I haven't tried coffee yet because I've gone later in the day but I did get a mango smoothie that was heavenly! (Also good to use to make mimosas) I also have gotten great gifts for two of my sisters. And a sweet treat for myself! It's a great store! It's worth a visit!

This is such a cool local business in Greensboro. I stopped by yesterday to pick up some goodies…read morefor a gift basket and this store did not fail me. There are so many unique local things you can purchase here. They had candy and coasters and T-shirts, and all sorts of goodies! It was very nostalgic and reminds me of Mast general store. You can also get a customized coffee drink while you're there! Definitely worth a visit. They even have a cute little patio area outside where you can sit and drink your drink.

I visited Bright Black with a group of friends on their drop in day on Saturday. It was such an…read moreinviting and welcoming experience. I like fragrance or more importantly, I know what I don't like so to be immersed in an experience with fragrance experts and not feel overwhelmed was a great time. We worked with Sacha who was very honest about our blends, gave good feedback, and was a good source of encouragement. You have the ability to create 3 different versions of your scent and choose what most feels like you. You can also save your scent for future use. I liked that added benefit. I am always curious as to how brands like these manage to keep their momentum as it sometimes feels like something you do once but I would definitely come again to create other products. They offer candles too as well as you can purchase premade scents. I feel like the price was very reasonable compared to other similar experiences. Definitely a must visit for a date night, girls night out, or just a relaxing end to a stressful day!

I learned about Bright Black on TikTok while looking for perfume making classes in the area. They…read moreare a black owned small business! Bright black offers the perfume Workshop every Saturday from 11-5 - walk in only. We got there a little before noon, and we were able to get seated right away. The staff was super friendly and explained each part of the process. There were tons of scents to choose from to create your own perfume oil. It was $35 per person which I didn't think was bad at all! They also sell car air fresheners, lotions, and candles. Most of the fragrances of the candles have a story or meaning behind them which I thought was pretty neat! Apparently next month, they will be offering larger, alcohol based perfume workshop options. When you're done, you have the option to log your scent so that you can have it made again or even have it made into candles which is cool! I really enjoyed my visit to Bright Black and would definitely recommend visiting if in the Raleigh/Durham areas

I love everything candle, soap, defuser related and the fact that this is a small business with the most unique scents makes it even better! This cute little shop carries candles, car defusers, hand soap, room spray, and more! The scents Meg has crafted are so unique I would have never thought they would ever even exist, but here we are with sweet tea, antique store, and rosemary focaccia All of which smell exactly like its namesake and its addicting! I bought a few items for myself and for Christmas gifts. If you're on Trade in Winston make sure you pop into this little gem of a store. I can't wait for the spring scents to make their debut!
