Jacques Guerlain

"Shalimar Eau de Toilette is a classic feminine amber fragrance built around a luminous bergamot opening and a soft floral heart. Iris, rose, and jasmine give the composition an elegant, powdery floral character. Vanilla and tonka bean form the warm, sweet base that defines its sensual signature. The Eau de Toilette format presents the Shalimar theme with a lighter and more airy feel than the richer parfum expression. Created by Jacques Guerlain, it is one of the enduring cornerstones of the house. Its romantic, warm, and sophisticated character has kept it relevant across generations."
