Pros & Cons
- ✅ I love Shalimar and I found out that the Eau De Toilette-versions works better with my skintype. This one is a little bit more fresh and airy then the original. Less is more, 1 spritz will make you smell wonderful for several hours, if you spritz too much this will turn overwhelming and thick. I love the lemon/vanilla/leather/sandalwood/incense mix. Very sexy, very female, very elegant. A classic. Longlasting om my skin.
- ✅ I did not expect to like the edt but I really like this edt. It really smells a lot like the reformulation version of Jicky. I love the new Jicky. This is a nice version of the much much beloved Shalimar.
- ✅ I have the shalimar EDP in 30ml and Shalimar Edition Charms in 75ml EDP. I have tested them on my skin. They really smell alike. In fact i can hardly tell the difference when comparing the scents.
- ✅ when I wear this I instantly feel confident, glamorous & beautiful, she make's me want to go out into the world for everyone to see/smell me & share the glorious atmosphere that this amazingly beautiful perfume creates around me just like putting on a fabulous pair of heel's, Shalimar empower's me & fill's me with pride I feel like I am the leading lady of a glorious, luxurious & historic love story I am totally in love with this edition of SHALIMAR
- ✅ I am wearing this today and I must say it's a gorgeous Shalimar. (Please note that this Charms edition exists only in EDP. No Edt was made in this bottle. The other Charms bottle issued in 2010 is Eau de Shalimar, but it's a different fragrance being lighter and more citrusy.) To me, its almost identical to the classic Shalimar EDP, only i must notice it's heavier on the bergamot and on the cedar side, compared to the classical version that to my nose is more oriental vanillic. All in all they're very similar. It is very potent! My bottle is more than 10 years old so maybe it got stronger with time. Gorgeous, warm and strong - good for today, as we've got a wintry, chilly and cold day- but not loud in the least. Stunning bottle that I cherish as it has been discontinued.

- ❌ I really wanted to love this perfume after reading the beautiful reviews and desperately wanting to own it. I finally got to try it but sadly i just could not stand the intense scent. It smelt like burnt resin and tar to me it did not age well and seemed to intensify as time went on. I am going to try a softer scent in this range and see how that goes. So if your the type that wears fruity sweet scents well then i think you may be dissapointed in this enchanting love story scent.
