    Amazing experience! I attended an girls event here and loved making my own fragrance and lotion. There is a lot of different scents/aromas to chose from. To me they all smelled great! I cant really pick wrong because they have something for everyone. The instructions were very clear, store organized and clean. I enjoyed the process and found it relaxing and much fun! I felt like a scientist making the next popular fragrance brand!

    This is such a great concept!!! At Aroma Labs, you can create your own custom scent. As you walk in, you'll be guided to the sink to wash your hands with their shower frosting...which you'll probably want to buy after you try it, or at least I did since my hands were left smelling so nice. After that, you get to pick a seat at one of the tables that contain a bunch of scents. You create an account using the QR code at the table, and then the person comes over and explains what to do with all the scents, granted there are instructions once you create your account too. You can to sniff the various scents, mark in the website which are your favorites, and then you try combining some of your favorites to make a custom scent. You can save up to 5 different custom scents to your account which you can then order whatever product you want to have the custom scent. My bf and I went here to try to make a nice custom scent for our apartment, since I'm a big fan of reed diffusers but also picky on scents...so we wound up agreeing upon two scents that we liked and bought 2 reed diffusers. Once you order via the website the custom scent you just made (while in the store) , it only took them like...5-10 min to make the 2 reed diffusers. They did say it can take up to 30 min depending on how much you order and how busy they are. I will say though, I went on a Saturday afternoon and it wasn't too bad for waiting for the reed diffusers to be made with the custom scents! I've already tried out one of the reed diffusers and my apartment smells heavenly. I will definitely be back!!! I also heard they offer 20% off refills if you bring back the empty container which is awesome! Only after I walked out of this place did I realize I prolly should've made a custom scent for my mom and bought her something as a gift, since I know what she likes scents wise and she's even pickier than me! Oh well, next time!

    Came here on a weekday as a walk-in and was able to get in and out while having a great time. Alicia was super helpful and friendly. The music playing was perfect for the space and vibe. I'm so happy with my purchases, I can't wait to make more and reorder what I did make. Definitely recommend this to anyone who loves good smells, you can make a wide range of things which I thought was cool. I made a cologne, perfume, and beard oil. I was so excited, I used it immediately after leaving. Such a great experience, and a fun way to find out what scents you like.

    Had a really good time and learning experience! So many amazing scents to choose from. The options/selections will leave you wanting to walk out with everything in the store! Jasmine was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. She guided us in making a creation we could be proud of.

    I found this after getting a pastry from Seedo's Levantine Bakery (a Palestinian-owned bakery) and…read moreneeded to get flowers for a my of mate. It's such a lovely shop tucked away on Dearborn; the Monadnock Building's history is fascinating too that's all captured in its Wikipedia page. Field & Florist has niche perfumes and divine, custom floral arrangement services, but I came specifically for the latter; I highly, highly recommend them if you're looking for unique fragrances and/or florals. You can also purchase your own stems to make your own bouquet, but if you have an inspiration (yet are short on time), I highly recommend using their serviecs to curate a beautiful bouquet. You can also work with them to pair a fragrance with your florals - I cannot wait to be back in Chicago to stop by them again! If you enter from the street, stay focused on the stairs; if you need wheelchair/mobility impaired access, I'd go through the side building access (by Intelligentsia). All doors are heavy either way, so be careful there too. For floral arrangements: Let them know what your inspiration is and your budget, and they'll work with you. For me, it was Sriracha tofu and I was looking for something under $100; and the florist definitely came through. I loved how quickly they picked up on the white and red themes, and incorporated the The entire experience was extremely low pressure and its a very clam environment. They make sure to ask if you need a wet bag if you won't be able to get your flowers into a vase in less than 3 hours; that's an ~$10 charge, but extremely valuable for me as I was walking around downtown with the flowers for 3 hours and wasn't able to get it into a vase for another 6 hours. I do wish I'd picked up some perfumes - they had the d'Annam, as well as a few other niche brands, that I'd been eyeing for years. So, so happy I got to smell them at long last. In addition to the testers, they give you 2 samples when you make a fragrance purchase and they do up to 3 decants in the store in case you're having a hard time deciding. If you need to wait, I recommend stopping by Intelligentsia - in the same building - before heading back over to view, accept, & pay for your order.

    I'm a big fragrance fan, and I'd been meaning to get down to Field & Florist for a while after…read morelearning about them at the Fumed expo earlier this year. I'm so glad I made the trip. They carry independent and niche brands, which is what I like. I went to smell some Zernell Gillie, but I ended up taking home a Fzotic. I could've spent all day in there, and I only scratched the surface on their impressive lineup. Heidi was super helpful, and was kind enough to smell scents on me and give her feedback! And if that weren't enough, they have a beautiful selection of flowers. I'll be back!

I was disheartened to find out that they were out of the Gaiac 10 and Osmanthus samples, but they informed me that they have the juice to make the full sizes starting Sept 1. So, I ordered the Gaiac 10 and Osmanthus online, and bought several other samples in person. I truly had a great time bantering about fragrance with Ruben, and look forward to coming back after Sept 1 - most likely to get a Gaiac 10 bottle. Nathan described it perfectly when he said it's intimate but long lasting. It's the perfect scent intensity for my sensitive nose. I only wish they made Gaiac hand lotion too!

The scents represent all the different cities around the world. You are able to purchase in September any one of the city exclusives without having to go to that particular city to get it. For 2026 the newest addition is the Beijing exclusive Shui25 it gives the aroma of woody incense & smoky ancient temple vibes. Of course they have their OG best sellers like Another 13 & Santal 33 of which-many others that are also available all year round. I love layering the different fragrances to get my own unique signature scent that works with my body chemistry's ph. I spray Bergomotte 22 & Another 13 together to get a clean girl & fresh your skin but better skin scent that is a total compliment getter! So what are you waiting for go to the Le Labo store nearest you or try their counter at Nordstrom or Neiman Marcus you will find your unique signature scent that will get enormous amount of compliments!!
