Hi Carolyn,

Yes, it’s a sad loss. Retail continues to struggle.

Appalled to read that Fenwicks is no longer, always enjoyed popping into their ‘smellies’ section.

Carolyn, thank you so much for this kind message.

Yes, the current reality feels so far removed from what was normal just a short time ago.

I do hope you’ll be able to enjoy a London trip in 2021.

I do check every so often to see if info has been added, existing info amended etc so was delight to find this latest edition of the Shopping Guide. I was also appalled, & I do apologise fort his, to find that I had not responded to your kind request to let you know how things went on our visit to London last November. I can only think that we didn’t do a great deal of perfume-related stuff, although my diary does mention a visit to the lovely Floral Street shop. We always take just hand carry bags, & of course the restrictions on liquids (still in place after so long, no idea why this should be) means purchasing a ‘proper’ bottle doesn’t enter the equation, which I find frustrating. We had a trip planned for this year, again going to the ATP Finals at the O2, but of course this is now being played with no audience in attendance, plus BA has cancelled our return flight, which is just a pain for us itinerary-wise, so after much discussion about the current situation everyone is living with, & counting out possibly travelling by train as it is exorbitantly expensive, we have cancelled the trip completely – first time in 23 years Marion & I will not be in London around the beginning of the festive season! I do hope all is well with you & yours, & that you are adjusting to the way it seems we will be living for some time yet.

I was wondering if the guide had migrated to your new site, so checked, & behold some new info. Notes duly made for my London trip with my friend Marion – though it’s in Nov this year as it was last year, for the season end ATP finals at the O2 as opposed to the ‘seniors’ event at the Albert Hall, which we’ve attended for over 20 years but feel it’s gone a bit off the boil in recent times, hence the change.

Carolyn, you are more than welcome. Thanks so much for reading. You know what… I've yet to find that perfume shop.

I do check on a regular basis for updates, but had obviously missed this latest edition! Whichever perfume shop near the about-to-close Seymour Place Les Senteurs a couple of people have mentioned is on my list for my next London trip.

Anon, thanks again 🙂 I'll have to investigate the Nicolai situation. Sadly, no, I'm not overly familiar with Westfields.
