Incense Resin/Wood Collection 2: 
Sold at a set.  Limited to 33 sets.  We may bring back individual vials at future Bastet Bazaars.  Incense resin or wood, hand crafted in 2 dram glass vials with cork stopper.  For burning on charcoal tablets or electric incense burners (not oil burners or melting wax pots).  Please keep well ventilated and away from smoke alarms.  We burn ours outdoors with the back door open to allow the scent to travel in.  Each set arrives in a dark blue velvet bag for safekeeping.

Gold & Silver Frankincense: Colored Frankincense of gold and silver.  Some uses for incense: magickal properties (or just for the enjoyment of incense), spirituality, consecration and meditation.

Red Rain: Beautiful colored sweet red Frankincense burned for protection, dispelling negativity, meditation, courage and consecration.

Red Sandalwood Powder for charcoal incense burning.  Place on hot incense charcoal disc and add some incense resin from the other vials to create a warm sweet wood aroma with the incense resin or burn alone for purification.  Red Sandalwood is from the rich red wood from the Red Sandalwood tree of South India.  It has been infused with sandalwood oil and is beautiful to add to other resins on your charcoal disc (or electric burner).  Healing, protection and wonderful sense of being.  Please do not inhale direct from vial as this is a fine red sandalwood powder.

Cairo White Copal: White Copal tree resin from Cairo, Egypt.  The word copal is derived from the Nahuatl language word copalli, meaning "incense".  For this dram we crushed some of the copal into powder (there is also small resin tears in the vial) as this is a different experience than simply placing the resin on the charcoal tablet to burn for incense.  You can always add a tiny bit of copal resin to other NA Incense resins to create an atmospheric offering to the sense of smell.  Purification, protection and loving ones' self are uses for copal.

Body Butter
Grapefruit & Vanilla Body Butter: Pure Vanilla Essential Oil, Aloe Vera Extract, Papaya Extract, Shea Butter, Water Cetearyl Alcohol, Sunflower Seed Oil, Coconut Oil, Grapefruit Peel & Oil, Sodium Citrate, Green Tea Extract, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Powder & Apricot Fruit Extract. 100% Organic Essential Oils  2oz in a cobalt blue glass jar.  The fragrance is for the opening and application, after, the body butter does its magic on the skin smoothly and luxuriously.  Non-greasy and organic ingredients. This is one of the few butters we use in the Studio for our own skin.  Offered here for the very first time to our customers.  If you'd like to enhance the scent, we suggest wearing with Bastet's Garden Pink Grapefruit Frankincense Crystalline perfume oil.  Do not wear on the same spot of the butter, but nearby so the butter continues its work on the skin without interruption.  Limited to 35 glass 2oz  jars.

Mini California White Sage Smudge Stick come in 3-4" per stick and are hand-tied for cleansing of the home, car and office space.  Please keep windows open as you cleanse the area and be aware of smoke alarms.  1 per customer please.  We hope to continually offering sage at future Bazaars.  You can always get another one at the next Bazaar.

Niki on Dec 14, 2018
This reminds me the slightest bit of my beloved Holiday Egyptian Gold Fig, from the beautiful Holiday Studio Limited collection a few years ago (part of the NAVAliday releases!). I think it's because the fig feels almost fresh and green, rather than the "brown" I often get from fig...but here's the thing, I don't care HOW they present fig, Nocturne Alchemy has me obsessed with this little fruit I had no idea I would ever like, and this beauty is no exception. The amber is bright and clean, and this just feels festive, I can see wearing this to a party. If you're thinking about it, don't miss out, it's absolutely beautiful, I love the balance of the fruit and resin, it feels golden and green and bright!

Bastet's Potion Studio: potion n. 23 -  Lily of the Valley, Italian Bergamot, Lemon zest, Skin Musk, Bastet’s Gold Amber, Ravensara and a drop of Ylang Ylang and Japanese Yuzu.
Niki on Dec 15, 2018
Potion number 23: Sleep Elixir's sexy sister, the one you don't keep hidden in the house. She's wearing a gauzy white dress, but trust me, she's casting an alluring spell.
When I first got this, I wasn't sure about it. It was almost too much floral, but aging this and revisiting it really knocked me over with a feather. I find myself reaching for it several days running. A beautiful white floral, the lemon zest isn't in your face at all but adds a really pretty zip that keeps this balanced for me. I'm becoming a big fan of Bastet's florals, they're alluring and very wearable even if you don't like florals - it's a category of scent I have always avoided, but blends like this are consistently changing my mind. The musk and amber I think give me that sensual feel, and help keep the florals balanced too. Bastet, you are amazing. đź’šđź’šđź’š
Cat on Dec 10, 2018
Oh, how I adore this scent. It is a soft, ladylike, gently sweet floral that has a timeless, vintage feel to it. The lemon brings a bright touch and the lily of the valley is very elegant. I'm so glad it came back, I wish it would join the permanent collection. I tried this as a decant last year, and have waited several months for my chance to get a full size. It's the perfect floral, it stays with me throughout the day, and I feel beautiful wearing it.

