooms exploding on the trees. ?We have sweet orange, lemon, grapefruit, tangerine, lime, and more.

My Le Voyage eau de toilette is a light, fresh, citrus floral that is perfect for those Spring days. Especially the days that are rainy, snowing, or Mother Nature brings earthquakes, a tornado, or other disasters. It is very uplifting and a happy and feel good scent. ?Everyone can wear it and enjoy it. It is perfect for work.

If you want to try out new fragrances but cannot decide what you want, I have put together a Spring Collection to make it easy for you.

This morning I received a wonderful review from a client.  She loves my Dark Mistress eau de parfum. Here is what she said:

I am prepared to make a VERY limited edition of violet eau de perfume from my parma violets..and my sweet violets..in organic grape alcohol. It will take a few months for the violets to fully tincture and give off their odor. The perfume will be centered around violet – a soliflore…and the other floral components will not overwhelm the violet…The violet scent is delicate and requires many blooms and recharges…It will contain a Mysore sandalwood base… If you are interested it will have to be pre ordered…I also regularly tincture gardenia..roses, heliotropes, both purple and white, tuberose, honeysuckle, citrus blooms, lilies, etc.

Stargazer lily

I am offering perfumes based on 1 scent…soliflores..and millefleur

1. Violet ?2. Gardenia ?3. Tuberose ?4. Millefleur – Natural Perfume created from botanicals.?Millefleurs is created from my fresh flowers I grow or buy from the market. It contains gardenia, jasmine sambac, Arabian jasmine, star jasmine, jasmine grandifolium, lilies, white and purple heliotrope, and hybrid tea roses, honeysuckles and others.

Gardenia

These will be 1 oz eau de parfum atomizers with organic grape alcohol and will be $225.00 each. This is a very special offering. Because of the amount of the material it takes to create the scent a few months of blooms are required. Your order will be shipped when they are ready.

Last summer I made homemade body powders with many flowers. It is a very time consuming process and I will dedicate many hours and blossoms to completing this labor of love.

I love this weekend! ?We have just experienced an eclipse, Vernal Equinox – the First Day of Spring, and a New Moon. ?The fun continues…today is National Fragrance Day! ?Where would we be without fragrance in our lives?

For most of us our day begins with a scented soap in the shower, fragrance in our shampoo and conditioner, and?scented?lotion and body oil. ?Then we apply or anoint ourselves with a natural parfum or spray on a eau de toilette or eau de parfum. We are surrounded by?the scents we have applied. It is so very important that our fragrance smells good to us…and if it has benefits that is so much better.

JoAnne Bassett?natural perfumes have aromatherapy benefits…uplifting, centering, grounding, raising self esteem, supporting on many levels, emotional and physical. ?You?can feel more confident, more alive, energized…and on and on. ?Would you like your fragrance to support you in addition to smelling good?

I use the most energetic and expensive raw materials I can find. ?It is really about the quality and how it?makes you feel. When people come into “your space” 2 to 3 feet away from you they can smell you.

Too many people have asthma, allergies, or are chemically sensitive?due to the cheap synthetic chemicals found in department store and mainstream fragrances. ?Some artisan perfumers choose to use chemicals derived from petroleum and others.

Make a healthy choice. ?Your natural perfume can last 6 hours or more with one application. ?Reapplying your perfume is a ritual even with a synthetic niche fragrance.

Enjoy your fragrance today..and be aware of what you are using on your largest organ of your body…your skin. You eat organic food and would not eat GMO’s if you were aware they are in your food and drink. ?Why would you put harmful chemicals on your skin? ?It does not make sense.

I invite you to read over the ingredients used in my 100% natural perfumes. ?Make a healthy choice today and purchase a sample pack of JoAnne Bassett natural fragrances. ?Do it for yourself and your loved ones. ?They will thank you and their nose will thank you. ?Enjoy!
