I have run out of Shalimar Initial and can't find it anywhere, they say it has been discontinued. Well, that's a shame. I bought this classic as a replacement. It is truly something. At first, it has a very sharp scent, I even thought it smelled like my grandfather's triple cologne. But after 30-40 minutes, it unfolds into an incredible aroma. I can't understand what notes it has, it is both fresh, sweet, and powdery, a very deep and iridescent scent. I just walk around and enjoy it. I asked my son, he said it has a very soft and warm smell, very pleasant. I can feel it on myself when I start moving, otherwise, I just blend in with it. Simply incomparable, very long-lasting. But I apply it 40 minutes before going out so that the initial notes settle a bit and it fully opens up. Special thanks to Makeup for the quick processing and delivery.
I'm sorry, but these perfumes are not for me. I bought them after reading reviews. They smell like they're from my grandmother's trunk. I am disappointed.
By the way, this applies not only to Shalimar! Right now I am wearing Samsara and I am simply in a state of perfume ecstasy!!! I love this madness!!! I simply adore it!!! And age doesn't matter here! I have loved them for a long time and firmly! And it seems that these brands - Guerlain, Shalimar - have made me a perfume maniac! Thank you to the store for the opportunity to own these Perfume Masterpieces!))
I have read the reviews, and personally, I don't understand how such masterpieces can receive bad reviews?!?! Chanel, Guerlain - these are classics that one needs to grow into or have good taste! It is a masterpiece! There are no tires or anything like that! It is a divine elixir in a bottle!!! As for the toilet water, it didn't really please me.... But I am to blame myself, I know that the toilet version is not for me... But the perfume water - it's superb! Gentleness! Femininity! And even those people who usually suffocate from my perfumes appreciated this one! Divine Elixir!
I am currently on my honeymoon with Shalimar. Head over heels in love... This fragrance is like a rich pyramid, and the way it smells on the skin is incomparable - sweet, delicate, and very luxurious.
It's not a girly scent. It embodies femininity to its deepest depths. You can feel the elegance and ode to mature femininity in it. I adore it...
Once in the reviews, I came across a phrase about it, saying that it's like a lover - you enjoy it alone, but you won't take it out in public...
I bought the sample in May. I tried to sniff it a few times - not my thing, that's it! Just one smell of rubber, that's all. I put it aside and forgot about it. And now I came across it again, in November, when it got colder outside - and I didn't recognize it. Where did the burnt tires go? I don't feel any rubber at all. It's like lemon in syrup, like mulled wine, I don't know, a cozy scarf that you want to wrap yourself in... From this, I conclude that (for me) it's a winter fragrance.
I am just delighted and fully agree that this perfume is a masterpiece. There is nothing more to add to the already positive reviews, but one simply needs to have refined taste in order to love and enjoy this multifaceted aroma!
I bought it in January or February, I think. At first, for the first half an hour to an hour, there was a rubber smell, but I let it settle and now there are no more of those notes at all. It unfolds magically, it's a bit intoxicating.
The scent, in my opinion, is not everyday, rather the opposite - it suits a certain internal state, I feel it differently depending on my mood, from some kind of magic to stuffiness. Over time, I just tuned in to it, so now it only brings me joy.
Shalimar convinced me that there is a reason why classics become classics - you just need to taste and apply them skillfully.
Someone once gave me a sample of this perfume from France and ever since then, I've been searching for this scent and nothing else compares. Recently, while browsing on a website, I discovered that there are two versions of it! However, there is a difference: one is a perfume, the other is a water with a different scent pyramid. I specifically ordered the water because I was told that only those were the ones! But yesterday, I received the perfume "Shalimar" and oh my god!!! This is it!!! It's impossible to convey the joy and excitement it brings! Of course, I couldn't resist and immediately applied it... but there was no aroma, no scent... it faded away quickly. I tried the water and it smelled, but this one didn't... I was extremely disappointed, but then I checked the code and it was fine. So I sprayed it again and it still smells to this day!!! Guys, this is a fantastic scent!!! Thank you to the store for allowing me to make mistakes but not lose hope in finding my dream scent!!!! This perfume is fantastic!!! I sprayed it around three o'clock yesterday and the scent is still there - fantastic!!! Long-lasting - superb! Thank you!
Oh, I'm not sure if I'll be able to get along with it. Besides the smell of burning insulation, I don't feel anything. Maybe I need to wait. Makeup, thank you for the delivery. We managed to receive it just in time for the holiday.
