Die dunkelhaarige Dame, die oben bei dem mac Aufsteller am 18.08 tätig war, war sehr aggressiv und…read morealles andere als kompetent. Ich wollte ein Produkt testen, wo nichtmal etwas raus kam und die Dame hat mich sehr energisch, aggressiv und genervt von der Seite ermahnt, dass ich den Spiegel bitte nicht dreckig machen solle. Problem an der ganze Sache ist ,dass der Spiegel bereits vorher sehr verdreckt war und aus dem Produkt wie oben schon gesagt nichtmal etwas raus kam. Ich stellte mich also weiter weg und sie ist daraufhin histerisch und äusserst aufgebracht zu dem Spiegel gerannt und hat vor sich hin geflucht und es waren auch noch Beleidigungen zu hören. Diese Dame gehört meiner Meinung nach nicht in den Verkauf bzw. sollte aus dem Kundenkontakt entfernt werden, da sie der Grund war, warum wir uns sehr unwohl in der Filiale gefühlt haben und den Laden daraufhin verlassen haben.

Four stars for the opening hours: it is open on Sundays and until 10pm! Right at the train station,…read moreit is perfect for last minute gifts before trips (including hundreds of bottles of the omnipresent kölnisch Wasser), travel size supplies, or 9pm post train trip lipstick and mascara emergencies. Two stars for the customer service: at times there are more sellers than clients and you cannot make a step without being questioned about what you need (avoid eye contact), anxiogenic sellers trying to force you to buy, and impolite cashiers that do not even say hello or thank you. In most perfume shops at least they ask if you want this or that sample: here they just give you what they want without asking. This is how I ended up with a Roberto Geissini perfume sample. I had to google him. How does one say 'tamarro' in German?

Is it touristy? Yes. But is it fun? Also yes!…read more We booked quick one hour tour online ahead of time and our tour person was dressed in period dress which was fun. It was interesting to learn about the history of cologne and walk around downstairs to look at historical items. We also got to sniff a bunch of scents that were/are commonly used in perfume. They also gave us a tiny bottle of the original cologne scent to take home which was lovely. It's not expensive and worth it!

I told her she would've fooled me that she's not part of the Farina family already! She was the best tour guide we had in our 2 1/2 weeks in Europe! Even if you're not interested in cologne or perfume, take this tour and gaze at the hundreds of years of history right there in that building. Can you tell we love the visit? This afternoon, my 27 year-old daughter, and I attended the MAKE your own fragrance class at the store. Like the tour, it was next level excellent! Alicia taught our class and did an amazing job. Smart, outgoing, and really patient with all of us. Wouldn't experience all around today! Thank you to everyone that, Farina!
