Pros & Cons
- ✅ Effortless timeless, ever so modern, sensual yet comforting…
- ✅ Shalimar is one of those perfect perfumes. Everything about it is perfect; there is not a single thing wrong with it, and nothing should be different.
- ✅ I have finally decided to test it, and I'm in love.
- ✅ 1925 bergamot-floral-vanilla opulent timeless Shalimar parfum
- ✅ Sophisticated mood-or-season independent feminine
- ❌ I bought a decant bottle of Shalimar and I really don’t like the openning, it is like urine smell to my nose.
- ❌ the sourness is absolutely PUNGENT unlike any other version I've tried, then it remained strong and slightly unpleasant until the drydown
- ❌ it only lasts at most 3hs… for something that retails at this price point it’s a bit disappointing
- ❌ Modern batches lack vintage density
- ❌ Rubbery-medicinal opening polarizes
