Scent Bar

Last week, my boss wanted to have an event for some clients at a perfume mixing place. I had searched high and low for a place that could do any kind of perfume thing - mixing or matching or whatever. Finally, I found this awesome place by the Beverly Center called Scent Bar. They have every kind of popular and obscure perfume you could imagine, and the people who work there are ridiculously knowledgeable about every single perfume. It reminded me of going wine tasting, where the sommelier can pontificate about every single wine you taste.

Prior to the event, everyone filled out a questionnaire about likes and dislikes, and general personality stuff. The staff at Scent Bar then matched 3 perfumes for each person. During the event, they then spoke at length about each perfume that was chosen for each person. Then we each chose a perfume to purchase; some bought a perfume that had been recommended for them; but not all. I myself chose a perfume by Juliette Has A Gun, named Not A Perfume.
