Super helpful and patient, pleasant experience.
The girls on shift today were approachable, had genuine interest and were super helpful. Cara and another girl who was with her (didn’t get her name but served me the first time I came in with my sister earlier in the day) were very thorough and direct but also patient and helpful. No complaints other than I didn’t receive the email receipt for the first fragrance I bought earlier on in the day even though they scanned my VIP Rewards card?