Lizzie on Dec 18, 2018
Eternal Egypt Gold is a beautiful white floral. The mandarin is a bright addition to the lavender and lily of the valley notes which are definitely the top notes upon application and the creamy vanilla binds them together, the lavender is not an herbal dominant here, it's just a tender wisp brushing the wrists. As the fragrance begins to warm upon the skin, the Amber adds depth and richness to what would otherwise be a light flirty scent. I feel like this is a scent for Girls Night Out, something to celebrate the connections we share with one another, honoring the feminine. The bottle is so pretty, and applying in evening light the gold bottle sparkles and the oil as it drips delicately from the bottle seems to flow like candlelight onto the wrists, the oil gently reflecting the gold from the bottle. It is a very pretty fragrance.

Eternal Ankh Green – White Ginger Incense, Ginger Essential Oil, Nutmeg, White Cinnamon, Cognac Absolute, Copal essential Oil, Dried Tonka Vanilla, NA Osirian Incense (SL Osirian Purnima), White Amber Absolute, Powdered and reconstructed oil of Egyptian Vanilla Husk, Vanilla fleck and Vanilla Absolute

Amy on Dec 18, 2018
THIS IS SO GOOD. The cardamom starts off strong, backed by the vanilla, and it's the variety I love that makes me long for cardamom buns and Sweden. Sadly, the cardamom diminishes in strength over time. I can still smell the cardamom after an hour, but I can't smell it after several hours of wear. It ends up being a Tahitian Vanilla Bastet's Ice Cream blend at the end of the day. I get some of the soft, billowy Crystalline vanilla, but the Tahitian is the star here. I really enjoy this. I just wish the cardamom had decided to stick around longer!

Amy on Dec 18, 2018
This smells like a Lofthouse cookie (you know, the soft sugar cookies covered in a thick layer of frosting and adorned with sprinkles? But there aren’t any sprinkles here). In the bottle and on my skin, I get Lofthouse cookie frosting dipped into Bastet’s Ice Cream. The vanilla frosting is the main player. I would say it’s about 95% frosting and 5% cookie. Not buttery at all. It ends up being a lovely mix of vanillas (Bastet’s Ice Cream and Crystalline) after several hours of wear. The vanillas in this are wonderful. Must. Resist. Licking!

Jeanette on Dec 19, 2018
I'm getting a lot of soft, cottony myrrh and benzoin here. It ends up hazy resins and white woods with a hint of fir tree. Ooh and at the very end, I'm getting vanillic sandalwood with palo santo. Very mysterious and well-blended!

Vampire Cardamom Bat – Organic Sri Lankan Cardamom, Cardamom Pods aged in Oak and sifted, Kobalt, Crystalline, Tahitian Vanilla, French and Bourbon Vanille infused into Organic steam-distilled Patchouli Essential Oil.
Margo on Dec 17, 2018
It is mostly Cardamom with just a touch of the Patchouli bat that we all love. If anyone is unsure of strong Patchouli then this is the one to get. The vanilla is surprisingly non-foody or sweet especially for being paired with Cardamom. Not a crazy strong throw unlike Sienna Bat or as stunning as say Santalum & Cardamom but highly recommended, especially for Cardamom lovers. 



Holiday Studio Limited:

Cherry Bourbon Vanille – Cherry Extract, Cherry Skin, Bourbon Vanille (new SL) with touches of almond, pistachio, gold sweet tobacco and white musk.  A beautiful Holiday perfume to layer with your favourite NA Studio Limited perfumes.  Add Santalum.  Add a drop of Kashmir.  Add Crystalline.  It is a beautiful blend on its own and more personalized with a drop of your favourite SL.  This perfume is a Holiday Studio Limited but will never join the Studio Limited.  It is available during the 2018 NAliday season only.  For more Bourbon Vanille, please visit the Studio Limited Originals where the new Bourbon Vanille is available.  To layer, a drop of the original Bourbon Vanille on the skin and on the other wrist, the new Holiday Cherry Bourbon Vanille.  Allow them to touch but do not press too deeply; molecules are fragile.  Enjoy~
