Staff and service was really good and welcoming. Especially Caliie at St James, perfume store, Edinburgh. She made it easy for me to select the perfume as I didnt have enough time to shop and research because of my travel plans but she was very sweet and warm. I bought 2 pradas(male and female). She really has a good taste.

5 star service

Stopped in at the Perfume Shop out browsing in Edinburgh waiting for the Playhouse. Initially was looking for the new Ghost Linar Goddess to try and we met the lovely Callie. She took us through the scents, helped with the purchase and even threw in a gorgeous wee freebie bag. Absolutely 5 star service and would highly recommend!
