If you're looking for some kind of body care product they probably have it here so if you can't find what you're looking for elsewhere check this place out. It's right on Leidsestraat so while you're looking for it make sure you don't get run over by the tram like I almost did lol. Oh and did I say they also fill prescriptions? They also have a lot of over the counter medicines like ibuprofen, analgesics, bandages, allergy medicines and many other medicinal over the counter products.

A big selection of brands I can't find anywhere else in Holland and personally love, such a Xerjoff, Loewe and Parfums de Marly. They specialize in selling niche brands and topbrands like Chanel, Dior, Hermes and Estee Lauder. This review turned out very long, but they deserve it. I can't believe I didn't know about Marjo before, being that I've lived in Amsterdam for almost ten years now.

Even though it's a big space, the customer service sucks and they won't let you come back for cash returns even after a couple hours if you changed your mind. On the bright side, the selection is quite alright. Stick with the better known stores around the area, though.

The staff here is friendly and helpful. It should be noted that this store is not just perfumes and…read morecosmetics but also various sundries like soaps, shampoos, bandages, powders, etc. I would suffice it to say they carry body care products. Being that they are a chain probably run by a corporation, each store is probably set up demographically. In other words some stores carry certain products while others don't. The store in my neighborhood doesn't carry what I was looking for but another store in a different area does. Since this particular store doesn't carry what I was looking for they also are unable to order it because it's an item they don't regularly carry. Regardless, they have a large selection of most things you might need at good prices.

I had a wonderful experience here. I joined the line on the First Floor, which is women only. There…read morewas an employee who went down the line to see what you were searching for. I was sent upstairs to the men's store, which had a significantly longer wait. I was helped by Sabrina, who was beyond excellent. I had an interest in three items, but one was unavailable. I purchased a wallet and cologne. I got my wallet engraved which took about 35 minutes, but while it was being done, I was able to complete my VAT paperwork on the Fourth Floor. When I returned, my wallet was still being worked on, and decided to look over some small bags. I was able to get my items and the. Returned to the first floor to purchase the bag. My experience on both floors was excellent. It was so refreshing because on my prior trip to Europe I went to Louis Vuitton in London, and I was basically ignored and treated like I was bothering them-- I decided to leave due to this poor treatment. Kudos to Sabrina, and LV Amsterdam for making this such a pleasurable experience and saving me money versus purchasing in the States.

I have been waiting over a year for the opportunity to come back to De Bijenkorf and shop at the…read moreLouis Vuitton here, mainly because the VAT tax refund office located in the mall makes life so much easier. So literally the first thing I did once I dropped my bags off at my hotel was come straight here! Ever since the pandemic started, you can't just randomly browse the store anymore and need to have a client advisor assigned to you. So I had to wait for a bit in line before being able to get in. Additionally, the bag I had been tracking for basically a year wasn't in stock anymore by the time I showed up here, which was kind of a bummer. Guy at the front also told me they couldn't order the bag because I wasn't an EU resident. Anyways, my assigned client advisor, Lucas, told me that they had just acquired a rare Keepall 50B that had been designed by Virgil Abloh the day before. It was a little more expensive than I had been planning for, but hell with the Euro being so cheap, the VAT refund, and the rarity of this bag, I thought for about five minutes before deciding to buy it. Savings between the Euro conversion and VAT refund ended up being $1600, so I would've been dumb NOT to buy it. Overall, I appreciated how smooth my experience was here as it was quick with minimal fuss. The VAT refund floor was also super fast, although they did tell me I still had to go get a stamp at Global Blue at Schiphol. Either way, I would definitely come back here for my LV needs.
