Perfume store

[shannon1219]

I remember when I was a kid there was a store in Magic Kingdom where you went in and picked different scent and they made perfume for you. Anyone else remember this?

I do not, but maybe someone else will. Sounds neat.

Shannon,

I sure do remember it! I went in 1975 and again in 1977. I remember that the store that sold the perfume was in the Liberty Square area where the Christmas and silhouette-art shop are now. I was thrilled when my mom let me create my perfume! I can remember bringing home the bottle and not even using it all so that I could take a sniff from time to time that would wisk me back to WDW!

I can also remember walking through this area in the past couple of years and telling my daughters about it! I know my younger DD would love to do something like that!

Thanks for the memories!

much love,
Mimi

There is some kind of perfume shop in the French pavilion at WS. I know you can get perfume there but I am not sure if you can mix your own or not. I am sure it is very pricey!!

I remember the Perfume Shop. It was a lovely shop with many different fragrances to mix and match. My aunt thought I was insane because I wanted to mix gardenia and coconut in mine. It smelled great to me but then again I was around 8. The best part was the CM writing my name and the "formula" for my perfume in a huge book. She said if I ever wanted more, all I had to do was call and they would make more up for me. I never did call, but I was sad to see the shop go. I really miss those quaint little shops that dotted MK. Now they are all selling the same items. Perhaps Disney will bring them back one day.

I don't remember that. But it would be a neat Disney experience.

We had one of those shops here in the French Quarter. I don't know if it is still open or not.

Sounds llike it was nice. I do wish Disney had more of those kind of shops rather than just the repetitive Mickey shirt shops.
