CaFleureBon Blogathon Breast Cancer Awareness “Reflections” by JoAnne Bassett 10/20/11 + Draw for the Cure

 

 

Breast Cancer and cancer in general is a subject that has affected me.  My Sister had breast cancer, I have had cancer, and my Mother died of cancer.  My Mother had a number of cancers.  She was a very strong woman.  I trust it never touches your family.

 

 

 Conjuring the elements-Nicole Gleave

In terms of the aromatherapeutic effects, Reflections Parfum contains centifolia rose otto that opens and heals the heart, neroli (orange blossoms) works on raising self esteem, various citrus oils for uplifting, vanilla absolute makes you feel at home in your body and comforted, Mysore sandalwood is centering and helps you get in touch with your sensuality. Oud helps you get in touch with your Spiritual side, boronia, tuberose, and other florals awaken the female aspect and helps you feel joy in your body.

    This bottle is breathtaking! Its like a piece of art. I donated again today ref# VXYEF45C992.
    . I am making this donation to honor my college friends Nicoles mother whom was lost to breast cancer 4 years ago. I think of her often such a sweet soul.xo
    Thankyou Caflurebon and all the generous donors too:)

  • Feliciag says:

    Im sorry I read this wrong and thought I could choose the juice…. Alas it contains Reflections.but In my own defense I was multitasking. Moreover there were aweful cartoon jingles in the background:) I do love this bottle and I am mesmorized by it and reflections sounds as wonderful as the bottle looks. My donation today was $5. xoxo thanks all:)

  • Anya says:

    JoAnne is a very generous, kind soul, the type who you would name as a healer. Her perfume donation to the series shows her generous spirit and the winner will be a very lucky person.

  • Tama says:

    What a wonderfully generous gift!! I would love to be in this draw for Reflections. My donation the other day should cover this one, too, but I will donate more later if I can.

  • Cynthia says:

    First, I am saddened that cancer has touched Joanne’s family. She has made a very generous donation, offering the very best from her product line. This is the most swoon worthy bottle ever, and I have no doubt that Reflections is just as beautiful. I have been testing some of her scents lately and I can attest to their healing power. I was going through a very stressful time and I kept being drawn to these scents. They smell wonderful, of course, but more than that, when I applied them I was filled with a feeling of wellbeing. I would be honored to be included in this draw.
    I have made another donation. I donated $25 and the reference code is VUHE7E6AC2E0

  • brigitte says:

    I have heard nothing but wonderful things about Joanne’s perfumes but have never sampled any of her creations. I would love to be entered in this draw. Again, many thanks to CaFleureBon and all of the perfumers who so generously contributed!

  • brigitte says:

    The generosity of the readers has truly inspired me. Although I already donated $35 by mail I bit the bullet ( I usually don’t like my credit card number out there in cyberspace-yes, I am one of those who phones in every order 🙂 ) and donated another $50 on line. Ref number is VUJE7E6E73EC. My best friend from childhood lost her mother to breast cancer when she was only 19. A beloved co-worker is losing her battle with lung cancer. And I have been battling skin cancer myself. Thank you to all who have donated and a big hug to Michelyn and others who have made this all possible!

  • JoAnne Bassett says:

    Thank you all for your donations!

    I think my Reflections parfum in the handblown glass bottle will be a keepsake for anyone who collects perfume bottles.

    Thank you.

    JoAnne
