    Max is the best. His stuff is beautiful. His birthday cards are the best, and half the price of lost cards. And his gift wrapping is exquisite. Will do for you for free if you buy something. So refreshing that there is someone with genuine good taste and standards still around in gift retail!!

    And Max, the owner, was so incredibly accommodating -- gift wrapping and offering to ship our purchases for us.

    I'm so glad I stumbled upon this store!! It's the cutest shop with a wide variety of scents. They…read morehave a focus on non-alcoholic and organic smells, which isn't a priority for me, but it's nice. I absolutely love the gardenia scent and am hoping it holds! The prices here are not too crazy. A lot of these essential oil/soap stores will overcharge, but I thought this place was reasonable. You can get a small bundle of items for $28, a potent diffuser with 15 mL of essential oil for $18, and the soap bars are around $5. They also have a happy hour sale! Very worth it for local, small batch scents, which I usually see going for more. The two women working there today were super welcoming and sweet as well. I will definitely be coming back :)

    I had the most enriching fragrance-blending class experience at Scents By the Bay! The moment I…read morewalk-in, Tarah and Kiki made me feel at home. They were super friendly, highly knowledgable, & answered all my questions. Their passion & positive vibes were contagious. Being a fragrance lover who blends scents at home, I appreciated the clear, beautifully crafted guidance. The class balanced simplicity for beginners with deep educational insights. On top of that, their fragrance selection was unbelievable--literally a library of scents! They had over 700 options, from designer oils to pure essential and aromatherapy scents. As someone who's taken other classes with fairly small options, having such an eclectic, rare selection to choose from was next level. This was a perfect act of self-care after a busy weekend, and I left with new knowledge, a beautiful custom fragrance, and immense joy. This truly was a one-of-a-kind experience. Highly recommend! I love supporting local businesses and see myself being a frequent customer--probably will pop-in once or twice a month! I am excited to bring friends here for birthdays and special occasions. Already, planning to bring my husband for a date--so we can create a fragrance together! I'm just thrilled that something like this exists right here in the East Bay. This experience was a gem, and I can't wait to return again and again!

Recommend arriving 10-15 mins early, as stated on their instructions, to settle in. Our session was with another group of 4 that all arrived 10-20 mins late which pushed everything back. There's only street parking in this area, which can take a while to find (free on Sundays). The studio is clean and airy, very zen. The first room is the workshop area, while the adjacent room is where their in-house candles are made. Our session started with Ro explaining how JIA came about, what to expect, and brief icebreaker intros. As prep before making the candles, we had a chance to then sample and guess the 24 unmarked candle scents on the back wall, followed by a short discussion with the rest of the group (don't worry, you get the answer sheet afterwards :P). It was fun seeing how different people perceive scents... I only got 4 of 24 correct LOL The candle making portion is mostly blending scents and then putting the actual candle together (sticking the wick down, pouring the wax, doodling the label). We left the studio to let the candles harden (1.5~ hours) and came back to an array of "toppings" to decorate. I chose a few wax hearts and dried herbs. $70 per person isn't too bad for the overall experience! Each piece was thoughtful and engaging. Would be great for any occasion.

    Ancient Ways has such a sparkling vibe: but my favorite part of Ancient Ways is the opportunity to…read moredo a tarot reading with Bear Paw! I love being able to receive wisdom both from indigenous Bear Medicine and the orishas of Santeria. Bear Paw's multiracial lineage gives them a fresh approach on spiritual questions. But the best part is the way Bear Paw supports me through making needed changes in my life. It's rare to find spiritual support that is both compassionate AND forceful, and Bear Paw is definitely both. That's the magic of Bear Medicine, I guess. When you think about it, in nature, bears are fuzzy and adorable-- but they are also HUGE and STRONG. So be prepared for that strong Bear Medicine, okay? It's a good thing! Sometimes it takes a bear to push me off my ass and make me deal with my shit. We all need that, right?! Over the years, Bear Paw has helped me navigate my father's death, the reconstruction of my sexual self-image following a nasty divorce, and most recently, preparing for new partnership and motherhood. If you are navigating a challenging transition, Bear Paw is a powerful guide to have. I also love the way Ancient Ways will dress your candles for you and help you get whatever you need while staying within your budget. It really is so affordable. All my altar candles are Ancient Ways at this point I think.

    I've been coming here for almost two years. The staff is great, but Bear Paw is the GOAT. I have a…read morestrong connection with her. Her candle dressing skills are incredible. Once, she put a car in my candle; I asked how she knew I was trying to buy a new car. She said she felt it. I've been burning candles with the intention of buying a fully loaded MY performance. Two weeks later, I was approved with a 1% interest rate, and I'm now driving my new car. Just so you know, these things don't happen overnight; I've been burning candles every full moon since September 2025. On June 19th, 2026 Bear Paw brought the candle to its final stage, and my thoughts came to fruition. I'm now working on freeing myself from all whom try to have Dominance over me. I'm confident I will soon be free of these strong holds and forces and I will use them all as my foot stool. I love Ancient Ways and I love me some Bear Paw. She works on Thurs & Sunday. Tell her Nube said hi.
