The Scented Djinn

This kyphi is not yet complete. The Scented Djinn is in the process of creating a lush, sweet lavender based kyphi incense which should be ready in about a month or so (six weeks, perhaps). Kyphi, once finished with the formulating, takes a few weeks to mature, sometimes not reaching its full aromatic potential for months, even years! It is the most amazing incense the world has to offer. So save up your ducats and keep an eye on the blog, or the Facebook page, or the Etsy Apothecary for the introduction of Lavender Kyphi Supreme.

Farat is a sweet spring themed eau de toilette featuring notes of jasmine, rose, neroli, lavender and bergamot, with rare notes of Buddha's hand citron and a lovely vegetal musk. Petitgrain and spices round out this precious scent. Served in three sizes: 15 ml spray, 10 ml roll-on, and 3 ml sample spray.

It's been a while since The Scented Djinn has presented an entirely new perfume. Years, in fact. This newest perfume offering is, we think, quite beautiful. Farat eau de Toilette ~ with notes of rare Buddha's hand citron, bergamot, neroli, petitgrain, rustic herbs and exotic spices, lush florals of jasmine and rose, and soft, warm musk. Watch for the announcement here when the perfume comes up for sale at The Scented Djinn Etsy Apothecary. We will be offering this perfume in 1/3 oz roll-on bottles, and 15 ml (1/2 oz) fine mist sprays.

Perhaps I'm biting off more than I can chew here (and I probably am), but I'm a little peeved that some customers don't leave feedback at The Scented Djinn's Etsy store after their purchase. Perhaps it's a case of being too nice to criticize, which is okay! Truly. If you are unhappy with your purchase, a private message and a workable solution is preferred over a full-on negative review in a public forum. I realize that not all my wares are your cup of tea, and that sometimes they may arrive in a 'defective' state, but I am willing to fix it if it's broken. On the other hand, if you're pleased, why not say so? Where it counts. On the Etsy reviews page. Every bit matters as I spend zero dollars on advertising. I'd much rather put my money back into the quality of the products I offer. It seems a much smarter disbursement of funds. Show your love. I'll show you mine in the goodies you buy. *How to leave feedback on Etsy. Go to '...
