Shalimar has been my go-to for decades. My mom was a shalimar lady and this scent remains near and dear. The intensity of this perfume is wonderful! Sensual, romantic and intense. Love it
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This classic perfume is elegant and warm, making it great for fall and winter. The bottle is beautiful and makes for a great display bottle. The scent is strong but also long-lasting with warm notes that I might not gravitate towards so much in spring and summer, but will use it as a transitional scent heading into fall.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is what I would consider to be a mature and sophisticated scent. You can definitely pick up on the vanilla and amber. It also has a powdery smell. Would be best for a black tie event or with formal attire. The packaging is also very elegant. Long lasting scent, even after running errands all morning and afternoon. It is not my usual scent profile, but I will use it on formal occasions.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This perfume has a really nice balance of vanilla and floral notes. The vanilla is not too sweet or overpowering and the floral scent complements the vanilla, rather than competing with it. The wearability of the scent lasts a while although I wouldn’t say it lasts all day. The bottle is beautiful. I loved this perfume so much I used it as my wedding day scent!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is definitely a more sophisticated frangance and not something I would reach for everday. It is a more powdery smell than I prefer. It does become warmer and more vanilla comes through as it wears. It is a complex scent that I might wear for a dressier night out.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like Guerlain Shalimar L’Essence! The bottle is absolutely beautiful. I’ve never smelled the original Shalimar, so I can’t quite compare the two, but I really enjoyed this fragrance on its own. The opening is definitely very powdery with vanilla that feels rich without being overly sweet. I especially love the powdery quality, it gives this fragrance a soft, elegant feel. The vanilla is subtle, in a good way. It has a soft projection, but I can still smell it on me hours after applying it. If you love warm powdery vanilla fragrance this is definitely one to try!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The design of the bottle is nice, kind of old fashioned looking. The scent is quite musky, powdery and vanilla forward. It is not my cup of tea- thus the rating.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Strong perfume that lasts all day. Packaging is very sexy and unique and looks beautiful on my nightstand. The scent works for all four seasons which I love. Sexy and grown.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Old money is the best way to describe this scent! It's full of amber and vanilla which creates a warm scent that surrounds you for the day! It has a great wear time and I continue to notice it even at the end of my work day. The bottle is classy and timeless, definitely will add to my collection! Bottom line: want to give old money mysterious woman vibes? This is it.
