    This is the epitome of a beautifully crafted fine french perfume. When i wear it it feels like i am spraying on fine 24 carat diamonds mined from an exotic location far away mine in Africa...

    I have changed my mind about this perfume so many times, but I think I have finally made a decision. At first, I thought it smelled like men's cologne. The smell of men's cologne was so sharp and...

    The most wonderful and feminine scent ever invented. Shalimar is an original and has never been beaten in the fragrance category. Sexy, warm, and unforgettable.

    I can't help, it's love, not lust or a crush, but Love!! This has been around since the dark ages and it's still such a classic. Anyone that just smells this out of the bottle and moves on is...

    I like Shalimar, it's a classic to me. The first spray of it (EDT) smells a little musky and sharp, but it settles onto my skin to be warm and very elegant. I personally think it's a very classy...

    I tried the EDT of this recently, and was pleasantly surprised to find that I really liked it. This is a very feminine but spicy fragrance. It lasted quite a long time. This is a true classic in...

    I was fortunate to receive this in a recent swap. I'm embarrassed to admit that I had never actually sampled it before. This one is a classic for a reason. Based on the many descriptions of this...

    You know, Shalimar may not be "my fragrance", but it is a classic that has withstood the test of time. I can respect that it suits many women, along the same lines as Obsession, Angel, Boucheron,...

    Because of the hype of prestige and elegance of this product I was excited to wear it...well to hell with hype because it smells very cheap. Like one of those scents you buy for two dollars. It...

    I have tried several times to love Shalimar. It smells so lovely on the tester, and it even smells lovely on me at first - spicy vanilla with a smoky background. It makes me think of chai tea. ...

    Shalimar is THE first and definitive Oriental frag, having blazed onto the perfume scene in the 1920s (along with Chanel No 5, the first aldehyde). Like C No 5, Shalimar remains distinctive and...

    I love Shalimar. I had to delete my old review, as it really didn't express how I feel about it. On me, Shalimar starts off medicinal and bracing. Some reviewers find citrus, but it doesn't...

    Like Vol de Nuit, this is a perfume I can only wear in pure parfum form. EdT and EdP are close to revolting on me, and put me off Shalimar for years. I am a Guerlain devotee, however, and I kept...

    This review is for the EDT. As much as I wanted to like this fragrance (it's such a classic), Shalimar did not go well with my skin chemistry. To me, the fragrance smelled like soap and man's...

    I wish more people appreciated this classic. My love-affair began in the 1980s. My best friend's mother wore it and she was beautiful, so I associated it with her. In those years, I was drawn to...

    I just love it, so comfortable bit sweet, smokey and very powdery. The lemon top note is inressistible, not in an ordinary way. Really a very special fragrance, I just can´t see why someone would...

    In many cases Shalimar was described as lemony vanilla cake. But I don't percieve it that way - I find it smokey (probably because of incense that my nose find dominant in here) and just a bit...
