    My mom and I had an incredible experience creating our own custom fragrances at Olfactory NYC. The entire process was seamless -- engaging, educational, and so much fun. The team guided us through each step with expertise and care, helping us identify the notes and blends that truly reflected our personalities. What I loved most was how personal the experience felt. Every detail, from the scent selection to the final packaging, was thoughtfully done. We left not only with our own signature fragrances but also with a beautiful shared memory. I highly recommend Olfactory NYC to anyone looking for a creative, elevated, and truly one-of-a-kind experience.

For the past several years, visiting the Roswell and Atlanta locations was an absolute highlight--we'd stop by and always leave with 2-3 new bottles after hours of delightful discovery. The core joy of this shop was the freedom to explore and stumble upon a new favorite scent. Unfortunately, that experience is dead. Indiehouse has transitioned to a membership-based experience that hides a significant portion of its inventory behind a paywall. At the lowest tier, you have to pay a $50 fee just to be allowed to sniff the fragrances--fragrances that were previously accessible to any visitor. This business model feels entirely elitist and completely betrays the spirit of niche fragrance exploration. It turns a fun, welcoming shop into a walled-off, gatekeeping experience. We used to be reliable repeat customers who spent hundreds of dollars here annually. Now, we feel priced out of even browsing. If you're looking for a refined experience of exploration and discovery, you won't find it here anymore unless you pay the high price of admission. We love to support local but now it seems we will be strictly taking our business online for future fragrances buys.

We thought the options were basic, although different varieties, and weren't completely satisfied with the food we ordered. The service was nothing to rave about either but at least the restrooms and tables were clean. We also loved being able to walk on the trails in the surrounding neighborhood. We ordered a margarita pizza from Varuni, which was the most underwhelming if not disappointing pizza in our opinion. The crust was too soggy and the sauce was sour. It tasted like they just used a can of uncooked crushed tomatoes. We also ordered the fried turkey platter from Soul since we've never had southern comfort food. The turkey was seasoned well but was a bit dry and over fried, again just our opinion. Nonetheless, it was a better value and had more flavor than the pizza because the candied yams were delicious! Finally, we got after-meal drinks from Little Tart and the coffee was good. Overall, it wasn't the worst experience but we probably wouldn't eat at this food hall again. I would still suggest it to other first-timers since the location was really nice and it's good for groups because of the different options. The surrounding area is also a nice change from downtown, which is where we stayed.

Located at the Krog Street Market, the interior aesthetic reads industrial storehouse meets white-washed farm living room. Exposed high ceilings painted black with spotlights, hanging 60s style vintage lamps, a lacquered wooden canoe suspended mid-air and a large lightbulb arrow sign add a quirky vibe. Products include kitchen gadgets and serving ware (hand towels, plates, bowls, measuring cups, cocktail accessories, glasses, handsoap), books (travel, art, history, food/recipe, coffee table), Georgia-related souvenirs and packaged food gifts (candies and chocolate, cookies, puzzles, etc), gifting paper (like cards, gift wrap, gift bags), candles and home decor items (wall art, prints, bookends), and some seasonal holiday items that fall into above categories. They carry Lucia candles which are one of my favorite candle makers in terms of elegant home fragrances, though I only saw their seasonal fir/evergreen scent which unfortunately wasn't a love. Price range falls into the higher end so not an everyday shopping kinda place, though I'd recommend for an occasional treat or place to buy a nice souvenir. Staff seemed helpful and able to provide recommendations. Parking is available street side in the neighborhood.

I would never just "pop in" to go to this Sephora but if I'm making a trip to PCM for some other reason, I will kill a few birds with that stone. Which is what happened on this most recent visit... I'd purchased a concealer online that was way too light and needed to return/exchange for another color that would be best to swatch/test in-store. Although I realized in advance that I was outside of the 30-day window by about a week, I timed my trip around visiting family, knowing that we were going to hit up PCM. Thankfully the Charlotte Tilbury rep was hovering in the area and she helped me to identify the best shade for what I was looking for. When I went to the checkout, the sales person pointed out the 30-day policy -- btw, turns out that it is 30 days from the date the order was purchased, doesn't matter that it took an additional week to actually arrive at my house via shipping to even know that the color was wrong. I could have sworn I saw on their website that items beyond 30 days could be exchanged, up to 60 days, but that's not what the staff member at the register said. However, without me having to escalate, he automatically went to get the manager. She did not want to let me do an exchange but I was both polite and persistent and she finally caved, allowing me to do this as a "one-time" courtesy. This Sephora is not as expansive as other ones and didn't have the limited edition Sol de Janeiro my niece wanted, for example. However, if you need to stock up on your favorite items or you're already in this shopping center, this Sephora is a good option.

This area is extremely busy and congested. It's hard to find parking on street but there's a garage for once it fills up. The inside of this Sephora was packed. There was so many people shopping around. I was looking for Loccitane and unfortunately this location didn't carry this brand but their other stores do. The perfume that my friend wanted was also out of stock so she was unable to exchange her gift. I can say that the staff was very helpful with trying to help me find what I needed so thank you for that.
