Eau de Shalimar 2009

Guerlain Eau de Shalimar 2009 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2009. Eau de Shalimar 2009 opens with Bergamot, Lime, and Orange, settles into a heart of Rose and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Amber and Vanilla. Guerlain's Eau de Shalimar 2009 carries an Acquired verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This flanker of Guerlain's classic Shalimar is a polarising affair. Some adore its sweet, zesty take on the original, while others find it too weak, too sharp, or too far removed from the Shalimar they know and love.

Its lighter projection and fresh, sweet profile make it suitable for casual wear and dates, but its tendency towards weakness means it wouldn't overpower an office setting. It's too informal for most serious formal events, and certainly not built for sport.

About

A delightful, albeit fleeting, journey. It opens with a bold, tart burst of bergamot, lime, and orange, settling swiftly into a fluffy, angora-sweater vanilla with delicate hints of rose and jasmine. The citrus remains, evolving into a sweet, almost gourmand key lime pie or lemon meringue character, underpinned by a soft, luxurious amber and a whisper of powdery warmth.
