Shalimar is the first fragrance of its kind. A mythic fragrance with bergamot, iris and vanilla notes; an intense wake with a touch of impertinence, always glowing which embodies skin-caressing sensuality with a hint of the forbidden. Inspired by the passionate love story between an emperor and an Indian princess, Shalimar, which means "temple of love" in Sanskrit, symbolizes the promise of eternal love forevermore. It is a fragrance of desire.
- Top Notes: Bergamot, Lemon
- Middle Notes: Opoponax, Tonka Bean, Jasmine, Rose
- Base Notes: Iris, Incense, Vanilla, Benzoin
Heads up for younger buyers!
As a younger person being constantly surrounded by very sweet and overwhelming scents at school caliber really sticks out and is a personal favorite! But please dont buy this if youre not a fan of those strong granny perfumes. What I mean is shalimar starts off VERY strong. Like when you go to the thrift and find an old but full Avon perfume and crack it open and suddenly the whole isle can smell it. But with that being said that swift kick of alcohol is short lived. After less than 5 minutes it settles and its amazing. Powdery yes, but the sent reminds me of when you drink tea with fresh farm honey. The longer it sits the sweeter it gets. If you dont have any places where you can go in a test it here are some perfumes that behave similarly to shalimar: Oscar by Oscar de la renta, Avon (like thrift store Avon) and tabu by Dana. These scents essentially kick ya square in the jaw with a harsh alcohol scent and then proceed to make love to ya as my mom says. Overall amazing!

My favorite perfume for over half a century!
I consider this a standard when it comes to perfumes. Everyone should have it in their perfume collection. It's getting harder to find but is still one of the best out there. I always get compliments on it and love the way the aroma makes me feel .
