Product details

Web ID: 9567221

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.

Beautiful fragrance.

Lovely fragrance. Beautifully packaged. Dab on, vs spray on perfume. The Guerlain Shalimar Perfume Extract smells almost identical to the Shalimar Eau De Parfum. I cannot smell a difference, yet the cost difference is substantial. My absolute favorite of the line of Shalimar fragrances is the 2025 version of Guerlain Shalimar, L'essence - Eau De Parfum Intense. The L'essence smells absolutely heavenly.

Fantastic

Although it is very expensive, Shalimar lasts for many years. It has been my signature perfume for over 40 years and because it is so rare, people always ask what is your beautiful perfume.

Shalimar the Best

I have worm Shalimar perfume for 46 years. It is my signature scent. I love the scent very feminine and sensual. I wear day and night. I even bought the Shalimar Gardens inspired ring, feminine, sensual, and diminutive. I do prefer the original scent but life is about change and I’ve grown quite fond of new scent. At first I was worried my body chemistry had changed and I couldn’t wear it. Very upset. Than I head about the reformulation, quite relieved. Thank you

Beautiful!

So happy I bought this! A beautiful fragrance and worth the expense. The perfume smells so much more complex than the eau de Parfum.

My Favorite Of All Times

I have been wearing Shalimar since it was $??.00 an ounce. Believe me that was a long time ago! I have tried different ones over the years and have always come back to Shalimar. I know it depends on the individuals body chemistry on how perfume smells, but I have had so many people compliment me over time that it’s amazing! I know men love the smell for sure! It is expensive now but it is well worth it and I’m worth it……
