MY ONLY FRAGRANCE Bangkok

About MY ONLY FRAGRANCE Bangkok

MY ONLY FRAGRANCE is a custom perfume shop from Kyoto, Japan, with several Bangkok branches. The one at these coordinates is near Chula Soi 5 in the Suan Luang area of Pathum Wan, and the brand also lists counters at Siam Discovery, Siam Paragon, Emporium and ICONSIAM. A staff member guides you one-to-one at a tasting-style bar of numbered scents.

You pick 2 to 5 of more than 40 scents, often without seeing their names, and test them on paper strips. Staff help you adjust the blend, and then you name your perfume and choose a font for the label. It takes about 30-45 minutes. The result is an eau de parfum: 50 ml from THB 2,500, 100 ml from THB 3,000, and a reed diffuser from THB 2,800. You also get a formula sheet so you can reorder.

Making scents for each other, or one shared scent, makes a memorable date gift. A Lemon8 reviewer recommends it for couples and suggests skipping your own perfume beforehand so your nose stays fresh. Hours were given as 12:00-20:00 daily. Book through Instagram, Facebook, email or phone, and give at least a day's notice to change a booking.
