Love this smell on me, mysterious and feminine. I re-bought it for myself and accidently got the Toliette version--get the Parfum, it's so much better!

Very soft and powdery, yet spicy, bold and "on fire" all at the same time, Shalimar is a lovely paradox. While my Grandmothers were strictly Chanel and Estee Lauder women, I've smelled this scent...

Best fragrance ever. My mother had this when I was a child. Her mother bought it for her when she was younger. Whenever I was in her bedroom, I would smell this fragrance on her vanity. She...

Still lovely and still the benchmark, original Oriental Vanilla. I actually feel they did a very nice job with the reformulated EdP. It’s a bit sweeter than the old EdP and it doesn’t open quite...

It comes in a bottle with elegant shape, but the scent is way too strong, too concentrated. I had only One gentle spray on my wrist and took a shower the same day and smelt the scent thoughout the...

Although Shalimar is described as a heavy oriental suitable only for evening wear, on me it smells light, and yet sexy at the same time. I have skin that can eat some perfumes which is why I can...

I give this a three out of respect for its history and that it seems to work so well for so many. Now, the review: It's awful on me. Powdery, sickly sweet, old fashioned, cloying, it smells like a...

This is my grandmother's signature scent, and it's always evoked happy memories for me. Deep in my subconscious, this is what perfume is supposed to smell like at its most beautiful. ...

I've heard a few people refer to Shalimar as "old-fashioned." I disagree. I'm in my mid-thirties (which I don't consider a ripe, old age) now and I have worn Shalimar since I was in my early...

Yuck. I used to work at JCPenney or as my friends would call it JC Penoir (more classy) and had the opportunity to try any fragrance I wanted. I learned a lot but one thing in particular is that I...

Have to give thumbs up to Shalimar only because of all the wonderful women in my life who made S their own. Whenever I smell Shalimar I think of my husband's Tant Regine: She is a tall dark...

I had been longing to try this based on the reviews on MUA. I received a sample, and almost immediately became intoxicated with this fragrance. At first, there is a strong incense and bergamot note...

I have always avoided Shalimar, because it evoked a scented memory from my childhood of my best friend's mom's makeup table. She wore Shalimar, and something just always seemed off-smelling in that...

I've been wearing perfume for most of my life - how did I miss trying Shalimar? I always figured it was "old" smelling since it's been around so long. Well, I was wrong. After the lovely lightness...

Like I've said on other sites, in 1970, I went to Paris, and brought back quite a few bottle of Shalimar. At the time, it came in a large cylinder bottle (encasing) off white with blue antique...
