    The oldest apothecary in America! Vast selection of hard to find European products. The house line products are also good, especially their lovely lemon body lotion (smells nothing like lemon)

    The perfume selection is one of my favorites in the city. And Stacey is an expert (and fun!) in helping you choose a scent when u can't quite describe what u like in words. Ask for him!

    Staff was attentive and friendly. A member of the team saw the child I was with was board and offered a free manicure/nail painting that mad the shopping experience that much better.

    Despite what you've been led to believe, Gillette is not the best a man could get. They have pretty much every Proraso product *cheaper* than Amazon. Definitely coming back.

    Marvelous repertoire of curated toiletries not available anywhere else. I stock up (in bulk) on their Dr Harris Arlington shave cream & Marvis toothpastes. Definitely worth it. Divine.

    Ever wondered what an apothecary looks like? Here's a great example. Love the mix of product. Never seem to be able to leave without at least one NEST Candle and a new bottle of Mentha Shower Gel.

    Sure, there's NARS and Dr. Hauschka but we really love C.O. Bigelow's own line of natural skincare. Two perpetual faves: Mentha Lip Balm and Rose Salve. Affordable enough to invest in several.

    I grew up two blocks away from this beauty emporium, which still retains an old-world charm. Bonus: I’ve spotted celebs like Julia Roberts and Kate Moss shopping here! —Eva Chen, beauty director

    Outstanding old-school pharmacy and general store of sorts. Great customer service and a huge selection of items including their own house brand Bigelow line of shampoos, lotions, etc. Good stuff.

    This historic apothecary is a West Village institution that once filled prescriptions for the likes of John Belushi and Mark Twain.

    Their green tea candle is the best, and they'll wrap it -- making it the perfect hostess gift.
