    Loooove this perfume and I love Guerlain. I walked by a bottle of this on display in my local dept store. I sprayed a tester and continued to smell it until I got home....I could not get this scent...

    I am not a purist or a Shalimar lover. Although I am not crazy about the scent, I really like it better than the original Shalimar. It goes on really strong like a urinal deodorant (ack!), but then...

    I've seen some glowing reviews on the blogs about this, but the perfume I experienced from the tester in a department store was just bloody awful! Synthetic floral with synthetic lavender thrown at...

    Wow what a pretty bottle and presentation! I expected the juice to be amazing for this reason! I had an older edt bottle of Shalimar which had the similar spade shape bottle as Shalimar Initial....

    I know there are purists who will refuse this concoction based on principal. I too cringed at the pink juice and potential to deface my dear Shalimar. You have to approach it like you are...

    I tried this on at Nordstrom yesterday, walked around for an hour, and came back for a second spritz so I could think about it some more. To me, this smells less like the original Shalimar and...
