Shalimar - the scent of Istanbul. Unforgettable, enticing, and mind-blowing. ★

I have run out of Shalimar Initial and can't find it anywhere, they say it has been discontinued. Well, that's a shame. I bought this classic as a replacement. It is truly something. At first, it has a very sharp scent, I even thought it smelled like my grandfather's triple cologne. But after 30-40 minutes, it unfolds into an incredible aroma. I can't understand what notes it has, it is both fresh, sweet, and powdery, a very deep and iridescent scent. I just walk around and enjoy it. I asked my son, he said it has a very soft and warm smell, very pleasant. I can feel it on myself when I start moving, otherwise, I just blend in with it. Simply incomparable, very long-lasting. But I apply it 40 minutes before going out so that the initial notes settle a bit and it fully opens up. Special thanks to Makeup for the quick processing and delivery.

I'm sorry, but these perfumes are not for me. I bought them after reading reviews. They smell like they're from my grandmother's trunk. I am disappointed.

By the way, this applies not only to Shalimar! Right now I am wearing Samsara and I am simply in a state of perfume ecstasy!!! I love this madness!!! I simply adore it!!! And age doesn't matter here! I have loved them for a long time and firmly! And it seems that these brands - Guerlain, Shalimar - have made me a perfume maniac! Thank you to the store for the opportunity to own these Perfume Masterpieces!))

I have read the reviews, and personally, I don't understand how such masterpieces can receive bad reviews?!?! Chanel, Guerlain - these are classics that one needs to grow into or have good taste! It is a masterpiece! There are no tires or anything like that! It is a divine elixir in a bottle!!! As for the toilet water, it didn't really please me.... But I am to blame myself, I know that the toilet version is not for me... But the perfume water - it's superb! Gentleness! Femininity! And even those people who usually suffocate from my perfumes appreciated this one! Divine Elixir!

I am currently on my honeymoon with Shalimar. Head over heels in love... This fragrance is like a rich pyramid, and the way it smells on the skin is incomparable - sweet, delicate, and very luxurious.
It's not a girly scent. It embodies femininity to its deepest depths. You can feel the elegance and ode to mature femininity in it. I adore it...replyDid this review help you? - Translated review★★★★★
Once in the reviews, I came across a phrase about it, saying that it's like a lover - you enjoy it alone, but you won't take it out in public...
I bought the sample in May. I tried to sniff it a few times - not my thing, that's it! Just one smell of rubber, that's all. I put it aside and forgot about it. And now I came across it again, in November, when it got colder outside - and I didn't recognize it. Where did the burnt tires go? I don't feel any rubber at all. It's like lemon in syrup, like mulled wine, I don't know, a cozy scarf that you want to wrap yourself in... From this, I conclude that (for me) it's a winter fragrance.replyDid this review help you? - Purchase confirmedTranslated review★★★★★
I am just delighted and fully agree that this perfume is a masterpiece. There is nothing more to add to the already positive reviews, but one simply needs to have refined taste in order to love and enjoy this multifaceted aroma!

Bergamot, patchouli - a handful! This fragrance is highly therapeutic and perfect for cold weather. It possesses a rich and intense aroma that is sure to captivate retro fragrance enthusiasts.

I believe that perfume has no age. There are stereotypes, associations, and impressions. And Shalimar is a masterpiece that has been reinterpreted and filtered for almost 100 years now. Infinitely beautiful, contradictory, and prestigious.
I recommend starting with the Eau de Parfum version, and if it seems too heavy, move towards younger soufflés and illuminators. Intense versions are sweeter, Initials are more powdery. Colognes and EDTs are more vibrant. If it doesn't click right away, it simply means that the time hasn't come yet.replyDid this review help you? - Translated review

And thank you for the little gift, it's always nice when something is added to a purchase. Also, regarding the perfume, it reminds me of something, certain notes, but I can't remember what.

I am thrilled. I have been contemplating whether to purchase this product or not, as there are mixed reviews, some loving it while others complain about a strong rubber smell that is unbearable. Personally, I am a fan of it. The fragrance is perfect for autumn - sensual and cozy. As for the rubber smell, I wouldn't have even noticed it if I hadn't read about it. Of course, if you actively search for it, you might find something similar.

The makeup is always top-notch! At first, when I received the package, I was extremely dissatisfied with its longevity and the scent itself, and I immediately wanted to sell it... BUT I am among those who believe in giving fragrances a chance. And after a month, Shalimar transformed! The vanilla, bergamot, and leather combination is unmatched!

Great scent, thank you so much! The package arrived very quickly. I first discovered this fragrance when my acquaintance bought it, and I wanted to buy it for myself.

