I'm a perfume lover who reviews perfumes on
Youtube. Cloud Nine is a one of my favorite perfume stores in the
Netherlands. Last Sunday I payed them a visit and purchased Grand Neroli from
Cologne Atelier. During the time I spent in the shop, I also had an exclusive
interview with the owner. The brands they carry are:
To be on cloud nine means to
be blissfully happy. Here at Cloud Nine
store we have made a selection of the
finest in Fashion, Beauty, Food, Living and Gifts for you. All stuff
to make you happy. Enjoy Shopping at Cloud Nine Store!
The owners Rogier Donker and his sister Denise
started the store 5 years ago. They have both grown up in Amsterdam where
lifestyle is a daily bussines. Robert worked for years at one of the haute
couture stores at the famous PC Hoofdstraat. At Cloude Nine they do not sell
only perfumes. It is a lifestyle - concept store, in the centre of
Amsterdam - the Netherlands.
In some perfume stores they tell you about
fragrances, without looking at the person. This is not the case at Cloud Nine.
They will look at you first. Who are you and what will fit to
you.
Robert:
When someone walks into the
store I do a scan on a personal level. I combine the passion of that person
with the passion of the product that's been put in by the designer. It's all
about communication. And it works.
Rogier and Denise carefully selected products
that they like themselves with different styles, design and origin. And
the Cloud Nine collection is not only about exclusive products. You can
walk around, sniff perfumes, feel the cosy atmosphere and laugh
with the owners. There is no rush or hurry. The products vary from
exclusive Ineke perfumes, jewelry from Club Manhatten, till flip-flops
from Ipanema Gisele. In 2008 they opened a webshop that
makes shopping even easier.
Inside the store |
If you are in Amsterdam take one hour (including
the walk) to visit the Cloud Ninestore.
It is located in the Western part of the city Centre, only 15 minutes on
foot from the Central Station in the Jordaan neighborhood (where Anne Frank's
house is). After visiting Cloud Nine you could easily walk out with a little
upgrade on your lifestyle.
My favorite fresh for summer Neroli fragrance from the store |
My other favourite scents in Cloud Nine are
Nasomatto - Black Afgano for winter, Von Eusersdorff - Mimosa for fall
and Ineke - Fieldnotes from Paris for spring (& fall). Not to forget
the gorgeous Cire Trudon candles... and I love the Ipanema Gisele flip-flops.
