    Lychee Git
    Tiffany P.

    A fun sniff & sip experience! My favorite scents: Git and Silk Bouquet! Unfortunately, Git became faint on my skin quickly. Silk Bouquet smelled lovely at first but ultimately didn't quite agree with my skin chemistry. To tie the whole sniff & sip concept together, I got the lychee Git drink. It's floral, fruity, and refreshing! The scent staff are knowledgeable and happy to entertain all forms of curiosity. The cafe staff was a different story. This would be a cute spot for a date! You can peruse the gorgeous interior or unwind outdoors on the rooftop. There's even a private restroom, although fair warning: it gets hot and humid inside. Note that street parking can be a challenge.

    As a perfume enthusiast, I've been wanting to visit Elorea for the longest time, specifically for their sniff and sip experience. Ashley was super welcoming and gave great explanations for the notes and longevity of each perfume. I was originally skeptical as I tried their The Elements discovery set back in 2022 and was unimpressed with that line, but I fell in love with Prelude, which I was told released only a week ago. The scent was an intimate, soft, clean floral skin scent that smells like peach blossoms and somehow embodied the name perfectly. I enjoyed how the Korean rose notes were light and not as heavy as regular rose notes in perfume, which tend to give me headaches. I also tried the corresponding Prelude drink (a refreshing iced peach and rose syrup drink) on the house as they were still testing it out on the menu, but I would've easily spent money on it if given the option. A wonderful experience and I will definitely be back again!

    What an interesting place. Elorea is both a perfume shop and a cafe, located on the third floor of an ornate building on 6th St, across from Chapman Plaza. We took the stairs but there should be elevator access around the corner. The store is a large, open, minimalistic space with black and white tones. Definitely very aesthetic. There's also an outdoor patio with a few tables/chairs and some shade with good views of LA. We parked in a lot several blocks away but you can get lucky with street parking too. Staff is friendly and attentive, explaining the store concept, the scents, and the different products. I was really drawn to Heaven and Hazy Blue but ultimately did not end up buying because I should probably get through the ones I have at home. We did end up getting cafe drinks and heading to the patio. I got the matcha (paired with the Heaven scent) and thought it was pretty good. It was the perfect sweetness for me, which probably means it'll be a bit too sweet for many others. Pricing is about what you'd expect around the area. Overall, unique concept and a cool spot to spend an hour or two. I won't be regularly returning for the cafe portion but if you're into fragrances, I'd recommend coming to check it out at least once. It reminds me of To Summer in Shanghai.

    Hazy Blue mocktail

    We ended up going on a Thursday night for the DJ set advertised online! Overall the vibes were great and we picked out a couple of the mocktails from the cafe menu. When you order one, you also get a little card that says which drink it's inspired by. It's definitely an experience because you're instructed to smell the card and then take a sip of the drink to bring everything together. We shopped around for a bit and each got a travel size perfume! The views outside were great and we parked across the street in the garage for H Mart (we went shopping at HMart after) since they validate!

    Rooftop lounge

    One of my fav places I've been to in ktown. Theres not many rooftop cafes and especially none that are also a perfumery. Loved trying all the scents and their cafe menu is custom to the scents they offer. I loved that they had a comfortable lounge space bc i could actually rest up there instead of being in a very crowded cafe with tight seating.

    I absolutely loved this place so much I can't shut up about it! The staff were so friendly and welcoming; they made the whole shopping experience feel really special. Ashley was amazing to work with! The scent range they offer is great, and the perfumes are amazing quality too! They last all day (and longer) and I get so many compliments whenever I wear the one I picked, which was Cloud Daze. The drinks were incredible (the Jang coffee was honestly the best I've ever had) and the outdoor area is such a lovely spot to enjoy them. Such a beautiful shop with a fantastic atmosphere, and I can't wait to come back!

