Amazing little shop tucked away on 54th street. Great prices, their scents are very high quality and fragrant. Selling long sticks, 13 for $1, or you can have a batch of your favourite made 100 for $5! Really high quality, also selling the oils as well. Great people running the shop, highly recommend to anyone who loves incense, good deals or just an adventure :) cannot wait to try all the smells out!

Peace be into you. This is a fantastic business that was established by our wonderful brother Yahya who trained his family in the biz to carry on after his passing. Everyone seems passionate about the oils & are pleasant, knowledgeable, and just in their dealings with you.

Very large selection of fragrances that smell like every designer perfume and cologne i could think of. Very close or exact smell. Very friendly staff and owner.

Amazing fragrances, except service depends on the person you get. Could be good, could be real rude! But I go for the oils. They are exceptional.

I'm in business with him and they treat me well some very good people

Just spoke to a saleslady at Garden of Fragrance and she was rude, condescending and uncooperative. She denied selling us a bad batch of African green musk. The scent disappeared in two weeks on an unopened bottle. She even claimed they had "no best selling oil" . They all sell "equally", she claims, in response for a recommended scent. Not a place I will go back to

1/26/2018

I absolutely love this store. They have amazing incese, perfume fragrances & overall amazing customer service. A great business for the community.

If I could give this store extra stars, I would. Garden of Fragrance’s products and customer service are the best I’ve ever had. They genuinely want to help you find what you need and are willing to take the extra time and effort to find the perfect scents for you. They’re very kind and super knowledgeable and never disappoint!

The first time I visited Garden of Fragrance, I came with my sister to look for something to make our house smell better than something an air freshener could offer and were taken back by the overwhelming selection of scents they had! It was like a library of smells that could fit any mood or preference! Black Love is my family’s favorite home oil scents, but their kiwi strawberry one I was obsessed with!

My personal favorite however are their body oils! They have a huuuge range of scents to choose from, whether it’s simple lavender (which I love!) to boujie dupes (ie. Tom Ford and juicy couture) that smell EXACLTY like the real thing! The best part is that it’s a fraction of the price! Did I mention they last twice as long?? I bought the smallest oil that they sell two years ago and it’s still not even halfway empty! They’re strong scents that last all day because they don’t contain alcohol (which evaporate before you’re even halfway through the day). If I’m correct, you can even mix the oils to make your very own personal perfume, which kills me because I moved before I could make my Bath and Body Works vanilla lavender dupe ☹️

I might sound a bit too hyped about this store but that’s because I am! I’m all about smelling good and ever since I was introduced to this store, I can do so now without breaking the bank! What’s better is that I can still do it while in Europe now that I can order online!

Note: I wasn’t paid to write this review. I just really love this store! 🤗

They have a variety of good oils, always pleasant atmosphere

This is a beautiful place to purchase sweet scents-oils, incense, perfumes. clothing and other items. Garden of Fragrance is run by kind and considerate people who make the experience there one you will always cherish. The shop is easily accessible by several freeways and major arterial streets. It is also close to Downtown San Diego, several shopping centers and local eateries and businesses. Garden of Fragrance is one of San Diego's jewels.

10/1/2018

This is the only place I know of where you can buy pure Oil’s. No alcohol added. I believe the prices are reasonable when you consider that the fragrance last a long time. And they have so many fragrances. I put mine in a spritzer and people have commented on what a lovely fragrance I’m wearing

11/1/2018

I just was introduced to this place. They have so many oil based popular fragrances that they can pour for you in the for of a roll on. It's oil-based so the smell lasts longer. They even have scents similar to the ones in Victoria secret s and bath and body works. There prices were not even expensive! I found my new fragrance home. I recommend to check this place out!

12/1/2018

Awesome Products! Great Staff! You'll be pleasantly suprised And a repeat customer. I guarantee it!!💜

Delightful owners were personable and patient as we sniffed thru multiple fragrances to our heart's content.

The best oils ,soap incense in San Diego Ca.

11/10/2019

After living in the neighborhood it took me almost 6 months before I actually stopped by this business. It only took one visit and have been a regular ever since. Super friendly service and a lot of options to choose from. I typically purchase the custom scent 100 pack and more 13 for $1, but on my last visit I was turned onto their body oils, recommended. I'm not going to say the scent but I remember her saying, "Lookout!". She was spot on and I'm loving it. Thank you GOF for your service. ✌

Reasonably priced and smells so great!

Always respectful and get what I pay for

2/13/2020

Been going there since 2014 (approximately, maybe earlier) all I know is everytime i go it's almost as if I'm a college kid coming home, to do laundry and raid the fridge and get the warm feeling of being our 8f the cold. Guess it would be hard for any business to achieve this, yet Garden of fragrance does it in high form . BRAVO!!!

2/13/2020

First time there, love this place!!! Customer service excellent, responsive, very helpful without being pushy... Will DEFINITELY be a frequent customer!!

2/13/2020

Simple set up with just about any fragrances you can think of. Kind staff and reasonable prices.

I love the family that owns this shop, so many body oils and incense to choose from including chocolate!

7/8/2020

Nothing but great things to say about the products from this store as well as the amazing women who run it... 😍 Been going for 2+ years, and this is my favorite Home Fragrance and Body Oil Perfume San Diego Small Business treasure! They’re always doing collabs and featuring other local businesses. They have an extensive catalog and has a special unique scent for everyone. Amazing long wearing oil-based alcohol-free perfume dupes !! #WomeninBusiness #BlackOwnedBusiness #ShopSmallSanDiego 🤩

Great prices and customer service

11/9/2020

This is a nice small mom and pop fragrance store that sells insent fragrance I travel over 20miles to buy them you could sit them in a cup and let it air dry with the smell up the house or you could light one of them and enjoy the fragrance if you want a different smell drive there and buy a few.

12/10/2020

I wish I had found this place sooner. Huge variety of perfume oils. The lovely woman who waited on us was very helpful and knowledgeable. However, the owner is retiring. Most deservedly, I'm sure. You can order online, but visiting is quite a treat for the senses. Pictured are two of my favorites. Honeysuckle and White Rose. 🌹

12/10/2020

Just found this place & unfortunately they're closing at the end of the year. Wide variety of scents and good prices.