Horrible. Absolutely nothing in common with the description. I wonder who writes positive reviews????
The scent is like rubber slightly doused in frankincense. And that's it!!!
A complete waste. And this is not the first time I've received poor quality perfume.replyDid this review help you? - Purchase confirmedTranslated review★★★★★

I became familiar with these legendary perfumes through online reading and listening. And now I have decided to try them myself. I really liked the scent, as I immediately noticed the aroma of Indian spices and black pepper, which I really enjoy. This perfume is timeless. It is rich, enveloping, and magical, just like the story it is dedicated to. According to legend, it was in the Shalimar Gardens in India that the characters of "One Thousand and One Nights" fell in love: Princess Mumtaz Mahal and Shah Jahan. It is a magical and captivating journey into the unknown world. Thank you, Makeup.

I purchased this product in December 2020. It is absolutely not long-lasting! I had the same experience with Guerlain L'Heure Bleue (I bought it here around 2018). In all fairness, I must admit that the same fate befell me when I bought Chanel No. 5 (not here). I bought a tester and, honestly, I reassured myself that the lack of longevity was due to purchasing a tester. At that time, I couldn't think of anything else. But now, as a longtime fan, admirer, and most importantly, a longtime consumer of French perfumes (since the late 80s), I can say that suddenly many previously familiar and well-studied fragrances have become less long-lasting. I regularly come across negative reviews. I see myself and my emotions reflected in other reviews regarding the lack of longevity. I think it's not the store's fault, but rather changes in the fragrance formulas. But the fact remains. So... I've put Shalimar in a corner for now – maybe a miracle will happen, and it will improve???? For now, that's all I can hope for. My rating is based on the lack of longevity!

I received this wonderful fragrance yesterday! Makeup, thank you for the original at an affordable price! According to the batch code, it was made in September 2019.
My first impression of the scent and the bottle is that it smells expensive and sophisticated. It somehow reminds me of the fragrant atmosphere in duty-free shops, a mix of everything in one bottle.
I applied it to the bend of my arm and, like many others, initially smelled rubber (which lasted for about 20 minutes). Gradually, the scent started to unfold with spices and a pronounced incense note. By the end of the day, only a powdery scent remained.
It is very long-lasting.
I was afraid it would be overwhelming in the +33 degree weather outside, but it turned out to be the opposite. The fragrance envelops you.
Shalimar needs to be understood. It's not for the faint-hearted, but for the especially gifted. It won't suit everyone.
If you're ordering based on reviews, don't take risks. You need to test it out, and not just once.replyDid this review help you? - Translated review★★★★★
I will add to my review. The fragrance is reminiscent of the Art Deco style of the 1920s. It evokes the image of a lady in an evening gown from the 1920s, smoking a long cigarette in a billiard room. That's what this fragrance is all about!

First, the rubber, then vibrant Indian curry spices, a jasmine flower, patchouli, and... frankincense.

Love at first breath! After reading various reviews, I was prepared for anything! Including the rubber part. But based on the positive ones, I understood for sure, it's mine! Girls with similar preferences give very articulate descriptions. I received it before leaving for work in the night. Honestly, I bathed in it after taking a shower. While preparing coffee, before leaving the house, the scent revealed all its aspects in 20 minutes. Well, the ones that not everyone likes... And after that, it was pure delight! I'm driving and enjoying it! And then the confusion of those around me began!

This fragrance is very versatile and extraordinary. If we were to call it retro, it would be a non-standard retro that surpassed its time.
At first, it is indeed sharp - the citrus notes are too prickly and the cedar is strong. But if you wait a little while, it unfolds with warm powdery notes - patchouli, vanilla, rose, sandalwood... all of these blend together in a scent that reminds me of my mother's deep childhood memories, like her lipstick. However, vetiver, leather, and frankincense prevent it from completely drowning in this powdery sweetness.
This is how it settles on me. Cozy, spicy, and delicate. It envelops me and keeps me captivated for a very long time, although it is already close to the skin.
It is impossible to choose this perfume based on its notes or reviews. It is worth getting to know personally.replyDid this review help you? - Purchase confirmedTranslated review★★★★★
Dear, enveloping, iridescent, multifaceted scent....
I could hear so many things in it - incense, citrus, leather, tires... and the most surprising thing - a cinnamon bun )))replyDid this review help you? - Purchase confirmedTranslated review★★★★★
Love at first sniff! I can't hear any tires. This fragrance is multifaceted, iridescent, enveloping, sensuous, smoky, and leathery - it's all about it. My golden treasure. :)
A scent for a confident woman. It's very long-lasting - you can still smell it on the skin even after 24 hours! It stays on clothes until they are washed.
Shalimar doesn't get along with everyone, so it's definitely necessary to test it before buying!replyDid this review help you? - Translated review★★★★★
A very feminine perfume. It has a rich and surprisingly modern scent, considering its age. Citrus and vanilla are the most prominent notes. The rest is deeply hidden and only occasionally reveals itself in the trail. Overall, it is a masterpiece for all times. A must-buy for collectors.

