March 27th, 2015 by

Parma violets - duchess ...large

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

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.

March 21 is National Fragrance Day

March 21st, 2015 by

PetitTrinonBottle&DaylilyWeb

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!

Take the dauber and anoint yourself with a drop of this parfum… your reward is the immediate blossom of the neroli and orange blossom absolute. ?It quickly morphs into a plethora of soft roses, moving through a distinct note of ambergris.

Perfume Samples At Special Prices!

January 16th, 2015 by

Today I reduced the prices on all individual perfume samples, sample collections, and discovery kits. ?Why did I do that? ?I am selling 1 ml glass perfume vials and not the glass or plastic perfume sprayers. ?This keeps the sample costs lower and I can pass that savings on to you.

If I were to package everything in a deluxe sprayer or deluxe sprayer sets you would pay much more. ?Does it make sense to you to spend more for a sprayer?

If you think you may want a larger sprayer size I have 5 ml travel sprayers available. ?They have a glass refillable insert. ?These sprayers are housed in a metal shell and can go anywhere and not break.

Luscious Roses: A cure for the heart.

January 10th, 2015 by

Aldous posted this on Fragrance Daily.

Luscious Roses hi res

Luscious Roses: A cure for the heart.

?JoAnne? I asked, ?My hearts broken. I know you blend scents that heal metaphysically. I read it on your website. Can you help me??

?Why yes,? she said. ?Of course. I have something called Luscious Roses. Put a little on your chest above your heart daily. I?ll send you a sample. I hope it helps.?

I have never believed in any of the nonsense people say about healing via metaphysical means.?(Metaphysical: outside the realm of physical)

Until my heart shattered into a million pieces and all the medicine, and all the learning, philosophy, psychology, self help, ect in the world couldn?t help.

Looking outside the box for anything to heal me is how I came upon JoAnne Bassett and her perfumery.

Four days after my consultation I received my sample of Luscious Roses in the mail.

I put it on.

Just a tiny, tiny dab right above my heart.

It was so thick, oily, and there were flecks of . She doesn?t use perfumers alcohol, but instead Jojoba Oil. And I waited.

At first I was wondering where the rose was. Where was the scent? But it was cold, freezing in the winter and I figures that maybe the cold with the oil base was not allowing it to bloom so I decided to give it 30 minutes before I judged anything.

Fifteen minutes later with the heat of my heartbeat Luscious Roses started to bloom. ?I could smell the deepness of several shades of rose. The white of rare Bulgarian Alba Rose, the Pink of Cabbage Roses and the deep red of Bulgarian Damask Rose. Not the clean, simple, synthetic rose I?m used to. Actual rose. Deep, sensual, multi faceted and evocative.

When I was very young I used to go out and play amongst the roses of my grandmother?s rose garden. My tiny fingers digging in the dirt underneath the petals. Marveling at the blooms, the thorns, the leaves. Such happy peaceful memories this scent evokes.

The next note you notice is the vintage patchouli JoAnne uses.

My mother is one of those crazy flower children from the sixties. Her forever scent has always been a patchouli oil.

When I was younger I remember her wearing this deep and complex scent of earth. It?s unique spiciness always in a hug, a kiss on forehead. Now a days it seems as though patchouli just isn?t the same.

Except in Luscious Roses. The first time, in a long time I?ve smelled yet another rare scent of my childhood.

I also get the clear water of frankincense. Spicy, silver ephemeral on the deep rose petals that bloom above my heart now.

And the vanilla, Oh, the vanilla below it all. So creamy smooth, holding the composition together.

JoAnne? website, JoAnneBassett.com list tuberose as a note, but my nose fails to register it. It might just be the mastery and smoothness of the blending. I?m not sure.

Longevity is great. It lasted all day on me. Eight hours with a drop placed underneath my shirt. Sillage is very good, as long as you give it time for bloom, and some heat to help it along. This an oil base after all.

Altogether I rank it very high on my favorite roses. It?s actually masculine on me due to the earthiness of the patchouli and spiciness of the frankincense. Which is not what I was expecting. I was expecting something completely feminine.

And as for my heart, how does it feel now?

Happy. Peaceful and warm from the loving memories Luscious Roses has evoked.
