Depression – Seasonal or Not

January 16th, 2023 by

During the winter months many people experience seasonal depression.  This happens when there are not many hours of daylight and often during the day it rains, snows or is generally cloudy and dark.  Some people tend to stay indoors and drink coffee or tea for the caffeine to give them a “boost”.

This time of year can be an emotional roller coaster as we take a look at our life. We spend hours with ourselves after the holidays have worn off, doing a life review of our goals and where we are at.  If that is not a positive thing for you there is a tendency to fall into a depressed state. We do not feel good about ourselves and everything  surrounding us.

When I lived in the Seattle, Washington area for 10 years I learned about depression and the lack of sunlight and how it affects us emotionally.  My citrus essential oils brought me some smiles but it was not long lasting.

I created Reveiller eau de toilette for my boyfriend who suffered from depression from going to work in the dark and driving home in the dark and rain. He actually did not even realize his depressed state but I did.  In the summer he was a different person. Reveiller means “to awaken” and when you spray on this light botanical fragrance you will feel refreshed.

Since that time I have created other fragrances with St. John’s wort and other oils with alchemy to transmute and transform the depression.  Whether the depressed state is seasonal or not. Happy, Liquid Sunshine, Josephine, Radiance are other natural perfumes that will support you if you desire.

You do not need to suffer through this time… you do not need to go to bed early and sleep through the misery of it.  Allow the natural perfumes to help uplift you and shift your energy.

I am offering a 10% off Thank You Sale in my Etsy shop.  There is a marketing practice on Etsy when a person favorites your shop or favorites your item they will be notified of a sale.  They also can receive a 10% off Thank you coupon when they make a sale.

In order for the person to receive any benefit from putting my shop or items on their favorite list they get notified of a sale. So if I do not have a sale… for months they receive no coupon or notice of such. Anyway I have decided to reward the people who have done this now. Anyone who purchases something in my shop now will receive 10% off their purchase.  This is worldwide.  This 10% off will end December 5, 2022.

Free Shipping Worldwide Has Ended

November 2nd, 2022 by

Well I tried it for one month. I thought more people would take this opportunity to order the heavy items like the Perfume Kit and full bottles. I received some orders for perfume kits and they saved $35.00 and more on their shipping.  My intention was to reach more new customers world wide.

My USA free shipping when you spend $35 is still active.  The shipping fees in Canada are $10 flat rate shipping up to a $299 order and then $20 over $300. The shipping fees World Wide are $20 flat rate shipping up to a $299 order and then $25 over $300. Shipping perfume kits are $25 to $45 outside of the US so that is your discount.

I will not be offering any 20% off discounts on Etsy for them to show my site more often in  searches.  As I have shared Etsy paid ads takes a large chunk of profit already.

In this Etsy and retail world of discounting everything… people are just looking for bargains. That is a scarcity mindset and I no longer choose to play the game.

Empowering people is one of my missions in this reincarnation.  How can I tell you to empower yourself using my encoded and perfumes with alchemy, and then you play the discount game? The world is an abundant place.. prosperity abounds. Shift your way of thinking, the way you talk to yourself and treat yourself.  This is mainly a self esteem issue. I have gone through this myself this lifetime. Have you read the book “As A Man Thinketh”?  You create your reality with your thoughts and the actions you take in this world.

No one is coming to save you!  Save yourself! You are the only one who can do it.

Check out my Empowering Perfumes for your support at this time.  I named this Collection Women’s Empowerment but it could be called Empowerment for Everyone. My perfumes do not have gender affiliations.  Get the sample sets and decide for yourself which natural perfumes work for you.  I also sell 1 ml eau de perfume samples of most collections. Look on each collection page to order them.

For a fun party idea order my Perfume Kit. Men and women love it.. fun for bridal showers and more.

Free Shipping Worldwide

September 26th, 2022 by

Over the last year I have had many different ideas about how to sell my natural perfume business, who to sell my business to, what financial offers were a good match, etc.  It all brought me to the same place…letting go, surrendering to what is.  That is where I find my answers.

There must still be a reason I am to offer my Natural Perfumes with Alchemy… healing, mood altering, conscious raising, empowering, releasing and letting go perfumes. People need support at this time.  Things are falling apart.. change is upon us.  This is the only way out and through. There is no way to go back to the way it was.. or to stay in the way it was.

So here I am coming into the fall with the holiday shopping season upon us.  I really thought I would no longer have my perfume business on Etsy and my website JoAnne Bassett. The US Postal Service announced a plan to raise postage prices starting October 2 through January 22, 2023 for the holiday season.  I have decided to offer FREE shipping worldwide on both websites with a purchase of $35.00 and higher.  Some packages I send outside of the US cost me $20 to $45 for a gift box and my perfume kit to be mailed.

Clients who discovered my energetic perfumes on the telesummits From Heartache To Joy and You Wealth Revolution are aware of the alchemy and pure energy I add to my perfumes. This healing energy and Divine Alchemy is an easy support system to help ease the emotional and physical stress felt in these times.  As a Light Worker I want to support more people and this is my way of offering energetic support for the New Earth we are birthing.