Having fallen in love with the EDT, I couldn't resist getting the EDP. Now, I'm sitting here, comparing my impressions. They are similar, like twin brothers that are hard to tell apart but impossible to mix up. From my perspective, the EDP offers a more complete and clearly structured unfolding of the fragrance pyramid. It starts with a strong citrus accord, with a slightly bitter peel... Then they become sweeter... Do they ripen?... :) Afterwards, flowers are added to the citrus notes. Many flowers. But jasmine stands out the most, and probably iris too, as there is a good amount of powder present as well. After a considerable amount of time, the flowers are replaced by a warm, dry sandalwood in a vanilla cloud. But somewhere very close to it, the citrus notes still linger. That's my personal journey through this magical garden. I suspect it's far from complete. A big thank you to the store for the excellent service.
Beloved and adored fragrance by me. It is complex, sharp, and initially unclear, but it unfolds into a powdery scent that lasts all day. Pure delight and my love! I have purchased it from Makeup multiple times, and as always, they never disappoint. Also, grateful for the complimentary sample as a gift.
I have been dreaming about this product. My daughter bought it from you as a gift for March 8th. I am excited to try it. Today, however, it got lost in the cloud. It has those notes that people like to call "rubbery," but they don't scare me. I am a lover of chypre fragrances in life. What came afterwards was pure delight. The scent is wonderful. I will slowly wear it out.
No flanker could overshadow this masterpiece! The longevity, the play of notes, and the depth of the perfume are astounding. It is a joy to understand it.
The makeup is always top-notch! At first, when I received the package, I was extremely dissatisfied with its longevity and the scent itself, and I immediately wanted to sell it... BUT I am among those who believe in giving fragrances a chance. And after a month, Shalimar transformed! The vanilla, bergamot, and leather combination is unmatched!
Finally, my joy has arrived! The fragrance is truly enchanting. I allowed it to settle in. However, I was disappointed by the defect on the bottle, which is unusual for Guerlain.
Elena, Zaporizhia, and OLNA, thank you for recommending me to choose this particular perfume. I bought a 90ml tester, and the scent is absolutely amazing. At first, there is a hint of tires and rubber, but then... it turns into an incredible aroma. I received it today and couldn't resist trying it. Just one spray on my wrist, and I'm enjoying it from morning till evening. I can't even imagine how great it will be once it settles. Thank you, Meika, for the gift. It's very pleasing. I am your forever fan.
Citrus-vanilla, balsamic, intoxicating in an Eastern way, yet daring fragrance. For some, it may seem harsh, but the sharp acidity wonderfully unfolds on the skin with incense, vanilla, and spices, making you feel like a true woman. However, when applied in the evening on the wrist, there is no hint of it in the morning. Maybe it needs a week to rest...
My collection has been enriched with another masterpiece - Guerlain Shalimar. It opens with notes of grapefruit, bergamot, and frankincense. Then a dusty rose takes the stage and frankincense resounds once again. The heart of the fragrance is musk, frankincense, leather, and woody notes. The associations are a hot southern night, a gentle warm sea breeze, and a hookah with eastern sweets on a silver tray with exquisite engravings. This is a prestigious fragrance - not rushed, long-lasting, deep, and alluring.
I bought it on a whim. I really wanted to experience the classics. My first impression - I've heard this scent somewhere before... it brought back pleasant childhood memories. The initial notes reminded me of a sharp rubber smell... and it's true, just as others have written. Then it disappeared and spices, the scent of delicate cream, chocolate, and sandalwood appeared. It smells like "velvet" to me. It's a wonderful evening fragrance. For sophisticated ladies.
I received this wonderful fragrance yesterday! Makeup, thank you for the original at an affordable price! According to the batch code, it was made in September 2019.
My first impression of the scent and the bottle is that it smells expensive and sophisticated. It somehow reminds me of the fragrant atmosphere in duty-free shops, a mix of everything in one bottle.
I applied it to the bend of my arm and, like many others, initially smelled rubber (which lasted for about 20 minutes). Gradually, the scent started to unfold with spices and a pronounced incense note. By the end of the day, only a powdery scent remained.
It is very long-lasting.
I was afraid it would be overwhelming in the +33 degree weather outside, but it turned out to be the opposite. The fragrance envelops you.
Shalimar needs to be understood. It's not for the faint-hearted, but for the especially gifted. It won't suit everyone.
If you're ordering based on reviews, don't take risks. You need to test it out, and not just once.
I will add to my review. The fragrance is reminiscent of the Art Deco style of the 1920s. It evokes the image of a lady in an evening gown from the 1920s, smoking a long cigarette in a billiard room. That's what this fragrance is all about!
Love at first breath! After reading various reviews, I was prepared for anything! Including the rubber part. But based on the positive ones, I understood for sure, it's mine! Girls with similar preferences give very articulate descriptions. I received it before leaving for work in the night. Honestly, I bathed in it after taking a shower. While preparing coffee, before leaving the house, the scent revealed all its aspects in 20 minutes. Well, the ones that not everyone likes... And after that, it was pure delight! I'm driving and enjoying it! And then the confusion of those around me began!
