Paul was really helpful with my shopping experience
Paul was really helpful with my shopping experience. Even though I was in a dilemma, he was patient and proactive, also stepped back giving room for me to contemplate.
When I was ready to make a decision he made me feel good about it. I walked in the shop not knowing if I'll find what I'm after or if I was going to eventually buy it.
At the end I got the perfume I wanted and I left the shop happy. He is a great salesman.

Cara was so helpful today
Cara was so helpful today. I had no idea which perfume to try as l have had the same one for 20 years. She spent time explaining the different products and guiding me thought the perfumes. Ended up spending almost £100 for a bottle but lm sure it will be the right choice and will be back when this bottle is empty 🙏

I visited to purchase a perfume for my partner as gift and I wasn’t sure what I really wanted. Kush at The Perfume Shop was brilliant and she helped me with selecting the right one and also beautifully wrapped it as gift. Kush is a star! Thank you Kush!

Came in ready for the usual perfume however team member Callie went above and beyond helping me try something new. A promotion would help the company more than it would help her, amazing 10/10 coming back.
