Where can one buy Joop women's perfume in a physical store in NY/NJ?

December 21, 2015 9:53 PM

It has come to my attention that a family member would like a refill of her Joop EDT for Christmas, but it is obviously now too late to purchase online. Looking at their websites, it seems like the usual suspects - Macy's, Perfumania, Kohl's, JCPenney, Sephora, do not carry Joop for women in store, neither is it on shelves in Duane Reade or Walgreens. If anyone has recently spotted this rare bird in a store (in Manhattan or near Rte 80 between the Hudson and the Delaware) please let me know... HELP ME METAFILTER YOU'RE MY ONLY HOPE.

Best answer: Perfume Americana has it on its website. It has a little store front at 11 W 30th Street between Broadway and 5th Ave, that part of town where a lot of the stores say 'wholesale' or 'import/export' but will also sell retail to drop-in customers.

Actually, around that area you'll - from about 27th to 31st St on Broadway - you'll probably find about 25 wholesale-ish perfume stores, many of which will sell retail, as they've realised the tourist market is lucrative.

It's definitely not too late. You have 2:36 from now to get it the 23rd from amazon.

Response by poster: THANKYOU! I called the place on 30th and they have it in stock so will I pick it up today (also, conveniently close to the office). Christmas saved!
