The Scented Djinn

The Scented Djinn's perfumer, Justine, was interviewed last May by Samara Botane proprietress Marcia Elston. It's an interesting read, if I say so myself.

Yep, that's right. Free shipping on all US orders over $35 until January 5th, 2011. Reduced shipping is offered for those outside of the Continental US on orders over $35 until January 5th, 2011. The Scented Djinn is still accepting custom orders for butters, balms, perfume oils and solids until December 18th, after which time there is no guarantee your item will reach its destination before December 25th. Happy Holidays!

After a series of prophetic dreams (yes, I do believe in that "stuff") directing me to make The Scented Djinn Etsy Apothecary just that-- an apothecary-- I have slowly but surely been doing so. I'm removing all the liquid parfums and placing them on ArtFire in an all indulgent luxury layout, while at Etsy I'm sticking with my roots. Where I began in this journey which led me to where I am today was as a magic maker, a novice root worker, someone who put a little mystery of the mojo into the soaps and body oils and elixirs along with the plant healing and aromatherapy. Those were the good old days. In the next few months watch for the phasing out completely of the liquid high end parfums on Etsy, and the incoming-- what? Wholesome, natural, high quality, simple skin care products, solid aromatics, and hand distilled hydrosols.
