Wiloh is amazing and she is slowly transforming the store. I can't wait to see what she does next!

A few months ago, when I really wanted a new fragrance, I was delighted to find that Perfume Mendo was still operating, and has transitioned into Mendo Rose Parfumerie & Essential Oils! Because I wanted a unique new scent for my birthday, I contacted the owner, Willoh, to see if she could help. I knew this would be no easy task, as I have been searching for a particular blend of scents that no one--and no perfume--has been able to fulfill. After she heard what I wanted, Willoh created three different scents and sent them for me to try. They were all close but not exactly what I wanted, so Willoh created a new scent. All I can say is WOW! It is exactly what I've been searching for--a delicious vanilla with orange blossom and citrus. Willoh designed a Soul Scent, just for me! She named it Bliss, and I couldn't be happier. Thanks, Willoh--I will be back for more!

I was skeptical about going to this store, as I have been to other perfumery stores before that offer the same thing as a department store. This place is totally different- you will find very unique scents imported from all over the world, many which you may not have ever experienced before. The new owner Wiloh is very kind, and will spend time with you to make sure you find the right scent. She also wrote the names of each scent that she sprayed on a scent tab, so I could compare them later. She is hoping to make some custom scents in the future (the old owner did this) so I am looking forward to returning!

All I can say is wow, what a pleasant surprise my visit to this tucked away, quaint perfumery shop during my first Mendocino trip was! I was seeking a boutique perfumery bar with non-commercialized, high-end and high quality fragrances, both domestic and foreign... and that was exactly what I found at Mendo Rose. The new shop owner, Willoh, was an absolute gem - so pleasant, knowledgeable, and passionate about perfumes and oils! My two hours spent with her was full of discovery of new scents, history of brands and products... the time just flew by, and I such a blast hanging out in her shop! There were so many eclectic brands of perfumes from floor to ceiling behind the counter, I wish I had more time to sample them all. However, based on the scent profile that I provided to Willoh, she guided me to some of her most recommended selections, and they all hit the mark (swoon!). I literally had to force myself to leave her store in time for my dinner reservation, but happily left with two new lovely fragrances to add to my collection. :) This shop is a must see during your visit to this area! I can't wait to visit again.
