Jasmine is from my ancestors on my mom's side.

Ah Kay, didn't réalisé Jasmine was à last name.

Yeah I can't compare. My Jasmine blood is unknown to me.

And it's really strange because Jasmine is Persian not French.

But my DNA test and Family info says they were from France.

Languedoc (S France) specifically.  Associated with people who grew the plant .. perfumers.

Many species grown in many places

Can be used as an additive to tea.

The name is Latin, from Arabic, from Persian.  It is commonly a personal name for Persian girls.

Languedoc is the earliest civilized part of France, going back to the Greek colony at Marseille.

Ah ok.

My Ex's grandmother, when she came from Italy, thru Ellis Island, claimed her profession was "perfumer".

Actually, Baruch, "Languedoc literally means "language of oc". ... The Romance languages that were spoken in the south of France are collectively called langues d'oc or occitan, as opposed to the langues d'oil, which were spoken in the north of France."  Your French ancestors may have been "perfumers" (as mine were tailors), but that has nothing to do with "Languedoc".
