Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Shalimar Millésime Tonka EDP
A modern, sophisticated Shalimar flanker, Tonka proves to be a crowd-pleaser, delivering a smooth, slightly boozy take on the classic. Guerlain's decision to make this a limited edition has only fuelled its legendary status and desirability. Expect to pay a pretty penny on the secondary market.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Milky Almond EDT
Milky Almond is a universally adored, comforting scent. It's an easy win, perfect for those who want to smell subtly sweet and approachable without any fuss.

Season and Occasion Fit

Shalimar Millésime Tonka

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its rich, deep, and long-lasting nature makes it excellent for dates or formal events where you want to make an impression. While it's sophisticated enough for some office environments, its strong projection means it's best applied lightly to avoid overwhelming colleagues. It's generally too heavy for casual daytime wear.
