Diptyque Georgetown was one of the most disappointing retail experiences I've had. I visited for…read morecandle refills and stood in the store for over 15 minutes without being acknowledged. One sales associate eventually helped me after finishing with another customer, which I appreciated. However, two other associates behind the counter did not acknowledge me at all. What made the situation particularly concerning was that when white customers entered the store, they were immediately greeted and assisted. As a Black customer, the difference in treatment felt noticeable and uncomfortable. At a brand like Diptyque--where customer experience is part of the product--this kind of disparity is unacceptable. I've visited Diptyque locations in multiple countries and have never experienced this level of disregard. This visit felt dismissive and unwelcoming, and it has significantly changed my perception of this location.

Maybe I'm not refined enough to understand the Diptyque hype. My boyfriend loves their candles and…read moresolid colognes so I was expecting to come in and find something I love too, but everything in here smelled... weird. Out of dozens and dozens of scents I maybe found two that I could tolerate?Judging by the price point though, you'd think their candles would smell like heaven but most everything smelled like wet dog or old leaves to me. That said, the customer service was friendly and very attentive. The salesperson was not shy to give us recommendations, tell us about products, or help us out. I also noticed they provide gift wrapping in a variety of beautiful color combinations. Very classy. My boyfriend found what he was looking for and left a satisfied customer, but I left feeling like I had no idea why anyone would pay $70+ for an average sized candle that smelled like the back of a grandma's closet (and wondering if I'm just too primitive to "get" it).

I went in looking for a few low maintenance plants and Cole walked me through several options with real care and attention. I picked up a Hoya Compacta Hindu Rope, a ZZ plant, a Philodendron Lemon Neon, a Bromeliad, a Crassula Jade, an annual, and a six inch Euphorbia Firestick cactus. Every plant looked healthy and well cared for. Since it was a quiet Wednesday morning, I got very personalized attention, but honestly the service here is always excellent even when the store is busy. The staff makes every customer feel valued, no matter how many people are in the shop. The prices are higher than big box stores, but the quality and care of the plants make it worth it. This is easily one of my favorite plant shops in DC and I always leave feeling excited about my new plants. Thank you again to Cole for the great recommendations and wonderful customer service.

This place is great!…read more It doesn't look like much, but it actually has a wealth of different hardware offerings inside. It looks like it caters to contractors and commercial customers, so not much in terms of flash banners or marketing material inside. Much of what they carry comes in bulk quantities, like 100 piece screw kits, etc. However, the staff is extremely friendly and very knowledgeable about their inventory. I came in for some wall anchors and found the perfect set thanks to one of the staff members' help. Would definitely come back if in the area.