Upon first spraying, there is a strong smell of leather or rubber, which after about an hour starts to reveal a gentle and pleasant fragrance. It lasts long.

I bought this fragrance without testing it first because I really wanted to own this masterpiece. The scent is very multifaceted and complex. It doesn't smell bad or repel me in any way. This fragrance is simply for true perfume connoisseurs and self-assured women. If you prefer something light in terms of fragrance, then this is not for you!

Now I also have Shalimar Eau de Parfum. Compared to the toilet water version, this one is more intense, assertive, if you will. It takes longer to unfold and holds the scent better. The final note is not very pleasant, which is not the case with the toilet water. The toilet water is still softer and rounder, more pleasant for me. I'm thinking, what could be causing such a finish? What ingredient could it be?
replyDid this review help you? - Translated review★★★★★
Enchanting and expensive fragrance. The bottom note didn't impress me much, but when they unfold, it's pure delight! This is definitely not for those who appreciate the scent of watermelon rind, etc. This is Shalimar, baby!

I randomly chose this fragrance with incense in the base solely based on reviews, and I didn't regret it. The decisive moment was the promotional video of Guerlain's Shalimar Legend with Zemira's music - it was the climax of chills on the skin.
Now let's talk about the fragrance itself - it's more of a philosophy and art rather than just a scent. It's very complex in its composition, elitist, and far from ordinary. At the top, there's more lemon than bergamot, the middle is powdery, and the base resonates with an animal ensemble - leather, musk, and civet. Frankincense and vanilla are quite subtle. It may not appeal to everyone, so it's worth testing. I give it 5 stars for its special multidimensionality. It's a comforting scent because it makes you feel confident.replyDid this review help you? - Purchase confirmedTranslated review★★★★★
I have always wanted to try the legendary Shalimar perfume. I love vintage fragrances, so reviews that describe it as "old-fashioned" or "for older women" actually intrigue me. However, I was deeply disappointed when I finally applied it. My first thought was, "Is this the famous Shalimar?!" It was nothing like what I had imagined. Firstly, it is not at all vintage. The initial notes are overpowering, and the subsequent stages leave me indifferent. It's a mixed feeling - neither good nor bad. I will continue to use it, but most likely, I won't repurchase it.

In October, I bought a 50ml bottle and today I bought another one because I realized that I would run out quickly, and I can't live without it anymore. It is amazing, long-lasting, and luxurious. I have bought several perfumes on this website, and I don't know what they write about longevity and counterfeit products, but I am satisfied with the website's service, delivery, and of course, the perfumes. I am your customer.

Thank you Makeup for my Shalimar, I checked everything, all the numbers match, I also know the date, THANK YOU VERY MUCH! Now, regarding the perfume itself, I chose it solely based on reviews without testing it, because everyone says that every woman should get acquainted with it, so I did, just half an hour ago. It has a pleasant scent of incense, cedar, and leather, very long-lasting. I am satisfied with this fragrance!

I don't have any rubber on me, but from the very first notes, IT is beautiful. I was expecting more trash based on the reviews, but it is even too feminine for me. In terms of direction, it is similar to Juliette Has A Gun Citizen Queen.

When I first encountered this fragrance, I was horrified by its heavy and sickly-sweet taste. Six months later, I decided to give it another chance, and now I can't get enough of it. The way it unfolds and plays on the skin is amazing. My child even says I smell like oranges now.

For me, Shalimar is spicy, warm, even hot, mature, passionate, mature, and solid. It revealed itself to me with spices, then with some vintage Soviet perfumes from my mother, and only then with powder - the real Soviet one. You have to understand it! I'm 35. I think I wouldn't have understood it earlier. Thanks to Makeup for the fast delivery and reliable packaging!

A masterpiece, indescribable, a scent not for everyone, a timeless history, and so on. All true! But for those who haven't experienced the aroma yet are trying to imagine how it could sound, I'll say without unnecessary epithets - it smells like compact powder.

I ordered Shalimar from this website for the second time, and this time they sent me a counterfeit product. Before this unfortunate experience, I was skeptical about the comments regarding the lack of originality of the products on the website, but now I understand that it is indeed possible. It's incredibly disappointing. I really liked the prices for makeup and the quality of service, but I don't want to take any more risks.