    One of their popular scents

    Since I am a huge collector of perfume and I love drinks, This place was meant for me. (Also, I am a rooftop girl, and this place has a gorgeous one) Slight bummer they do NOT take reservations and they do not even have a phone number. I had to email them about booking for a birthday. They got back to me very fast, though. So bonus points for that. They only take walk ins and said it gets very crowded on the weekends. So come early They have this online giving out a parking tip -Parking Tip. I parked in the H mart parking conveniently located across the street. The parking entrance is on Mariposa. And you can get it validated at H mart if you make a purchase. We had to type in our license plate number Or if you get lucky there is street parking right outside. You have to take the elevator up to the 3rd floor for Elorea This was an incredible experience. It was a sip and smell Ashley, was showing us around the perfume. They have 16 different ones and they are nicely displayed. The whole place was clean and they had someone wiping down the perfume display constantly (The perfume is unisex) Everyone here was extremely friendly. I loved the look of the place. It was upscale yet minimal. The only downside is, I wish they did serve cocktails. It is regular drinks / coffee only. Our group ordered a bunch!!! (My favorite was GIT. It had lychee and aloe in it) and it matched their GIT perfume scent (without it tasting like perfume) -Git -gentle showers -hazy blue -silk bouquet -cloud daze -earth -heaven -Jang -Bae frais At the end, I caved in and bought 3 of their perfume. There was a deal going on and I got one hand cream and two travel size ones for free. Ashley and Cortland helped me out with these. I came one day early, when I purchased the 3 bottles of perfume, Ashley informed me the next day they were having a bottle engraver come in (free when you buy a bottle) she said they could of kept my purchases and then shipped them to me in the mail. But, I was greedy and wanted to take them home vs waiting. I do regret this lol. I can't stress enough how much I loved this concept and how I have never been to anything like this before. This was such a cool get together with friends. (So glad I had a bunch of my favorite people with me) 5 stars for service 5 stars for ambience (it was giving New York vibes) 5 stars for the perfume 5 stars for the whole smell and taste concept Only downside? The parking can be tricky. You can also sign up for emails and order their perfume online. (It's way better getting it in person though)

    8/30/2026 - The Gentle Shower drink from the Forgotten Words Collection and the scent card
    Rad F.

    What a fantastic concept -- fragrances and non-alcoholic drinks! Had no idea what this was. We were sitting in the car next to H Mart on 8/30/2026 wanting coffee, searched nearby, and ended up here. Definitely an experience. Each drink is meant to complement a fragrance. For my Scent & Sip, I tried Gentle Shower. They hand you a card sprayed with the scent, you smell it, then sip the drink. I thoroughly enjoyed it, even if my alcohol-fueled brain really wanted alcohol. Super dope layout: cute historic elevator up to the rooftop, outdoor seating with sun shades, then the fragrance room and drink bar. Word of caution -- no A/C, so if it's hot outside, it's hot in that room. I'll be back for a personal scent appointment (they don't do those on weekends) and the travel-size scents. Buy 3 and you get a nice travel pouch.

    The scents and drinks are divine. Conceptually unique and thoughtfully crafted. Highly recommend trying this cafe out. You get to experience the perfumery and finish with a beverage. Bonus points in my book because all their scents are unisex!

    I was with two friends who were visiting from out of town and wanted something that felt uniquely LA, but not touristy. Well how's a Korean perfumery with a cafe attached to it (and an ice cream pop up the day we showed up lol). We didn't try any of the drinks, but spent a solid hour trying scents, talking to the staff, and eventually buying something hahaha. We opted to get ice cream from the pop up they had outside and sat on the outdoor patio. I wish they had a bigger awning to accommodate the seating they had outside, but it was only partially covered. The price of the perfumes felt reasonable as an independent fragrance brand and the cafe pricing wasn't too bad either (I think their mocktails were slightly cheaper than a bar and the coffee was about the same). Ambiance was great and it was a nice way to kill some time while in ktown.

    I'm not a type of person that wears a scent every day because I haven't found that scent. So I decided to come here and the people working there truly helped me find a scent. I went on Thursday so I can have the tea and sit on the roof as well. Definitely a great experience!