My Magical Perfumes and others serve a Divine Purpose… they have protocols. They are not just a sample to smell good for the day and that is why some of them are not sold in 1 ml sample sizes.  It is like an energetic prescription to use up until it is gone to transmute or transform the challenge. I cannot tell you what the purpose is for these perfumes. What I can say is you will be drawn to what your body needs. I channel these formulas and am instructed to help the world with the challenges of the people. Does that make sense?

I also would love for any of you who have had “miracles” happen when wearing my perfumes please leave me a 5 star review on Etsy and on my Facebook perfume page.  Facebook wants us to buy advertising and if we do not they will not share our posts with many people.  The same is true on Etsy.  I spent a lot of advertising money on Etsy last year and along with their higher fees it takes most of my profit. Trying to reach more people to help in the world.  Please help me get the word out.

If you have not tried any of the new Infinity Perfumes I urge you to feel the heightened energy to assist you for this now moment in time.

Enjoy the change of seasons, go within and surrender to what is.

Labor Day Sale on Etsy

August 31st, 2022 by

I cannot believe we are at Labor Day already! This summer went really fast.

My 20% off Labor Day Sale is on Etsy only and goes until September 8.  I do not have many sales a year so you do not want to miss this one.

There are perfume kits, perfume samples, perfume bottles, perfumes and eau de perfumes in various sizes and vintage essential oils for sale. I have a lot of beautiful fragrances that have been encoded for various purposes like love, joy, abundance and prosperity.  They all have had alchemy performed on them so just by wearing them you will feel the Divine Light surrounding you.  By wearing my energetic, all natural perfumes you will be in a higher vibratory state and will attract more love to you. You will also feel more love for yourself.  Who doesn’t need to feel that at this time?

My natural perfume business has always been about empowering women. My alchemy  I perform on my natural perfume is about love or above on the Hawkin’s scale.

My RoseLoversGifts Etsy store has some beautiful coffee and tea mugs with rose photos on them.  Some of these roses are from my garden.  I have around 30 roses growing right now. Please visit my store and give it some love.. these mugs make beautiful gifts.. I enjoy mine with my morning coffee and tea during the day.  There are also enamel camping mugs that are great for camping and for children to use anytime.

Regarding selling my perfume business – my brand.  I have received numerous offers but have not sold it to anyone yet.  I want a cash buyout with someone or a company who can carry on my perfume business, make my formulas with alchemy attached and leave my legacy. That person or company with integrity has not come forward yet. I am not interested in a payment plan. Also I am selling perfume formulas on their own for $15,000 each or $17,000 with Divine alchemy attached.  Just by purchasing perfume formulas someone can start their own perfume business. They cannot use my name or say these are my formulas however.

I have had inquiries why I do not make samples for my latest Infinity Collection. The perfumes that do not have samples are like a prescription of a supplement. You are supposed to take them for a month or more for a body condition. You do not receive a small sample as you are meant to wear it daily until it is gone.  These perfumes are protocols. A sample is only like a kiss instead of a full on embrace.  To receive the full benefit you will need a larger amount.

Also in the Infinity Collection I listed ingredients for two of the perfumes only. I find listing the essential oils and absolutes is a good idea so people can get an idea of what it might smell like. It can also alert people of their favorite ingredients are included. On the other hand I had a client that said she loved two perfumes of this collection but did not care for one ingredient in a third perfume.  My experience in teaching people how to create their own perfume, often the ingredients a person tells me they do not like are exactly the essential oils they need to wear.  This is an emotional response to an ingredient the client may have memories from childhood or their past where it was unpleasant, etc.  In life we often do not like what we need the most.

In my time creating private label lines for business owners I would have the client smell many essential oils and absolutes. They would be numbered with no names of the oils. The client would choose based on the number.  When I listed the names of the oils on the labels the client would not choose certain oils as they knew they did not like them. If they did not have a label those same oils would be picked as favorites.

Memorial Day Sale on Etsy

May 19th, 2022 by

Can you believe we are in May and the first nice weather holiday is upon us?

Memorial Day weekend is the beginning of camping season and spending more time at the lake.  Hiking, fishing, gardening… and just getting our feet in the grass and our fingers in the dirt. I am enjoying my vegetables and flower plants I started from seed.  My rose collection is growing … almost 40 roses in 2 years since I moved to North Carolina. They are hanging out in pots on my deck until they can move into their permanent home.  It is so much fun bringing in the roses and having them at my desk to waft all day long.

I have had some great offers on my company, my brand JoAnne Bassett. Until I receive the cash in my bank it remains for sale.

There are some beautiful vintage oils still available on my Etsy store under Perfumer’s Corner. These are precious and will keep for many years… I have owned some of these vintage oils since 1999.

My Memorial Day sale is 20% off my whole Etsy store.  It is easiest to have a sale on Etsy.  It starts today May 19 and ends May 30.

Remember all of my natural perfumes have royal and divine alchemy preformed on them. The energetic botanical perfumes smell beautiful and raise your vibrations and align you with your highest self. This will bring you more prosperity, more love, more joy, empowerment,  wonderful connections and miracles daily.

Have fun out there.. and remember Memorial Day is also a time of remembering our loved ones who have passed.  I lost my oldest sister this year .. she always loved flowers so I am sure her family will bring some lovely flowers to her resting place. Such a beautiful tradition.
