I had a great experience at the store thanks to Callie. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful throughout my visit, taking the time to understand exactly what I was looking for and making thoughtful recommendations without being pushy.
The packaging was beautiful and thoughtfully done, and being able to add a personalized message on the ribbon was such a nice touch and made the gift feel even more unique.

Anika is a star employee! ⭐️⭐️
I had the best experience at the perfume shop today! My limited edition daisy perfume recently ran out so I went in with a few ideas of what I might like but needed some help finding the perfect scent.
Anika was the sweetest and most helpful employee ever. She gave me great recommendations and spent a lot of time finding perfumes I would like. I especially appreciated her honesty when I asked her her opinions on specific perfumes I was smelling - I really valued her thoughts on what smelt best!
Every company should have an employee like Anika - she is the best!!! It was like shopping with a friend ☺️ I ended up buying one of the first perfumes she showed me, after a long while of searching, so proves that I should’ve gone with her suggestion from the start!

First time shopper to the perfume shop.
First time shopper to the perfume shop.
Having trailed around a few department stores and not finding a great selection or access to testers due to being locked up, and a lack of staff to assist , i then popped in to the shop in the St James Quarter.
Welcomed by the friendly assistant, Kush, she was a great help in helping me to choose an aftershave for my husband.
She was extremely patient when I was undecided and I wasn't felt rushed into making a selection. The choice and prices were amazing. I will be making this my first stop in future.

Cara - excellent customer service and and ambassador for the organisation
I was looked after by Cara in the Edinburgh store on Saturday 14th March. Cara was knowledgeable and patient and had excellent customer service. Promoted the discount scheme so I receive a 10% on my favourite Alien refill each time I visit which was a bonus! Cara exceeded my expectations and I would definitely return to The Perfume Shop as a result. A great ambassador for the organisation - well done Cara!
