Happy New Year!!

Hello my friends..

It's been a while...the holidays have kept me busy. I've been busy blending things that will be added to the website soon. Some working names to tease a bit: Winter Flowers, Vanilla Patchouli, Soft Patchouli, Black Rose, Amber Rose. I've also added edps to the website and reduced a few prices on top sellers.

I just want to say thanks to all the lovely people who have given me support over the last year-it is much appreciated. When I thought I couldn't do it, people lifted my spirits and gave me the boost I needed. Thank you so much for being there:)

Wishing you and your families Happy New Year!!

Edp's coming soon...

Hi Everyone!

Very soon, edp's will be available in many CJS scents. They will be packaged in 1/2 oz atomizers for $20 each (between 35-40% oils). With edp's (and oils), it's so hard to send them without leaks (if any of you have swapped with me, you know I'm an avid electrical tape fanatic!) I pose a question to you...would you prefer things taped (not over labels of course) to ensure a safe arrival or not? Drop me a line and let me know your thoughts. I know it doesn't look very professional, but the swapper in me is making me ask.

It's been a good first two weeks...thanks for all the support and well wishes:) Be safe and I'll talk to you soon....

I have registered my domain!

Hi everyone..

Some exciting news!! Today I registered my domain as http://www.cjscents.com.
In the next week (hopefully) I will move everything there and probably won't list on etsy anymore. I'm still trying to decide if I'll be able to do both or not.

Other news...I've got some blends coming up for fall:Pumpkin Patch (patchouli and pumpkin), Vanilla Autumn (vanilla, spices and musk), Vanilla Autumn Night (same blend with frankincense, myrrh and amber added), Amber Coffee, and Vanilla Musk. Also on the horizon is edp's.

Thanks so much for all the ladies who have ordered so far...I really appreciate your business:)

New Website on it's way!!

Hi All..

I'm working hard behind the scenes to create a website to sell from. It should be ready in a week or two. I'm also going to list some new fragrances and if you order a sample pack, you will be able to choose 8 different ones now.

Also on the horizon is edp's (in limited scents-some EO's, fragrance oils or absolutes don't like to mix with alcohol, so it will be on a case by case basis)

Until next time...

New Etsy shop..

Happy Sunday to everyone...

I'm still taking email orders, but wanted to give a heads up that I have an Etsy shop in the works...the link is here:

http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5228310

I'll be slowly listing things over there, so take advantage of the email pricing for now:)

Have a great day!

Ordering....

Hi Everyone:)

I'm having some labeling issues right now, so you may have an oval label on bottles ordered as shown or you may have a wrap around label. It's very hard to format the labels I bought to match the bottles I bought and I am waiting on new sample ones to be able to choose new ones.

Now for the fun part:)

For a limited time, you can purchase a full set of sample vials (they are filled 75% full with oil) for $18 inc. shipping. You can also opt to buy bottles and if you reach a $30 order-shipping is on me (first class to the CONUS) . Don't forget to choose a free sample with each bottle. Samples separately are $2.50.
1/4 oz splash bottles are $18
1/2 oz roll-ons are $35


You can now email me at cjurko@comcast.net with orders. Remember that I am a one woman operation that also works full time and has a family, but will always do my best to get orders out/emails returned ASAP. I don't have access to email at work though, so if it takes a bit to get back to you-that's why. If you can let me know what you are interested in purchasing and your paypal address when you email me, it will speed up the process. If you are an international customer and want to purchase-email me and as long as my schedule permits, I can do it. (or if you don't mind waiting a couple extra days for me to get to the post office)

Thanks and have a great week.

Coming Soon...

Hi Everyone!!

Here's the scoop-this will be the temporary home of CJScents for now while building a website:) This is going to be my stepping stone. Later this week, I'm going to post pics of the bottles and officially open for orders. I want to do a free shipping promo on orders over a certain amount (most likely $30) and sample packs that will include shipping. I've worked hard on pricing and have decided for now to do average pricing (meaning that instead of one fragrance costing $40 for 1/4 oz and one costing $12 for 1/4 oz-I've taken an average cost of the oils, plus bottles...you get the picture:)

So here's what I've come up with for now (may have to increase when a permanent website is built since the costs will be higher).

1/4 oz perfume oils $18 (over 50 % fragrance oils, essential oils, absolutes)
1/2 oz perfume oils $35
samples $2.25
You will be able to choose one free sample with each bottle for now...

Shipping will be modest and ins. will be optional (I will post all this upon opening) I want there to be no surprises in costs.

More info coming up...thanks and take care for now.

Hi and Welcome to CJScents!!

For a long time, I've been a fragrance lover....it only made sense that in time, I would wander into making fragrances too. About 2 years ago, I started experimenting and it has taken a long time for me to be able to purchase oils that I've needed to make the things I've wanted. Coming soon, I will offer samples and bottles of perfume oils. I'll have to have orders emailed to me for now because I'm still testing the waters and don't want to put (even) more money into a website, set up a shopping cart (who knew this would cost so much??) and pay paypal fees too. All these would cause price increases that I don't want to pass along to you.

Stay tuned for more info on ordering or if you have any questions, email me at :

cjurko@comcast.net

Talk to you soon...
