OF, I know…the part about fougere sounded downright foolish!

Monbazar, no need for surprise; there’s never a unanimous opinion on anything, ?

Yep. That cleared up everything.

Chlorophyll/Gardenia was an absolute love at first sight… Always in between fresh and flowery scents, rarely altogether. I have soooo many perfumes at home and CG is unique. Funny fact is that many French perfume experts love it as well… Clash was first launched in Paris (at Dover Street Parfums Market) and it’s Chlorophyll/Gardenia that was everyone’s favorite!

littlecooling: Happy to make you laugh!

nathanthomas50, your comment is outside of our policy about being kind to other readers…it does not matter if you think the reader was being kind to an SA or not, so long as they were not being unkind to another reader, and even then, it is better to let me know than to pile on.

So let’s just stop this bit of conversation now, thanks!

This is not the first comment I’ve read about poor service at the NY Scent Bar. Such a shame, as the LA store is very friendly, and there are many other perfume choices in NY to choose from. I’d hate to see them fail due to poor service.

Ha! I’m pretty sure there was no recognition of social media presence. No red carpet treatment expected but I expected the manager to know the market, especially for a new local branch of what many consider a great perfume boutique. I also expect the managers and SAs to be better-trained, more knowledgeable and courteous, particularly because a visit is very likely to be the first. Unfortunately, that wasn’t my experience. I’m sure there will be fans but I’ve taken myself out of that category. No big loss either way.

Wow , you sound like a charmer! I’m not surprised the SA was snooty with you if you treat all SA’s as a “failed something or other ” . How terrible that you were “there with several people who have relevant social media following” & their relevant social media following didn’t grant them red carpet treatment. Instead of scratching your head maybe you should look in a mirror & reassess YOUR attitude.??
