Staff here are excellent, polite, and courteous and believe me, I've been to many luxury boutiques and this one, so far, is the one to beat.
Upon entering, we were greeted by Salman. I have been wanting to own a Montblanc fountain pen for sometime now and prior to this visit, I only have a vintage Montblanc meisterstruck from the 80s, which isn't terrible but I wanted to see what the store had to offer. I have only been exposed to Japanese fountain pens until this visit so I walked in with a blank canvas though I was aware of their many special collections. Salman basically gave my husband and I the VIP tour and it was amazing!!! I originally thought I was going to get the a pen with Le Petit Prince...resin barrel and all. Salman not only had me try the different non-fountain pen range, but he made sure we find the perfect fountain pen nib that would best suit the size of my hand and how I write. I told Salman that we were celebrating our honeymoon and so he got us a bottle of champagne to celebrate as we tried on all the different nibs that Montblanc had to offer. Upon Salman retrieving the champagne glasses, he happened to see something that he knew would interest me. DUN DUN DUN, the limited edition 1901 Walt Disney Fountain pen. I'm a BIG Disney fan so...the story practically ends here. Not only that, he gave us two inks and a Walt Disney notebook ON THE HOUSE. It was fabulous. Salman was amazing throughout this experience and this Montblanc visit was one of the best luxury shopping experience thus far. Thank you Salman for such a great walk-through, and an amazing pen shopping experience!!!! FYI, this boutique is the biggest one in the UK. If you're a serious pen aficionado and you want to try a Montblanc fountain pen, you cannot go wrong with this store. I plan on visiting again whenever I'm in London. Cheers!
