Shalimar Souffle de Parfum

by Thierry Wasser

Guerlain Shalimar Souffle de Parfum is a Parfum launched in 2014, created by Thierry Wasser. Shalimar Souffle de Parfum opens with Bergamot, Lemon, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Orange Blossom, and dries down to a base of Musk and Vanilla. Guerlain's Shalimar Souffle de Parfum carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This isn't your mum's Shalimar; it's a modern, airy take that delights many with its lemon-vanilla souffle, even if some purists sniff at its lack of traditional 'Shalimar DNA.' Love it or find it fleeting and 'just okay,' it's a divisive but popular flanker.

About

Shalimar Souffle de Parfum opens with a vibrant, zesty burst of lemon, mandarin, and bergamot, giving a sparkling, fresh citrus punch. This bright beginning mellows into a heart of delicate white florals, where jasmine and orange blossom intertwine with a soft, clean musk. The dry-down is a comforting, pillowy blend of creamy vanilla and a persistent, airy musk, creating a sophisticated 'lemon soufflé' effect that's both sweet and elegant without being gourmand.
