Last Wednesday was truly a scent-sational breeze. My nose knows no wrong. I could simply smell…read moredifferent types of floral depths even if I'm standing near the front of the entrance that was called Frankie & Myrrh. I once had made a gift exchange with my mini black glass canister for a "Spray the B!#ch Away" during the white elephant gift event. That was few years back. I used that spray to create a mist before bedtime, and that was a pleasant scent. Too bad my whole family didn't like that scent, not even my ex-wife. Thus, I'm the only one who can have it in my room in case I get annoyed. Back to the latest. Sweet strong scent from diffusers and sachets, sweet customer service, and a sweet atmosphere that brings positive feelings in one whiff. Though each of the purchases were still expensive, the one for $15 was the French lavender essential oil. Not as strong as my Bulgarian version in a tiny cobalt glass bottle, the French lavender will be good enough to help me relax. I have yet to use it after I use up my Bulgarian version. Anytime of the day, I can only smell with or without opening its tiny bottle. *Sniff*, *sniff*! Aaah! Aromatherapy at its very best!

I'm really particular when it comes to scents, and I detest most colognes. So when various visits to Macy's, Nordstrom's and other department stores failed to net me anything other than the usual stable of main-brand colognes, I had to dig deeper. Enter The Perfume Company. This little kiosk on the second floor of Westfield has a deep selection of brands of perfume and cologne. They had the exact Kenzo scent I was searching for, at a price about $10 cheaper than the last time I bought it (at Duty Free, no less). The dudes running the joint were friendly enough and they have a return-customer discount deal - 10% off the same scent. All you need to do is bring the receipt back in (like that's going to happen). Despite this kiosk being in the middle of mall-town chaos, it has the deepest scent selection of anything in the area. And the prices are fair.

There are events in SF where everyone knows it involves some type of costume. An annual event which involves performative running of over seven miles and resembles a mix of a flash mob, rave, fraternity and sorority Greek gathering and those who like to show their fun spirit in San Francisco at the Bay to Breakers run. Some years Karl the Fog accompanies the runners on a Sunday morning and some years the sun shines bright through the entire path. There is a place where you can gear up and show your San Francisco free spirit. Located on Clement street it's called Foggy Notion. On a San Francisco Karl The Fog stroll I landed inside Foggy Notion. Inside you will find candles and natural skincare products along with gifts with some San Francisco representation. The products are made by local artisans . Get a towel of Sutro Tower and salty waters of the Pacific Ocean on the both sides of the Bay Bridge. After the Bay to Breakers run come and get some soap. They also have San Francisco scented candles which doesn't stink like parts of Fisherman's Wharf in SF.

Jessica is super knowledgeable and helpful - encouraging you to experiment and make your own choices, while also coaching you through your personal blend. The first part is instructional and gives you the opportunity to smell 15 different oils to consider in your blend. You then get some time to think through your concoction and when you are ready, she helps you mix your own personal bottle of the scent, which you take home with you at the end of the session. She also allows you to record your formula in her database should you want to reorder when you run out. It was educational and fun and I left with a unique scent all my own.

I am absolutely in love with the custom perfume I made and get loads of compliments on it. Jessica is extremely talented, knowledgeable, charming and organized. She documents and keeps your custom "recipe" on file so that you can re-order your perfume from her when you run out - or to give as gifts, etc. I would do one of her workshops again in a heartbeat. I would recommend her workshops to everyone- men, women, even older children. Great for bridal showers, birthdays, Valentine's Day, or any time. I promise you will learn a lot and enjoy the end result as much as the process of building your custom scent!

Each location has a curated hard-to-find collection, but this location is larger than the other branch and it's surrounded by other boutiques. You can get sample vials for $6-10, which you can often get back if you buy the full bottle. We loved Circue de Soleil, which smelled of buttery popcorn, cotton candy, and caramel apples, and Mango Sticky Rice, which smelled of mango, rice, and sticky. We didn't like the Katie Holmes, which smelled of bad acting, smirks and flop sweat. Is there a better experience testing fragrances? Nobody nose!

Pro tip: smell scents you like outside in the fresh air. The inside air smells crazy bc of all the sprays. 1.5ml samples are available at great prices. I've been here a couple times now to smell on my own and get recommendations from the staff. Both times, I was periodically approached by someone asking if I needed any help. I told them the notes I was looking for, and they brought out a mini line up of 6-8 fragrances for me to smell on my own. I appreciate this approach as you feel like you can smell on your own time. On my second visit, a staff member approached me and asked if i needed any assistance. I was ready to purchase some samples and asked her to look for 3. I waited in the corner of the store for several minutes, seeing her look in the sample stock for a bit, but then she came back into the main room without approaching me. I let her do her thing for a few more minutes but it appeared that she was helping other customers by then, so I asked if she had found everything. Only then did she tell me they were out of one of my 3 samples. I eventually replaced the 3rd sample with something else, but I didn't like the customer service during this visit.
