Guerlain 1925 Cologne

Shalimar

Name: Shalimar Cologne
Brand: Guerlain

Guerlain Shalimar is a Cologne launched in 1925. Shalimar opens with Bergamot, Mandarin, Cedar, and Lemon, settles into a heart of Rose, Patchouli, Jasmine, and Iris, and dries down to a base of Peru Balsam, Vanilla, Sandalwood, and Opoponax. Guerlain's Shalimar carries a Favourite verdict, a vanilla-led wear.

This is Shalimar for the modern punter; less of the classic heft, more of the sparkling, wearable magic. Despite being 'just' a cologne, it punches above its weight in presence and longevity. A must-try even if the EDP wasn't for you.

Its moderate sillage and surprising longevity for an EDC make it versatile, though perhaps a bit too alluring for a conservative office. The rich amber and leather accords lend themselves perfectly to date nights and formal events, while its comforting warmth makes it a lovely casual choice.

About

Opens with a lively burst of bergamot and lemon, quickly settling into an elegant heart of powdery iris and subtle rose with a hint of earthy patchouli. The drydown reveals a rich tapestry of smooth vanilla, balsamic resins, smoky leather, and a whisper of civet, creating a creamy, mysterious warmth that lingers beautifully on the skin.
