No.545 Shalimar

Name: No.545 Shalimar Eau de Parfum
Brand: Eden Perfumes

Eden Perfumes No.545 Shalimar is an Eau de Parfum. No.545 Shalimar opens with Bergamot and Lemon, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, and Iris, and dries down to a base of Vanilla, Tonka Bean, and Incense. Eden Perfumes's No.545 Shalimar carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

No.545 chases Guerlain's landmark Shalimar, keeping the sharp citrus-into-vanilla arc that defines the original, but the incense-vanilla base reads simpler and less resinous than the 1925 classic's famously complex oriental dry-down.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Shalimar® Inspired No.545 takes on one of perfumery's true icons, Guerlain's 1925 original, a fragrance still considered a benchmark of the oriental genre a century later. Eden's version opens with the same sharp, almost medicinal citrus burst of bergamot and lemon that gives Shalimar its distinctive, slightly unexpected start. As it develops, an iris, jasmine and rose heart provides a soft floral bridge into the base, mirroring the powdery elegance of the original. The dry-down is where Shalimar's reputation is built, and No.545 makes a solid attempt with vanilla, incense and tonka bean forming a warm, sweet, resinous finish. What's missing is the sheer density and animalic complexity of the original's opoponax-and-civet-laced base, which gives real Shalimar its unmistakable smoky, leathery depth over many hours. Eden's take is comparatively cleaner and sweeter, a more approachable, modern-feeling vanilla-incense composition rather than the layered, slightly dirty oriental of the 1925 formula. It's a solid, wearable homage to a genre-defining classic for special occasions and cold-weather evenings, capturing the vanilla-citrus signature well, even if it can't replicate the full baroque richness of the source.
