It's such a lovely shop tucked away on Dearborn; the Monadnock Building's history is fascinating too that's all captured in its Wikipedia page. Field & Florist has niche perfumes and divine, custom floral arrangement services, but I came specifically for the latter; I highly, highly recommend them if you're looking for unique fragrances and/or florals. You can also purchase your own stems to make your own bouquet, but if you have an inspiration (yet are short on time), I highly recommend using their serviecs to curate a beautiful bouquet. You can also work with them to pair a fragrance with your florals - I cannot wait to be back in Chicago to stop by them again! If you enter from the street, stay focused on the stairs; if you need wheelchair/mobility impaired access, I'd go through the side building access (by Intelligentsia). All doors are heavy either way, so be careful there too. For floral arrangements: Let them know what your inspiration is and your budget, and they'll work with you. For me, it was Sriracha tofu and I was looking for something under $100; and the florist definitely came through. I loved how quickly they picked up on the white and red themes, and incorporated the The entire experience was extremely low pressure and its a very clam environment. They make sure to ask if you need a wet bag if you won't be able to get your flowers into a vase in less than 3 hours; that's an ~$10 charge, but extremely valuable for me as I was walking around downtown with the flowers for 3 hours and wasn't able to get it into a vase for another 6 hours. I do wish I'd picked up some perfumes - they had the d'Annam, as well as a few other niche brands, that I'd been eyeing for years. So, so happy I got to smell them at long last. In addition to the testers, they give you 2 samples when you make a fragrance purchase and they do up to 3 decants in the store in case you're having a hard time deciding. If you need to wait, I recommend stopping by Intelligentsia - in the same building - before heading back over to view, accept, & pay for your order.

We ended up getting a little lost trying to find the store, but we called and they gave us much better directions than our GPS! Ruben greeted us when we arrived, and he was so kind and helpful. The store is larger than the downtown location and has a really cool industrial, rustic feel. What I appreciated most was that I never felt pressured or rushed. Ruben took his time, answered all of my questions, and made the entire experience enjoyable. Mady made my bottle of Vanille 44, and she was awesome! She even let me record her making my bottle so I could capture the experience for content, which I really appreciated. I absolutely LOVE my Vanille 44 and have since placed over-the-phone orders of Gaiac 10 (also made by Mady), and Another 13. Jill made my bottle of Another 13, and she was wonderful as well. Every interaction I've had with this store has been such a positive experience. Le Labo makes elite fragrances, but the service is just as exceptional. When you're purchasing fragrances at this price point, the experience matters, and this location absolutely delivers. I'll definitely be back!

I was disheartened to find out that they were out of the Gaiac 10 and Osmanthus samples, but they informed me that they have the juice to make the full sizes starting Sept 1. So, I ordered the Gaiac 10 and Osmanthus online, and bought several other samples in person. I truly had a great time bantering about fragrance with Ruben, and look forward to coming back after Sept 1 - most likely to get a Gaiac 10 bottle. Nathan described it perfectly when he said it's intimate but long lasting. It's the perfect scent intensity for my sensitive nose. I only wish they made Gaiac hand lotion too!

I've bought a lot of fragrances from them through the years. I have noticed lately they are getting more expensive and making me question is it worth the drive anymore. I get that they are a brick and mortar store but when I can find designer fragrances online for $40 or $50 dollars less it's makes it not worth the time and effort anymore. It's to bad because I'd rather give my money to a local business than a huge online discounter. But in the end it's all about the Benjamin's.
