I've been coming for a few years now and can't rave enough about their candle scents and store layout. The aromas that touch your nose will tingle your senses and have you ready to find that signature scent for whichever room you're looking to scent. From linen sprays to candles and oils, Slow North has you covered. Don't let the pricing be a deterrant as they are definitely well worth the investment. The burning time on their candles is really good and more of a slow burn. Take an opportunity to do a candle making class or participate in their other workshops!

The store is well stocked and clean, and the prices are very fair for the high quality sourcing as well as being locally made. The shop keeper was super informative and told me a lot about the brand, and the workshops they offer. I'll have to return to grab some gifts for people through the holidays.

Been following this owner for about a decade, she has always made really cool jewelry but this was…read moremy first time IN her store. Walking in I was drawn to everything she had, it was so hard to process what I wanted most. She carries the cutest Pfluggerville team gear including purse straps, headbands, boot bows, tshirts and more. She has stickers, candles, soap, magnesium rub, car fresheners, little plants, clothes, Jean jackets, sets, sweaters, tanks, shorts and even a mens's section. Price points were good, it's not cheap but it's not overly priced either, I thought everything was right on par with what I thought it would be for a Pfluggerville boutique. I got a pair of UT earrings for game days and will be back for a few of the clothing pieces I was swooning over.

They always are so welcoming and help me find exactly the scent profile I'm looking for, order anything that's not in stock for me, and you always get samples with your purchase! Also, having your luxury candles and perfumes wrapped up with care in a fancy bag just makes it a little extra special.

When you walk in, you're met with an array of fragrances that tantalize the nose. Since March, I have been working with Ethan, who has become one of my favorite people I've met. He's well versed in his products, listens to what I'm looking for, and encourages me to branch out. He also remembers the tiniest details of things I've told him, which help him to create a fragrance profile that evokes great memories. If you haven't been to Diptyque yet, I suggest stopping in, even for the experience. You won't be let down.

The garden center is always a highlight, and being an Ace Hardware means they somehow have every random item you didn't even know you needed. The sale table is dangerously good...

And yeah--the treats at the front are a nice bonus. Honestly, just a great, feel-good spot to get lost in for a bit. Hard not to walk out with the one thing you needed...so be warned!!
