Shalimar
Descripción
All'inizio molta freschezza grazie al dosaggio importante di agrumi (sopratutto il bergamotto), poi i fiori danno ampiezza ed evasione alla fragranza con le note estremamente avvolgenti e calde di iris, gelsomino e rosa. L'iris introduce una traccia di grande sensualità esaltata dalla celebre vaniglia e insaporita dalle note balsamiche dell'oppoponaco.
Historia
Shalimar è uno dei profumi più celebri della profumeria francese. Sempre attuale, attraversa le epoche senza prendere una ruga ed è l'esempio stesso del profumo orientale. Si racconta che Jacques Guerlain abbia creato questo profumo in omaggio alla leggendaria storia di amore di MUMTAZ con l'imperatore SHAHJAHAN nei giardini di Shalimar nel AGRA. Shalimar significa in sanscrito la casa dell'amore. Pieno di amore per questa donna, l'imperatore, quando ella mori', distrutto dal dolore, decise di costruire una tomba per MUMTAZ . Quattordici anni dopo si ergeva il "TajMahal". Shalimar è il primo profumo che utilizza l'etil-vanillina, una molecola chimica artificiale che evoca con intensità la vaniglia.
Frasco
Disegnato da Raymond Guerlain, cugino di Jacques, il flacone di Shalimar ricorda le fontane zampillanti che ornano i giardini dei palazzi orientali. Il tappo è come un ventaglio di un blu scuro che evoca le tradizioni di questi paesi misteriosi

I recently bought a new bottle and the clerk attempted to stop me lol. He told me I was too young to purchase this scent. He said, wait you will not like this one, let me show you another one. I was confused for a minute!! lmao. I then told him that I purchased it before. He laughed and asked was it for me or for someone else. I told him I liked it and that it was for myself. We then had a laugh because I was not the typical buyer as he said he usually only sold Shalimar during the winter holidays(it was summer) to women who could be my grandmothers. He then let me smell other Guerlain scents. He seemed to actually be knowledgeable about the scents in the store. I really did appreciate his honesty because other clerks would have just let me buy something they knew I would probably not like just to make the sale.

This is one of my favorites. the scent is divine. it goes from smokey to powdery sweet. also the box it came in has a beautiful rendition of a guerlain boutique on it. the tan glittery evening bag with the bow that came with it also is a very welcome flyy addition. I try to not do repeats with fragrances because there are so many to try but this one here is above all that and a staple in my collection.

L’opoponax est une gomme résine, comme la myrrhe. C’est une odeur douce et ambrée, avec également un effet minéral, comme la pierre à fusil. D’autres parfumeurs disent qu’il y a un effet champignon. C’est une matière première qui est plutôt rare dans les parfums. On l’utilise dans les parfums orientaux, mais beaucoup moins que le benjoin, la vanille, la fève tonka ou même l’encens. On en retrouve aussi dans le parfum Opium d’Yves Saint Laurent.

I have been a great fan of Guerlain’s traditional perfumes and Shalimar is among one of the classics. In this fragrance, I feel lemon, bergamot, jasmine, rose, tonka bean, vanilla, iris… The fresh citrus notes lead to a beautiful floral heart. Then the dry down is a warm ‘guerlinade’ base. The concept of the fragrance is historic, beautiful and timeless. Shalimar was inspired by Empress Mumtaz’s favourite garden. The perfume Shalimar’s magic is still strongly captivating and popular today. India has and continues to inspire many great perfumers and creators because of the complex history and for being able to convey ‘exoticism’ even today.
