Pros & Cons
- ✅ This was a surprise... BEAUTIFUL 8.5/10
- ✅ It’s still my favorite Shalimar.
- ✅ Stunning! I absolutely love this Shalimar flanker.
- ✅ The best modern interpretation of Shalimar in my book.
- ✅ Shalimar Cologne is a whipped lemon, musk, and vanilla sponge cake... Compliments galore!
- ✅ This is one of my all time favorites.
- ✅ Wow, this is a heavenly scent. Soft vanilla with lemon cake accord. Love it!
- ❌ A bit too sweet for me, I'm afraid to wear it!
- ❌ Not my cup of tea either. Does have that nasty smell of tires shalimar has.
- ❌ I really wanted to like this one... but after about 30 minutes, any perfume with a freesia note always always always makes me feel nauseous.
- ❌ A bit too sweet for me, I'm afraid to wear it! Maybe because its spring/summertime now.
- ❌ I really wanted to like this one because that lemon sugar cookie description some people gave of it sounds so amazing! But. I should not have ignored the freesia note in this... after about 30 minutes, any perfume with a freesia note always always always makes me feel nauseous.
