Le Voyage (2000)
by JoAnne Bassett

Le Voyage parfum by JoAnne Basset is a proof that pure, natural florals can sparkle and be delightful and light!

The voyage starts with a citrus flight – mandarin orange that is uplifting and slightly grassy-green note of listea cubeba. These compliments the heart of Rose essence, which is of superior quality – bright, sweet and fruity.
The Rose is supported by Jasmine and Linden Blossom absolute – together creating an accord that is Spring evoking and youthful, and at the same time ripe, luscious and mysterious.
The voyage captivates you even more upon landing the base notes – the grounding notes of sacred Sandalwood and Frankincense underline this beautiful bouquet and create a warm, comforting aura that leads you into an internal voyage full of delights and joy. The roses in full bloom are mysterious and velvety-soft, and bring internal harmony.

Le Voyage is an excellent perfume for the Spring –floral, fresh and light, yet with a warm, rich and enveloping dry down. The ingredients are of superior quality, which makes the experience of Le Voyage spiritual and therapeutic.

The Eau de Toilet is lighter and fresher, and the linden blossom note is more pronounced. I love the velvety softness of the Parfum, but I think the lightness of the EDT is very appealing.
However, both are essentially very similar and are equally floral and evocative of Spring!
