Officina Profumo-Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella Florence Via della Scala

Veronika Bogdányi

Such a beautiful place!!! I had to wait in line for about 10-15 minutes but once you're in the store, you can spend as much time as you want! I love looking around, so many beautiful spots, the decorations are so pretty!! And they also had an exhibition in the back at the time I went, that was super cool as well! The staff is also very helpful and they all speak very good English! Highly highly recommend to visit this place if it fits in your itinerary! :)

Not so touristy place where you have to go to see its frescoes. A charming building not so well known. I loved it

The most beautiful experience of my life. You come in here and it's a dream. There is history, there is culture, there is experience. And above all a store where you can buy everything you want. From soaps, to colognes to spirits. Beware lovers because you might end up broke. The staff is attentive, kind, helpful and attentive.

This historic Pharmacy is one of the oldest in the world, it was founded in 1612 and is located very close to the Church of Santa Maria Novella and its entrance is beautiful, and when you are inside you feel like you are frozen in time. Everything is super well maintained and the most impressive of all is that it continues to operate today, not as a pharmacy but as a perfumery. It is known for its high quality products and for maintaining traditional methods in the production of its fragrances. They use natural ingredients and artisanal processes to create a wide range of perfumes, cologne, and other personal care and home products. Each of their fragrances has a container next to it so you can smell its aroma and thus choose which one you want to take. So every detail in the pharmacy is very well taken care of. The establishment, located in a former Dominican convent in Florence, is richly adorned with frescoes, antique furniture, and architectural details that reflect its long history. This preservation of the original style contributes to the unique and authentic atmosphere of the place, making a visit a historical experience as well as an opportunity to purchase its artisan products. Admission is free, I think it is also a must-see stop when visiting Florence.

I went around 10am and it was empty so it was easy to see! The Chinese staff who can speak Japanese gave us a lot of information, and it was easy to choose the products! The interior, products, and staff were all great ✨
