Citypharma

I recently visited a toiletry shop in Paris that offered discount on range of products The store’s layout was neat and well-organized, making it easy to find what I was looking for. The staff were attentive and knowledgeable, providing helpful recommendations. I was particularly impress skincare brands and perfumes, all priced more competitively than in other shops I visited. Whether you’re a local or a tourist, I highly recommend this store for all your toiletry needs.

Omg! Wow wow!! Not the good wow. I have never done any kind of shopping on a Black Friday due to fear of crowd but i found myself doing so here! It was insane in there!! Literally insane! We walked in and couldn’t even move! It was a mosh pit of people just grabbing at things and looking at things. You definitely have to squeeze through to get past people! I’d never come back here! It was just too much! The line did move fast to check out though and of course, it was a frenzy shopping experience because everyone was grabbing at stuff so I ended up buying things I didn’t even need. It was almost impossible to talk to anyone to get help. Also, what’s strange is the VAT here is only 3% but I bought a few things at another pharmacie and it was at 14%! So I paid 333euros but only got 18euros back but at another pharmacy, I paid 133E and got 18euros back as well. So confusing how that works bc they’re both phamarcies. Advice: go in knowing exactly what you want. Check prices ahead of time. Don’t be timid, just say excuse me and push through. Don’t go on a Saturday haha🤪 maybe go right when they open or right before they close? I have no idea. Maybe it’s always crazy in there. Or shop at another smaller pharmacy if you’re not buying a lot. I didn’t even check my receipt, maybe you should before leaving. It was just so chaotic and rhey wanted you out immediately after checking out that you wouldn’t even have time to look! I If you’re into leisure shopping, I def don’t recommend going here. It’s not enough for me to save a few dollars but I was definitely an experience.

Best prices in Paris with a huge variety of products. Staff is somewhat helpful. Crowded on weekends and holidays.

Super chaotic as there are like a zillion people in the store. First floor is all your beauty products, so you should have the "lay of the land" before attacking it. LOL. Top floor is dental everything you could think of. I bought a bunch of beauty product, and have to say they are definitely cheaper than other pharmacies or department stores so it is worth all that chaos. One of the best purchases are these EUR 1.50 nail filers in super cute designs. The French really do not seem to have good logistical systems for payments. The entire building only has five check out lines. ??? The line snakes around the store. I have experienced the same thing in other stores. Would I go again, absolutely! All I can say is embrace the chaos, their logistics when it comes to paying, you can chalk it up to the French charm.

I went at 8pm before it closed at 9pm and many of the more popular items were sold out. The store was still very crowded and the employees would actively walk away from customers that were looking for help (except one or two that looked exceptionally knowledgeable and helpful). I ended up going to a small local pharmacy that had all of the main items and much better service. It was a better experience overall. Would not recommend wasting your time here.

Went on a Friday afternoon hence there were a lot of people. There was a long queue at the cashier but the line was fast moving. The sales assistants were very friendly and accommodating. As per my friend who was with me, some of their prices are cheaper than those she found at the CDG airport duty free.

Stopped by with no line to get in, but inside was absolute mayhem! They’ve done a great job marketing this place, and it was packed with American shoppers. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, though I got the impression they push products within their sections (could be wrong). Prices are good, but I found similar deals in non-touristy pharmacies—without the chaos. If you’re in the area, it’s worth a stop, but don’t wait forever in line. Plenty of other pharmacies in Paris offer great selections and competitive pricing in a much calmer setting.

Visited this pharmacy on my recent trip to Paris. I was surprised I was charged with an item I didn’t buy. I didn’t check my receipt until I got back in the US. Too late to complain. Reading at all the reviews I’m not the only one who complained about being overcharged, so be careful. I love the store with its huge selection of skin care products but it is super crowded. Was looking for particular brand but the lady working there insisted that my skin doesn’t need Vit C and promoted all these line of products from Condese Paris which I’m not familiar with. She advised that I should try those stuff I bought for my oily skin with bumps & redness. She advised also my friend who travelled with me to try these Condese skincare products.
