California luxury botanical perfumer, JoAnne Bassett has created an ultimatum; the aroma of a sybarite. The word is defined as, ?someone dedicated to luxury and pleasure.?? Somewhat of an anthem for any perfume, JoAnne follows through in her work, using a stock of oils she collected in her global travels in the 80’s and 90’s. The name Sybarite arrived by coming across the term in Conde Nast magazine, and finding it fitting for herself, JoAnne naturally turned this term into an olfactory concept. While available in many options, JoAnne works with a local glass blower who makes artisan bottles for her collections, in this case a blue bottle the color of churning, bubbling seawater encased inside a book box complete with hand sewn pillow, involving yet another local artisan.

Not that I am overly familiar with such things, but somehow Sybarite is the inside of a Louis Vuitton steamer trunk- bought for Audrey Hepburn and ready to be filled for the voyage across the sea. There is a self-proclaiming sophistication about Sybarite’s opening, a body of Bulgarian rosa damascena v. alba purchased in 1999 (white rose otto-? JoAnne refers to this as the ?flower of Light?) and Egyptian rose otto hobnob with neroli, orange blossom and osmanthus.? A botanical Hermes scarf with apricot osmanthus jam criss-crossing and encircling orange blossoms. Already, there can be no mistake- this is an aroma of refinement. While mellow and approachable- nothing has been spared Sybarite’s gilded presence.

Sybarites find ways to support their indulgences and the perfume supports itself upon, what else? More luxury. Poised upon botanical musk and oud, finally it’s revealed where the steam trunk illusion came from and it makes for a not quite leather but born to be spilled into fine leather handbags aroma. Oud is certainly carrying the osmanthus fruit hint and the musk is proof positive of worn clothes tossed casually for the jaunt. This expensive base accord gives Sybarite longevity and projection with a ?look but don’t touch? perimeter. Cistus has been added to keep anything musk well-groomed and frankincense to remind one of good manners and a lightness which Sybarite carries.

Sybarite natural perfume

A collection of notes which calls for beauty, Sybarite is the classic refinement which fulfills the homage of it’s name. Notes: Bulgarian white rose otto, orange blossom absolute, osmanthus absolute, neroli oil, Damask rose absolute (Egypt), hydro-distilled frankincense, oud-agarwood, natural musk, and cistus.

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.

With a ?new year comes a new attitude…and a new season. ?What do you choose to smell like in the new year?

What are you fond of? ?Fragrances with floral notes? ?Fragrances that smell of wood, incense, or amber notes?

How about forest and fir needles, juniper, pine or more? Oakmoss and deep green notes are popular in the winter and cooler weather. ?What do you want to revel in?

Natural Perfume Stocking Stuffers from JoAnne Bassett come in all shapes and sizes. A wonderful present for men and women is a package of eau de parfum samples that you can choose just for them. Individual natural perfume samples of the More Life Collection?and the Limited Edition Collection?are some of my favorites.

On the Samples page you can find all of the Collection Discovery Sets?that are another great idea.

Did you know you can feel more confident, successful, joyful, and happy just by applying a natural perfume? ?When you spray on that natural eau de parfum you receive the amazing plant energy?that supports your body. ?Are you aware that using 100% natural perfumes you are receiving the aromatherapy benefits of the essential oils? ?These benefits have been documented and studied and written about in books. This is scientific proof that the essential oils have the power to shift your energy.

Some of my clients come to me for intuitive readings…they usually want to know the same information. ?It is primarily three focal points…love/relationships, money, and health. ?How to attract love, how to be more abundant, how to feel better and have more energy.

I am also a Certified Aromatherapist and when I create natural perfumes for my collections I use the essential oils and absolutes that would assist people with these areas. ?So to help us receive love I use rose otto, lavender, neroli – which is also good for self esteem, mandarin, sweet orange, and Roman chamomile. ?There are essential oils that can be used for letting go, for guilt, help with forgiveness, and unworthiness. ?This list just cracks the surface of the healing powers of the essential oils. ?Now let me be clear…this is not for synthetic fragrances..this is for natural perfumes made only with 100% essential oils. ?Just because a company lists lemon, lavender, rose, etc. ?does not mean this is from a natural source. ?Does it say that in their advertising they use 100% natural essential oils. ?Why do you assume that it is? ?Synthetic perfumes have been made for a very long time without using any natural oils. ?I often get people saying that they use xx rose fragrance. ?I get close to them and choke. ?It is totally synthetic and cheap fragrance oil. ?The price of the fragrance will be your first clue.

We can take it a step further..do you want to feel supported and empowered in your life? ?Many women help everyone else including their children, their husband or partner, and their co workers. ?When do they take time to empower themselves? ?They continually give their power away…and the next thing you know they have a dread dis-ease as their body decides to stop. ?Wake up call!

When we get blocks in our energy flow our life becomes a chaotic and drama filled mess. The old go with the flow no longer works and the stress piles on and we become overwhelmed. ?This holiday season seems to be filled with stress and worry.

Ok so let’s change the channel. ?How about reaching for that fragrance first thing in the morning that makes you feel good, uplifted and joyful. ?That may be Le Voyage eau de toilette a fragrance that is good for work as it is not so strong. ?With a citrus blast it warms into a wonderful jasmine, heart opening Bulgarian white rose, a meditative pink lotus and ?frankincense incense and dries into a powder of vintage Mysore sandalwood.

My days begin with a fragrance that makes me feel good so the day gets off on the right foot. ?I also reach for my Luscious Roses eau de parfum for evening to keep my heart chakra wide open.

Please consider these ideas when shopping for holiday gifts. ?You may want to give yourself the gift of empowerment! It is so easy to do. ?A spray in the morning makes all of the difference.
