    LOVE. This fragrance is amazing. What a classic, and for good reason. The initial assault of bergamot and lemon is sharp and spicy, but I love the way the citrus settles down into iris, and...

    I was going through some of my fragrance reviews way back when I first started really getting into fragrance. I initially wrote Shalimar off as an " old lady " scent! **Gasp**. Hangs head in shame...

    I am a self confessed guerlain freak but heavens to betsy this is so beautifully made with such high quality ingredients I think it can be admired as a piece of art. When I first bought it in the...

    Oh my god! I'm new to Guerlain perfumes and I'm scared to check out any more because my bank account can't handle it! I actually started with Shalimar Parfum Initial, which is...not a lot like...

    AMAZING perfume. Granted this is "supposed" to be out of my age range but what the hey. I cant explain how it smells but I love it. Staying power is amazing...I actually like it about 20 mins after...

    A beautiful perfume which like so many other great fragrances suffers from a bad reputation that comes from it being over-applied. A lot of fabulous scents are very strong and need only be used in...

    This was a surprise! Shalimar is normally a fragrance that I hated. The first burst of whatever note it is, is off putting. However, the more I smelled it, the more I got used to it and liked it....

    Inheriting a bottle from my grandmother, I'm sure the formula has since changed, or the bottle I have has since taken on its own distinct smell. (For reference: the shape of the bottle I have is a...

    I love this! It is so different than everything else I have. I wanted a perfume that smelled like incense (but a sweet incense not over the top smoke), so I ordered some nag Champa oil from Ebay &...

    This is not an inexpensive perfume, but I'm fascinated by fragrances that stand the test of time, so I procured a bottle a few days ago and I must say it was a fantastic impulse buy. Shalimar is by...

    Re the "old lady" comments. If you are into simple dewey eyed innocence, this is not the frag for you. Shalimar is not for little girls.

    This review is for the edp. I was unsure when I first tried it, as it goes on with STRONG citrus and a medicinal smokey incense smell. Drydown is GORGEOUS powdery vanilla and lingers for ages....

    This is for the edt version -- "the Batman bottle" :P The parfum is 100% purely sublime, nearly perfect in every way. Its euphoric and spellbinding in a way only Samsara has ever been, to my...

    My signature scent. A true classic that I believe deserves every bit of praise it gets. It is sensual and sexy while still being feminine and refined (and isn't that what we as women always want to...

    Come on, let's be honest. If this weren't pitched as a "fragrance icon," it would be here and gone in a season. Or never even get to market. It's powder in the worst way (and I am a fan of...
