This is indeed the perfect oriental! I get lemon, vanilla, and yes, incense. I knew I smelled more than lemon and vanilla but I wasn't sure what it was until I read the review below. It's...

I would give this a 3 1/2 rating if I could. Yes, there is lemon as everyone here has said but this is not really that sparklingly fresh to me and the lemon does abate somewhat. It's definitely a...

Initially, it's a zingy lemon-peel blast, engulfing me in eucalyptus, sherbert and bright citrus. There is a watermark of the original shalimar there, but it has been brightened up to be youthful,...

I tried this several times before deciding I really do like it. It's a soft, fresh citrus-sweet-vanilla scent that is wonderful for summer. The initial spritz is very fresh, bright and clean -...

Shalimar Light is supposed to be a lighter version of Guerlain's Shalimar. I cannot wear regular Shalimar, but do enjoy Shalimar Light very much. The notes in Shalimar Light are high tech...

bought it cause I'm a Shalimar fan, but only use the original for special occasions and for evening wear. This is a lighter version with a lemon opening, dry-down is powdery like the original one....

I have the Shalimar parfum and I never wear it. The bottle makes me happy, but the scent doesn't attract me. This lighter version is very very different from the parfum. I think I could be...

I don't care what anyone says, Guerlain is it. Ok, Serge, Lorenzo, SMN, Keiko and my other buddies deserve props...but Shalimar Light is oriental perfection. Unlike the original, it's pefect for...

Why have I overlooked this fragrance for so long? I want to love Shalimar but something in the original version is off to me. This lighter version is everything I love about the original Shalimar...

I am not a fan of the original Shalimar, but I thought I'd give this a try. The first time I wore it I loved it. The lemony top notes were fresh and zingy. With subsequent wearings, though, I have...

Wow. Is it possible that I like this MORE than the original Shalimar? Yes, I think so. From the first spritz, it caught my attention with the lemon note. But the dry down is captivating! A...

All right, this going to sound strange, but...the top notes of Shalimar Lite smells exactly like an old Strawberry Shortcake doll I had when I was little - the lemon scented doll with the curly...

A perfect reinterpretation of Shalimar for daytime. More girlish and lacks that super-sexy "moldy" note. The primary scent of this is a fresh lemony vanilla.

I love this perfume, it's much more inviting and graceful than the original. It's fresh/crisp high tech bergamot. while also warm,rich,spicy with vanilla. I like that the 1.7oz can lock and unlock...

I love shalimar, but I can't wear the EDT or even the EDP because of the musky dusty note that does NOT come out on most but does on me (weird chemistry). This is not a light perfume. This is, I...

I bought this at Marshalls for 19.99. Very nice sheer version of Shalimar. My Mom always wore Shalimar and I loved it but it was too strong with a hard earthy bite. I tried this and just loved it....

After reading the description of this scent, I thought I would love it. So much so that I bought a bottle without testing first. Unfortunately it's a huge disappointment for me. I get no vanilla,...
