Strange is right. The vibe inside is always odd and cold. They can't seem to keep many of the skincare brands I used to frequent them for and they have quite the stick up their butts. Also, the price increase on the perfumes (more than doubled without an adequate or satisfactory explanation) was just weird.

My husband and I stopped in today and had an absolutely amazing experience. Grace was extremely friendly and attentive. The perfumes here are truly in a league of their own, and their curation of green beauty products reviles some clean beauty stores. If you're looking to be transported across the globe from one new scent to the next, I highly recommend visiting this shop.

Terrific product line of botanical perfumes. A lot of them are unisex And while the price point is on the higher side, they do offer smaller bottles as well as samples to purchase. Customer service was great and I definitely plan on going back to smell the rest of the fragrances they have to offer. The Black Rosette is spectacular

I've been in several times and while I haven't purchased a Strange Invisible scent yet (they are quite expensive), however I have the 3 picked out that I want for when the day comes I will be gifted one or purchase one myself. Shaun, who works the shop most of the time, is very sweet and easy to engage. She has walked me through every scent offered with interesting explanations for each of them. She will listen and notice what you like and don't like about each scent and bring forward other scents that may be a better fit for your current tastes (which can change day to day.. it's interesting). She's quite professional yet fun. If you know someone special to you who is very cautious about what they put on their skin, body, face I highly recommend a gift from this shop. Shaun will put it in a pretty black and white bag for you that looks every part high end gift. I imagine receiving a perfume from here would be such a token of value and appreciation. I'd feel very special indeed and if it came from someone romantic, I would simply melt knowing what a special and expensive treat I have just received. These perfumes are hand made, in Venice!, and meticulously created with quality all-natural ingredients. Again, no greenwashing here... they are made from plants, flowers, barks, etc.. no synthetic chemicals whatsoever. In talking with Shaun about the ingredients, I was very satisfied with all the answers I received and felt they were truthful and genuine. From what I gather, the founder is someone like me who is extremely aware of all the toxic chemicals in skincare, fragrance and really any product and goes to great lengths to seek out (and in her case make) brands that truly deliver this. A non-toxic haven. In the back of the store is an all-natural (in the true sense, not like greenwashed brands that tout being "all-natural" yet you find all kinds of chemicals in the ingredient list) beauty shop that is artfully curated. I know of almost all these brands already from shopping at The Detox Market- they are mostly high-end, quality brands and some have a cult following. Skin Owl, Gressa, Rituel de Filles (hope I spelled that right), some really beautiful nail polishes, and more skin care, body and cosmetics. It's a lovely one-stop shop if you're in the area. The Strange Invisible store itself is a luxurious, somewhat minimalistic, Cali-meets-Paris space of carefully edited offerings amidst beautiful, simple decor. When walking Abbot Kinney, I like to stop in for the pleasant experience and to pick up any organic skincare I am in need of. My advice to S.I. would be to make bottles of perfume (besides the zodic scents) in much smaller and affordable volumes. Most of my favorites fall outside the zodiac selection, and I have not been able to spend close to $500, if I remember correctly, for my favorite scent. The prices are steep, even for an organic, non-toxic product. Really steep. $300-500 for a modest bottle of perfume is hard for me to fathom.

Loved the fragrances & appreciated that you could buy individual samples. The offerings in the back were pretty good too! Keep up the tight editing in the back—those of us who love natural beauty are pretty savvy are looking to a store like SIP to be a tastemaker & curator of only the best, more so than other bigger natural beauty stores who have a wider selection and thus can afford to offer a range of quality/integrity. I know SIP makes some of the best botanical perfumes, so if I buy their skincare I'm hoping to discover new brands that are equally uncompromising in excellence.
