Fantastic Experience with Claire

Claire at The Perfume Shop in Workington is an absolute star! She was incredibly patient, friendly, and knowledgeable, taking the time to help me find the perfect perfume without ever rushing me. Her warmth and professionalism made the whole experience a joy. Thanks to Claire, I left feeling completely delighted and I’ll definitely be returning. Highly recommend her and the store!

Exceptional Customer Service

We did some Christmas shopping in the Workington store this morning. We were warmly welcomed by Claire who was very polite and immediately asked how she could help us. We had a list of preferred fragrances for our two daughters and their husbands and Claire took the time to inform us of the available range of sizes and prices as well as any current gift sets. Claire also offered us the opportunity to sample some of the fragrances. We chose three of the fragrances relatively quickly but the fourth and final fragrance was not available in the shop in the size we were hoping to buy. This was no issue for Clare who suggested that she could order it for us for home delivery within 3 to 5 days and we let her know that we would very much appreciate that. Having scanned in my wife’s loyalty card Claire completed the sale by letting my wife know the balance of points on her card and by gifting us some free toilet bags and a hold-all.
The whole experience was very positive, professional and friendly. We very much enjoyed our visit and Claire’s level of customer service and friendly, helpful approach were exceptional. She was a great ambassador for The Perfume Shop.

I had been gifted a refill bottle for my perfume but was unsure if my bottles were reusable (previous assistant when I went in to ask said to bring them in and they would check)

Sue manager of Workington store Cumbria

Assisted was very very helpful . Had a lovely chat throughout my shopping., I felt I had made a friend. I love my gifts wrapped with the personal ribbon.
Before leaving the shop, Sue introduced herself as the manager of workington store and thanked me amensly for my costume. Wouldn't go anywhere else to buy my Christmas and birthday gifts.
Some times I do order on line .. but much prefer going to see Sue.
