Just popped into the new boutique in Lakeside, great selection of niche fragrances. I was particularly impressed with a staff member called Rayan, he has a vast knowledge of fragrances & i could tell he is passionate about what he does. He really is a massive credit to the company. Was so refreshing to talk to a sales assistant who knows what they are talking about. 5/5 experience

Corinne’s brilliant customer service!


Absolutely brilliant! We’re long term customers for at least over 7 years and today’s experience did not disappoint. Corinne aided us with our purchase; we felt cared for and truly listened to. She was patient and overall her service was perfect and professional.
Would definitely recommend as the customer service was on another level and hope to be served by Corinne again!!!
