About the Product

First introduced in 1990, Guerlain Shalimar Perfume is a sophisticated modern update to the classic 1925 scent. This warm amber perfume has an inviting floral aroma with mysterious, smoky undertones. When you wear Shalimar, you can channel vintage glamor in a contemporary world.

Fragrance Family:

Amber, spicy

Scent Type:

Warm, woody, floral, smoky, animalic

Notes:

Fresh citrus accords like bergamot, lemon and mandarin orange combine with cedar in Shalimar's top notes. The perfume's middle notes contain three classic floral notes of jasmine, iris and rose, along with earthy accords of patchouli and vetiver. The amber base is a complex blend of scents. Classic vanilla and tonka bean notes complement darker accords like leather, civet, sandalwood, musk, opoponax and incense. These aromas create an alluring, opulent scent that exudes classic feminity.

Suggested Use

For long-lasting fragrance that you can carry throughout the day and to minimize the need for reapplying, focus on your pulse points behind your ears, at the base of your neck and on your wrists as well as warmer areas of the body, such as behind the knees and inside the elbow. These are the best places to apply your fragrance since the scent intensifies by the warmth of your body.

Shalimar by Guerlain

Shalimar is a bold fragrance that I only wear in the winter. It is floral, spicy and woodsy. It is warm and surrounds you up to four feet in this delicious, spicy fragrance. Shalimar is an older fragrance, but one that will last you a long time with few sprays.

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Shalimar Perfume

I have worn Shalimar for over forty years. I especially love the shower gel. I usually buy the cologne fragrance but, recently, my husband bought me the perfume. It doesn't even smell like Shalimar! I'm not sure how I'll get through this large bottle. I question whether it is the same fragrance.

Great price, authentic product, reliable delivery

Product smells great and the cologne version makes it less oppressive in the heat that I live in. The downside to that is the longevity of the fragrance - it lasts for about 2h before requiring a top-up. After I'm done with this, I'll probably get a bottle of the Eau de Parfum but will only use that in formal events where louder scents thrive. Beautiful flacon though! I like the ribbed bottle a lot more than the look of the modern Shalimar EdPs.

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Bought mine years ago and always loved it.

I was in my early 40s when I first tried Shalimar. it was a birthday gift from my husband and I must say- I loved it! I wore it every time I wore perfume. However at one stage I found it very hard to buy Shalimar- it was just so scarce to find. I now have another bottle- a Christmas gift waiting to be opened. Love this Guerlain classic- spicy and earthy at the same time. It may not be for everyone- but that is the nature of fragrance- it suits certain people and I am one of them. I am in my early 70s now and I can say it is still one of my favourite fragrances, still. (I also love the very rare and expensive Balenciaga Le Dix, Chanel no 5 and Paola Picasso fragrance, too.)

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Shalimar by Guerlain

I have smelled Shalimar on women for many years now but have never tried it until now. I don't recall every purchasing anything like it before. It is floral, yet spicy and reminds me of a trip I took to India about 10 years back. It also has an earthy, woodsy undertone. It is an exotic scent. It is beautiful with the opening and middle notes. However, the dry down doesn't last on my skin or clothes for more than three hours or so. I ordered the cologne, but I am going to order the parfum because it has more concentrated oils and may last longer. I love the exotic smell enough to pay for the parfum and the body lotion.

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

It's my soul, Shalimar is one of the iconic perfumes and I love it. Always have it my collection. It's strong, but not overpowering, it's citrusy, but not fresh, it's spicy, but not too much, it's powdery, but not suffocating. It's simply genius creation.
