The people who work here don't seem to want any paying customers. Don't even bother walking in here, plenty of other shops.

The best stop on your shopping tour! I had the pleasure of stopping by this unique store and…read morepurchased a wonderful men's cologne for myself. This place has hundreds of fragrances and hard to find men's and women's sundries. The proprietor is a quiet and nice man who was able to pinpoint the right product for me based on my request for something subtle. There have been a few unjustified bad reviews that I've read, and I have to blame the reviewers who are more likely the problem. Simply put, if you're going to shop retail, then purchase from retail. Don't walk in and try a bunch of fragrances then buy online to save a few bucks. Do the right thing by merchants that have rent to pay and operational expenses. Supporting local May cost a bit more but it worth it. Thank you sir for a great experience, I'll be back.

I had a bad experience here. I came looking for a particular perfume (Jicky by Guerlain), asked the…read moregentleman there and he showed me a bottle. I asked whether I could test it and was told no. I have only smelled old bottles of Jicky -- I don't know what the current version smells like. Without trying, I couldn't decide whether to buy it, so I gave the perfume back and told him I'd think about it. They were selling it for $145, same as retail. I then had a walk around browsing the store. Once or twice I saw something I hadn't heard of and I took out my phone to Google it. I'm a bit socially awkward and I sometimes prefer to read about things online instead of bothering someone with questions. I went to the door and told the gentleman at the counter thanks and good bye. He said to me, "so I'm curious, were you just shop malling me or what?" I'd never heard that term and asked what he meant. He said, "You look at our boxes and then you look the prices up on your phone -- that's shop malling." I said that I was really mostly interested in the Guerlain perfume, and if they'd had a deal on it I would have taken it. But they didn't and plus, I'm not going to shell out $145 for a perfume if I can't try it. He said to me sarcastically, "Support local businesses, huh." I replied, "Well, I still might be back, you have some good stuff." And he said, "I won't hold my breath." It's not nice to be snippy with a customer who's just coming in to have a browse. And the "shop malling" accusation came out of nowhere too (just because I was walking around and looking at my phone?). The funny thing is, I would gladly pay retail price for something or even a bit more to support a local business run by nice folks -- keyword here is nice.

I went in to the Newbury street Le Labo store this afternoon (Aug 28th, 2026) for the first time. I…read morehad only heard of the Santal 33 and Vanille 44 from the internet and was curious to try them. I was greeted by one of the employees, I can't speak for all the employees because I only talked to this guy (didn't get his name but he was tall-ish, and probably white and American if I had to guess) and he was really great, friendly, and knowledgeable on all the perfumes and had a good knowledge base about what perfumes are on the market and could recommend what I may like based on other scents I like. I felt like the other two employees behind the counter were less interactive. There were two other groups of people that came in and this one guy was managing to help all of us. I'm a woman in her early 20s. Here's my favorites from today: -LABDANUM 18 -THÉ MATCHA 26 -THÉ NOIR 29 -NEROLI 36 -LYS 41 -JASMIN 17 From the city collection: CORIANDRE 39- Mexico city VANILLE 44- Paris CITRON 28- Seoul

Wasn't too interested in the other offerings when arriving. The gentlemen on duty greeted us instantly and was pleasant. The other staff did help with telling us about the scents already being on the paper behind the bottles, while we were test spraying onto the test strips. The store today overall was clean, the decor style was themed and u thought cohesive minimalist retro basement lab? Haha Will have to check out their other locations too but on a day we have more time.

This is solely for the customer service experience…read more On 12/12/21 I walked into this store and was greeted at the door by two sales associates. I usually just walk around the store and half the time I know what I want to buy. However, this time around I wanted to try a new foundation. I approached one of the sales associates and asked to have my foundation match. Hailey (Haley) was more than happy to assist me. She match me without even using the color matching machine (since the foundation I wanted was more like a light coverage). She gave me a sample to try at home and answer all my questions. She gave me her full attention and is very knowledgeable about all the products. She never once try to push me to buy an item or discourage me to try a certain product. She was friendly from the beginning to the end of our conversation. Immediately after she was helping another client. I was blown away by how great her service is and will continue to come here.

I rarely write reviews, but I feel like I have to this time. The customer service here is terrible…read more The staff are very rude and unfriendly. I hate going to this store, but it's the closest option to my house. Every time I visit, I make a purchase, yet I always feel unwelcome. The employees often stand around talking to each other, and I feel awkward interrupting them to ask a question. When they do respond, they answer quickly and walk away. Today, I tried to mention my experience to the cashier while paying, but she completely ignored me as if she didn't hear me. My neighbor told me the same thing

These are really good quality natural/raw fragrances that are beginner and sensitive friendly. As a person sensitive to smells and who doesn't really wear fragrances for fear of them being too powerful or causing migraine, I was skeptical of trying perfume. I was recommended to try BYREDO by my friends roommate who is into perfume because this business uses natural/raw ingredients to formulate their fragrances. I walked in and it was empty so I got some great service and tried almost all of the perfumes, and I realized what I liked/didn't like. It's hard to commit to just one fragrance so I opted to get a smaller perfume. Well the salesperson recommended I actually get 3 small ones for only $40 more. This is a great deal for a beginner like me who wants quality products and to explore what I like. And on top of that I was given the option of 3 free samples. And then they threw in a couple samples of body wash as well. I feel so pampered and am excited to wear my new perfumes. They didn't overwhelm me and since they are natural they won't trigger a migraine.

I'm so happy this location finally opened, I had been going to Westwood and it isn't the most…read moreconvenient when you live around here. Everyone here is so nice whether I am just picking something up that I ordered online (as I did this morning), or answering my stupid cosmetic questions (that was me a few weeks ago). Whoever is responsible for the hiring of the opening crew did a great job!! If you are afraid you will go in, roam every inch of the store and leave with 10 bags then just order online and pick up what you need!

I have mixed feelings about this Ulta location after visiting on this day…read more I was already shopping around at Arsenal Yards & wanted to grab some makeup goodiesi put in an online pickup order via Ulta app while I was shopping around. My order was supposed to be ready in about an hour & the store inside wasn't busy, so I went in to ask if I could help pick out the items I purchased for online pickup and bring it to the counter to scan out to quicken the process. The store associate told me that this works, so I went to pick out all the stuff that I had placed an order for and brought it to the counter. Then she proceeds to try to charge me for all the items I gave her to scan instead of just going by the online order. I guess she didn't know how to do online pickup orders and got confused but she wanted to refund my online order and have me repurchase everything. I didn't want to do this since I didn't really see the point in doing so. Instead, I just waited until my order was fulfilled later in the day & picked up my order an hour after all of this. I feel like an online pickup order shouldn't have been this difficult & if my order couldn't be fulfilled in time or earlier, it would've been okay to have said so.
