I love the Papa Legba symbol print I bought for a friend. (I'm not into this kind of thing, but my…read morefriend was fascinated by Papa Lega after having watched the entire "Coven" season on "American Horror Story.") The Miel de Amor (Honey of Love) perfume is also nice if you like a nice cheap perfume to daub on as needed. (It's marketed as an aphrodisiac in Santeria circles, but I just like its sweet, honey-laden fragrance as, well, an everyday scent once in a while.) The staff at El Cacique was prompt, friendly, and helpful on my last visit, and not at all concerned about why some gay, bald assed white dude from Okla-Freakin'-Homa was shopping around with his equally skeptical husband in an NYC botanica.

Amaffi Perfume House is an opulent scented emporium with stunning fragrances. Ranging from three…read morethousand dollars to seven thousand one hundred dollars, these exquisite bottles are sumptuous looking and some have Swarovski crystals on them. Catering to the very rich this parfumerie is from France where the owner's great grandmother anonymously made a perfume for Napoleon Bonaparte. As I entered, I said that I could ill afford even one bottle but as a lover of niche fragrances I wanted to feast my eyes on these beauties. With kindness I was shown around and Naveen described the notes for each of the thirty nine perfumes. This was impressive. From each section, I was given a blotter (strip) and I chose a perfume with oudh. Finally I was asked what perfume I would like to have sprayed on me? I chose Black Jasmine and was also given the pretty catalogue.

From the owner: With all fragrances created in Grasse, France, the brand treats the creation of fragrances and the…read moreproduction of perfumes very selectively, attracting only outstanding perfumers and the best ateliers. AMAFFI perfumers have complete freedom of creativity, time, and unlimited choice of raw materials, including the rarest and most valuable flowers and plants grown all over the world. Sustainability values are imperative to all that AMAFFI stands for and the use of natural elements is at the heart of the brand. AMAFFI’s design bureau conceives each bottle from the finest crystal hand-decorated with exquisite materials to reflect the character, mood and name of each fragrance, embodying the highest level of craftsmanship.

I would give this business zero stars if I could. I could not believe the odasity of the man who…read moreruns that place. He is a racist against women and other cultures such as Hispanics and blacks. I went in the store and I was picking out some things and as I was getting them I was bringing them to the counter. But as I was doing that I started to notice that he was watching and commenting on my every move and kept on asking me about why I went back to look at something. I said oh I want to see if you had another color I like. Well, he was making a big deal out of me walking back to get an extra color. Well I didn't even make a big deal out of it. Then I went to grab a shampoo. So I picked up about 3 bottles and I was reading them to make sure I was buying the correct one for my hair type. Well all of a sudden he starts yelling at me about reading all the labels, he said that I was taking to long and that was touching everything. I only touched the items that I was buying. I told him to quit talking to me so rudely and to have some respect and that I was a valued customer and he could not talk to me like that. Then I was paying for my stuff and he had given me the bag and then he ripped the bag out of my hands in a very violent way. It was a horrible experience and I will not be going to leave my money at that rude and racist persons establishment. There are many other beauty supply stores in Hudson country that will gladly appreciate my Buisness and treat me with dignity and respect. I suggest you go somewhere else unless you want to be treated rudely and with disrespect.

I love this Walgreens, and especially the Pharmacy. Maria and Linsey (Main pharmacist) are the…read moreepitome of customer service - something Walgreens the enterprise as a whole has lost its soul. Not this location. Pharmacy : I have been to so many Pharmacies where it is chaotic. Patients and consumers are on edge, and the staff have to "ask a supervisor" making things slow just like the "healthcare ecosystem" But the real MVPs are in the pharmacy. These folks run the place like a well-oiled (and very patient) machine. They're efficient, kind, and even manage to make the whole "waiting for your prescription" thing oddly tolerable. If pharmacies gave out Michelin stars, this one would at least get a solid nomination. Interior & Staff outside of Pharmacy: Stepping into this Walgreens feels like walking into a well-lit cave of convenience -- bright, clean, and with just enough background music to make you forget why you came in. The non-pharmacy staff are a friendly bunch who somehow manage to juggle stocking shelves, scanning coupons, and helping lost souls like me find batteries, all with impressive calm. Layout & Inventory: The layout isclear. Call it tight, but people (demographic is hispanic and very diverse) are not on edge and will move out of way. I have seen people dance to the music. Walgreens: snacks next to shampoo (because why not), a seasonal aisle that's always one holiday ahead, and a clearance section that feels like a treasure hunt designed by a caffeine enthusiast. Everything's easy enough to find once you stop being distracted by the candy displays. Found some amazing dog treats at half off. Thank you - specific to this Walgreens

I've been a fan ever since my husband introduced me to this brand and we've had nothing but great experiences. Lucia is incredible at establishing rapport with her clients and when I stop by I always get little gifts for my loved ones. "Give this to your husband, I know he likes this one." Or "here's a little gift, thanks for stopping by." I love their distinctive star shaped bottles, I would love to start a collection but I just can't seem to veer from my favorite scent! It's a luxury brand with a New York-centric concept and the first NY perfumerie headed by a woman--what's not to love? Stop by, ask for Lucia, smell to your heart's content, and leave with your new signature fragrance--maybe even a cute lipstick too!

Well, the company is still here, thriving I might add, and the bottles are still awesome. We stopped into this location, back in the winter, and I turned my wife on to the brand. Lucia, who runs this location, is an expert on all things Bond No. 9. She has a sharp memory, and keeps records and notes of all your purchases. She'll even make spot on recommendations, and hook you up with some samples. They rarely do sales, but Lucia will let you know when they are happening. On your next trip into NYC, please stop in.
