About

Shalimar Philtre de Parfum opens with a vibrant, almost gourmand burst of lemon and bergamot, softened by a gentle touch of aromatic lavender. The heart unfolds into a luxurious powdery embrace of iris and rose, while the base settles into a comforting, creamy vanilla-balsam accord. It's a beautifully blended journey from bright citrus to a warm, enveloping dry down, retaining the Shalimar DNA but with a modern, softer touch.
