Shalimar Souffle Intense

by Thierry Wasser

Guerlain Shalimar Souffle Intense is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Thierry Wasser. Shalimar Souffle Intense opens with Bergamot, Lemon, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Musk, Benzoin, and Vanilla. Guerlain's Shalimar Souffle Intense carries an Acquired verdict, a citrus-led wear.

A modern masterpiece for vanilla and citrus lovers, Souffle Intense is rightly adored for its deep, sensual aroma, though some find it a touch masculine. The hype is real; it's a huge shame Guerlain binned this one.

About

Opens with a zesty burst of bergamot, lemon, and mandarin, quickly softening into a lush heart of orange blossom and jasmine. The real magic unfolds as it dries down to a rich, creamy base of benzoin and vanilla, wrapped in a subtle, airy musk. It’s a sophisticated gourmand with an oriental twist, never cloying, always enchanting.
