It’s gorgeous and I never tire of it. Have purchased soooo many bottles of it. I discovered it when I was in school for dental assisting and one of my instructors wore the eau de cologne. I have that version but I really love the EDT and EDP. I need to try the extrait!

I must have smelt Shalimar for the first time in ballet class. It was my teacher's one and only perfume and it still is now, about 40 years later. And it was her mother's only fragrance before. So these two ladies might have worn Shalimar nearly on a daily basis ever since it was created., considering that her mother must have been born around 1905. Fascinating!

The first time I smelled Shalimar was when my late grandmother showed her Shalimar collection when I was in high school and she spritzed some of it on me, and she gushed over Shalimar, and explained to me the differences between perfume, EDP, EDT, and I remember she has the Eu de cologne. When I was a teenager, she gave me a tiny bottle of the perfume and the body veil and I would splash on the perfume during special occasions, and the body veil I still have. I used the body veil for my wedding reception where my grandmother attended it, and then I applied it during my grandmother's funeral. It's a very lush scent, and I love the woody powdery vanilla scent. It fits so well during fall and winter, and during special occasions, plus date night! :) I did grow up with liking Lucky You by Lucky Brand when I was in high school as well as Cool Water by Davidoff, but Shalimar just had this extra luxuriousness and maturity to it that I enjoy quite a lot. My mom's favorite perfume is L'air du Temps by Nina Ricci, and I love its floral notes, and it's another one of my favorites. Though Shalimar will be a fragrance that will always keep me feeling connected to my grandmother. I just got the EDT of Shalimar on discount, and I got the shower gel on discount as well, and quite happy.

I had the same visceral experience: When I smell this, my mind is seemingly transported to my earliest youthful memories. As you said, I cannot placed anymore, and doubt if I came across this at that time. Forensically, I really can't imagine where I would have. Yet, there is something so hauntingly familiar, and deeply comforting; like an ancient intimacy. After writing a review on Shalimar's virtues, I was startled to learn that this was true for a surprising large populous. I'm so glad to know I wasn't the only one!

Oh I'm so glad you've mentioned the deja vu-effect Shalimar has. So strange :) I'm having the same experience since I grew to love Shalimar and it's almost impossible that I had any contact with it earlier in my life growing up in Poland. It wasn't that popular in the 90s like Dior's Poison was for example. I have never experienced anything like that with other classics like No 5 or Mitsouko. I remember my first encounter, being a perfumista-toddler back then, I was shocked by the explosive concoction of sweet vanilla rubber with the spark of citrus - I didn't like it, really. Wanting to understand the phenomena, I stubbornly kept coming back to it and after a time the aggressive rubber note went away and one of the most beautiful sweet vanilla with an alibi (leather and civet!) was revealed to me :)

Actually I do enjoy Souffle de Parfum - this is the first one from Shalimar family that I have smelled (got it as a free sample). I'm not a huge fan of oriental, woody or spicy scents but Souffle de Parfum was perfect for me for special occasions when I was in high school - not to fruity or floraly but also not to woody. This description definitely doesn't make them seem captivating, but maybe I'm just into some sort of "muffled" scents. When I wore Souffle de Parum, I have even been told that I smell expensively. Lately I found that old sample bottle of Souffle de Parfum and I think thet I'm going to give it a try. When had a chance to smell Shalimar EDP I found it too heavy for myself. I really enjoyed the smell but it just doesn't suit me

I am fortunate enough to own a bottle of Shalimar from the 70s. It was a gift from a French friend to my grandmother and this passed to my mum and she gave it to me. It must have at least 150ml left, but it’s been kept on her dressing table for decades, so it’s difficult to tell whether it’s “off” or whether this was the intended smell that has subsequently developed - probably a combination of both! It’s very different from the current formulation. I wear it on my wrist from time to time because I can work around the obstacles. I do love Shalimar and as a result of this video, I’ve invested in a 30 ml bottle of EDT and 90ml bottle of EDP. I’ve gone a bit mad since I’ve been bingeing on your videos - I’m balancing out due to some appalling pre Christmas purchases! The bottle is very 70’s, teardrop shaped, but with an Eastern/Asian style golden plastic cap (probably a nod to the backstory) and nowhere near as elegant as the current iteration.

I have just come across a formula for Shalimar powder in the book “ Le Roman des Guerlain“ by Elisabeth Feydeau. First of all I don't know why they call this a novel because it is really a history book (probably for sales purposes and yes it is very nicely written in a very fluid narrative form). The photography of the hand written formula was taken from the original book at the Guerlain laboratory, and of course the formula must vary substantially from the perfume formula. The mere fact that it does not contain any Vanillin or Vanilla is proof of it. There is Coumarin of course. However the amount of Bergamotte might be indicative of its importance in the composition as a whole. In this formula there is more than one third of bergamotte to the whole composition and one tenth is lemon. (4500 and 1200 respectively in 11973 (grams?) of the total composition)

Gentleman, do you see a great similarity between Emeraude and Shalimar? . In what decade would you say Shalimar was reformulated for the first time? Edit: OK, I have your answer, the question came to mind when I started watching the video. In other words. If you had a vintage shalimar would you go get a bottle of vintage Emeraude extrait?
