I had an outstanding experience at The Perfume Shop in the Oracle Reading on 21st January 2026. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt welcoming, but what truly made my visit exceptional was the customer service from Ramona.
She was incredibly friendly, patient, and genuinely knowledgeable about the fragrances I was interested in. Instead of rushing me or pushing products, she took the time to understand what I liked, offered thoughtful recommendations, and explained each option clearly. Her professionalism and warm personality made the whole experience enjoyable and effortless.
It’s rare to come across someone who combines expertise with such genuine care for customers, and Ramona absolutely stands out. Thanks to her, I left with the perfect fragrance and a smile on my face.
Highly recommend this store — and if you’re visiting, look out for Ramona. She’s fantastic.

Bad experience with staff
Hi,
We went to a perfume shop today around 5 o’clock. There was a lady working there with a nose piercing and her hair in a bun. She was using her phone the entire time.
We asked her twice for help, and she replied very rudely, saying, “I am busy.” After about three minutes, she spoke to us again in a rude manner and said, “We don’t have this product,” and then started speaking in her own language.
Seriously, she ruined my day.
