Torn between a three or four star rating for my experience. This is more of a 3.5 star review…read more It was one of my best friend's first time in NYC and I thought how fun will it be to create our own fragrances? It's not like we have this in our hometown. Making a reservation is available but I figured we'd be okay as walk-ins especially on a weekday. Upon walking in, we were greeted and felt welcome. Our 'scent specialist' led us to the wall where there's about 11 base scents to smell and pick one that suits our liking. My friend EASILY was able to choose quite a few that she loved. I, however, struggled. Nothing stood out to me. It was either way too light where I can't smell it or way too strong and masculine. I love light florals, beachy, clean/fresh and none of the base scents were any of that. In the end, I settled for "Rae" (smells mainly citrus?) as my base while my friend choose "Reed." After choosing our base, our scent specialist started adding different drops of other scents they believe you'll like on top of your base scent. They combined plenty of different options (like over five different combos). I ended up choosing a mix of hydrangea, geranium and lilac. Sounds good to me...hey, remember I like fresh, light florals. Sadly, even with all the scents of florals mixed in my finished bottle, I ended up only mainly smelling the citrus from my base scent. This was a cool experience but left disappointed. You're essentially mixing pre-designed perfumes/scents together to make "your" blend, you're not creating a perfume totally from scratch. I've read some reviews about weak staying power. I also have a friend who made her own bottle before and also said the same thing. However, I can smell my freakin "Rae" headache inducing scent HOURSSSS later. Go figure, right? The total was about $93 and that's tax included for a 1.7 fl oz. bottle.

The staff greeted us when we walked in, and let us know how to smell the perfumes (they have the scents in little glasses). Staff asked me what I was looking for scent-wise, and showed me what I asked for. (I do love florals.) I was also shown the second floor which is their limited fragrances, so unavailable after the season. And when I couldn't decide between two scents, they helped me decide by determining if it was for special occasion or daily use. They also can custom make scents, which is pretty neat. I mentioned wanting jasmine, and they also showed me a pure jasmine scented oil. I just chose one of the premade perfumes. Maybe next time! They also engrave your name on the box, either English or Arabic, as a complimentary service. I will definitely be back once I need a new bottle! Outstanding customer service, very knowledgeable, and incredibly clean store.

Even though I am a fan of the brand, I didn't know there was a NYC boutique. I was in the area with…read moremy mother and we saw the store sign and decided to enter. The person inside (AJ) was so nice and professional and engaged in a way that made my mother fall in love with the brand even more. He took the time to let us more about the scents of our interests and ways we could layer. Not only did he go over the scents and gave astute comments, he had this uncanny ability to predict which scents we would like and dislike. I absolutely believe I found my mother's scent twin. The boutique had the popular entries like the Delina (original and exclusif) and newcomers like the Valaya exclusif. Other than going to a department store that sells some entries, going to a boutique like this one is great so you don't have to blind buy a scent that you are paying quite a bit on. Because I'm a dutiful daughter, I got my mom the Delina and we got samples to explore more. I would go back in the future.

It was interesting to see some of the vintage wares like trinket dishes, etc. Prices vary, and some vintage things are expensive.

I will be coming here to do some of my Christmas shopping. Looking forward to seeing their continued curation of vintage homewares.

One of their brands is called Soy Logic for which they've developed some terrific home fragrances in the form of candles, diffusers, and room sprays. There's a fragrance for everyone and I appreciate their nuanced scents while being relatively affordable compared to many upscale hotel chain fragrance products. Some personal favorites are their fig, currant, seaside-influenced (think sea salt, kelp), and citrusy scents (individually, not all together). Some of their fragrances come in the form of lotions and body products too. I didn't realize they also carried jewelry and stationery until I got to the store, and didn't really look at these so can't really comment, though I can see how they are supplementary home and personal beautification products.

I went in with some of families and we spent in there almost 2 hours, we were pleased with the aroma, the products and the service we received from Terry. It was exceptional! I'm happy with All their products I purchase , they are 100% high quality Love so much the Scrubs-Himalayan Salt & Sage / The Valencia Orange left my skin like a baby supper impressive. Love so much the Linen & Sheet Spray!! gosh! its so relaxing I fall asleep so easy, like aroma therapy makes my room feel like I was in my own spa.

Not regrets of each one of my purchase. I'm very happy with it and pleased, I will definitely come back soon to get more stuff and fragrance. I definitely recommend this place and their brands, good for everything including your office to work relaxed, room to sleep and chill relaxed. So happy to find this store! :)
