Guerlain Shalimar Fourreau du Soir is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011. Shalimar Fourreau du Soir opens with Bergamot and Lemon, settles into a heart of Rose and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Iris, Vanilla, Tonka Bean, and Incense. Guerlain's Shalimar Fourreau du Soir carries an Acquired verdict, a vanilla-led wear.

There's a lot of debate on whether this is truly different from the original Shalimar EDP, but one thing's for sure: it's a stunning, alluring oriental that many prefer for its smoother, less animalic take on a classic. If you love Shalimar, you'll love this, even if it's 'the same'.

About

Shalimar Fourreau du Soir opens with a bright, zesty burst of bergamot and lemon, quickly mellowing into a romantic heart of rose and jasmine. The real magic happens in the drydown, where a rich amber and vanilla embrace takes hold, deepened by smoky incense, powdery iris, and the sweet, balsamic warmth of opoponax and tonka bean. It's an exquisitely blended, seamless scent journey.
