A while back I found this store in the middle of Berlin and I have been wanting to share this nugget with those of you who dont already know about it, the mentioning of it in the "bought in may" has finally made me sit down and do it.
I talked to the owner about basenotes and eventhough he hadnt heard of us beforehand he seemed very interested and gave me the allowance to broach him and his store on here.
The shop is located in Berlin, right in the centre and close to Friedrichstrasse and specialised in traditional shaving and - mainly- exclusive perfumes.
Jens Poenitzsch opened it in 2006 (I think) and it has become some kind of a well known insiders tip.
I have been a frequent guest in his shop since november and I still have too much to try out.
The service is excellent, the team will do whatever they can to make a transaktion succesful and the customer happy. (shipping etc)
Besides the Knize scents and many other niches the shop also offers some lines that I have rarely heard of or read about: Linari, Marc Buxton (the whole line is simply amazing) etc.
I have to admit that right now I am mainly benefitting from his sample selling, I just want to give the intoxicating ones more than one whiff before shooting a whole bottle and besides, there are so many incredibly fragrances in those 2 rooms, it would be a shame not to give them their try.
So whenever you should find yourself in Berlin with time at your hand, pay the different scent a visit.