    Kaelyn R.

    Wonderful experience at this location. Fun to find, easily accessible from the Chapman plaza area. Decent amount of seating indoors and outdoors for cafe enjoyers. We loved the iced Jang latte with sea salt cold foam. They give you a card with the scent description of the notes from the matching perfume. Purchased a couple scents and some hand lotions.

    Mirrored decor
    RoseMary F.

    New concept of a fragrance and coffee bar from Korea brand Elorea. Your senses are awaken by the inviting aroma from the coffee bar and the parfum samples. The layout gives a classy vibe, with black and white themed decor, it is elegantly designed. This a high-end, yet comfy and casual spot for a coffee date with friends or your significant other. In the center is a circular counter with fragrances displayed with accompanying Note cards describing the contents. Ashley was our Customer rep, she was professional and patiently explained the products, fragrances and lotions. All are paired with an coffee, tea or matcha-type drink (iced or hot) are available. It is not easy to describe the full essence and experience. I feel I ought to give a little more details. In our group of five, we ordered the following from the THE RESONANCE COLLECTION (in alpha order): - Bae Frais (Pear Cider) - hot tea, paired with a Light Fruity scent parfum. - Cloud Daze - Rice Creamsicle drink, paired with a Warm & Fuzzy feels parfum. - Gentle Shower - iced green tea paired with - a clean coastal scented parfum. - Silk Bouquet - iced drink paired with a Woody scent parfum. - Hazy Blue - iced drink - paired with a fresh Musk scent parfum. From the TIMELESS LEGACY COLLECTION (in alpha order): - Earth - hot coffee drink, paired with a Leathery, earthy tone parfum. - Git - iced with lychee, paired with a Woody, Pine scent parfum. Jang - iced Savory flavor paired with a Warm & Husky parfum. I was fascinated with the overall concept. The scents are made for both men and women. They are light and fresh to smell, not too flowery or overpowering. I am kicking myself now, for not diving in and buying a bottle of parfum. I guess that means I must return and take advantage of their monthly specials. Online ordering is available on their website. Seating areas: There are a few indoor seats, and an outdoor patio on the rooftop balcony with a view of Koreatown. Note 1: Entrance on 6th Street, take the elevator to the 3rd floor. Note 2: Parking in nearby lots or metered on 6th Street, two-hour residential parking on side streets. Sincerely, Rosemary

Maneki Neko also operates a sister concept store called CATCH Little Tokyo located on the third floor of Japanese Village Plaza. [Parking]: As long as there are no special events in Little Tokyo, the Aiso Parking Garage (101 Judge John Aiso St) is your best bet. [Selection]: The shop has transitioned from primarily selling traditional decor / ceramics / cosmetics (which the shop still carries but in a smaller section) to focusing mainly on plushies and blind boxes featuring IPs like Sanrio, Pokémon, and other Japanese anime. Even though an officially licensed Sanrio store is located next door, Maneki Neko still has an excellent selection of Sanrio items that you can't find at the next-door licensed Sanrio store. [Conclusion]: This is one of those shops where I can probably find a Sanrio plush that I am willing to buy as a gift. It is a perfect example of a thriving shop that has learned to adapt by keeping up with changing consumer tastes.

I don't think anything can ever beat the old Arcadia location when I got super cheap and nice cosmetics for around $1 (think Missha and Majolica Marjorca, but this only happened when things reopened after the lock down), but you can still find some good deals here. Similar to the Arcadia location, there's a mix of legitimate items here and a couple questionable, potentially bootleg items, so make sure you check and read the labels and compare prices online and the such. I like how this location plays into the culture and touristy-ness of the Little Tokyo with the daruma statue photo op in front and the pressed penny machine. I'm a sucker for pressed pennies, so this was nice. I've gotten super cheap sword props for cosplay, cute super cheap random character plushies and merchandise (think generic cats), and in an ocean of blind box slop shops in LT, I prefer Maneki Neko in comparison.