Shalimar is a powdery fragrance. It is very long-lasting, with just two sprays lasting the whole day. The scent starts off heavy but then becomes very elegant and lingering. This fragrance is perfect for those who love the smell of cosmetics and powder. In my opinion, Shalimar is a sweet and very unique fragrance. I agree with those who suggest trying it, as it is not immediately recognizable. This scent is definitely reminiscent of expensive perfumes.
Shalimar is love ❤️! The first bottle was given to me...and when I applied it on myself, I decided it wasn't for me, too "heavy". But then...Oh! how they unfolded!!! They sound delightful both in the summer heat and in freezing weather! And I never stop receiving admiring questions from women: what perfume is this? Oh, what a scent!
Thank you, makeup, for the excellent and fast work!
These perfumes are incredibly cool! Firstly, they are the eternal classics of perfumery! They were created by Jacques Guerlain, and in the Persian language, Shalimar means "the master of gardens." And it's no wonder - it smells of sweet oriental vanilla mixed with spices and roses. Of course, I recommend testing them before buying if possible, as oriental scents are not for everyone.
I cannot understand where all the enthusiastic reviews are coming from. The perfume is very heavy, if it weren't labeled as women's, I would have thought it was for men! It smells like burnt rubber. It does fade away over time, but the scent cannot be compared to Chanel No. 5 or any other classic fragrance. There are no feminine notes. I highly recommend testing it.
Great scent. Unexpected and luxurious. Unparalleled. This is definitely for me. Bought it based on reviews, 50 ml and no regrets. Now it's my go-to fragrance. It made my birthday! Thank you makeup for the fast delivery and birthday discount.
I received it. Thank you for the makeup!
I have been using it for 2 weeks now, but I just can't get used to the overpowering vanilla scent. I don't feel anything else in it... It's been around for almost 100 years, so what demand can there be?)))
The fragrance sits close to my skin and doesn't have a long-lasting effect... It's not a long-lasting perfume at all.
But I am always excited to add a new perfume to my fragrance collection!
Maybe it will reveal its true potential to me during warmer seasons, and I will be extremely satisfied with it?) I will wait...
For some reason, the day before my birthday, I become a perfume maniac! I want a bunch of different fragrances and I can't make up my mind. This time, I chose a vintage and legendary fragrance, Shalimar. I had never come across it before, but a miracle happened. It turned out to be absolutely mine, as if we only separated yesterday! I don't understand why, but as soon as I opened the package, I almost lost consciousness from the pleasure that engulfed me. Opium used to be my favorite, but now it had to make room on the pedestal. Classics are much better than any new releases. I wonder how the scents unfold on different girls! I don't get any citrus notes on myself, and thank God, Shalimar is difficult to break down into "notes," it's a rhapsody that you want to listen to endlessly.
But of course, I took a risk, these things need to be tested. Luckily! The longevity is excellent, I can still feel it on my wrist from morning till night. I have no doubt about its originality.
Thank you Makeup for the huge selection of fashionable and rare, classic and brand new perfumes. And overall, for the luxurious range and service.
This product is a masterpiece, without a doubt! It's not for everyone, you need to grow into it, accept it, and love it. It's warm, passionate, enveloping, powdery; it's so sunny and multifaceted, the vanilla and incense simply enchant. Hour after hour, you want to inhale it more and more! It's luxury! Definitely fit for a queen!
Amazing scent! It sounds different on everyone. At first, it's sharp and slightly bitter, but then it becomes incredibly multifaceted. Powdery, sweet, and interesting. My husband says that thanks to this perfume, you can recognize me in a huge crowd with your eyes closed. But the scent feels more suitable for winter, in my opinion. I can't imagine wearing it in the summer. The longevity is average. The makeup service is always excellent.
I randomly chose this fragrance with incense in the base solely based on reviews, and I didn't regret it. The decisive moment was the promotional video of Guerlain's Shalimar Legend with Zemira's music - it was the climax of chills on the skin.
Now let's talk about the fragrance itself - it's more of a philosophy and art rather than just a scent. It's very complex in its composition, elitist, and far from ordinary. At the top, there's more lemon than bergamot, the middle is powdery, and the base resonates with an animal ensemble - leather, musk, and civet. Frankincense and vanilla are quite subtle. It may not appeal to everyone, so it's worth testing. I give it 5 stars for its special multidimensionality. It's a comforting scent because it makes you feel confident.
I have always wanted to try the legendary Shalimar perfume. I love vintage fragrances, so reviews that describe it as "old-fashioned" or "for older women" actually intrigue me. However, I was deeply disappointed when I finally applied it. My first thought was, "Is this the famous Shalimar?!" It was nothing like what I had imagined. Firstly, it is not at all vintage. The initial notes are overpowering, and the subsequent stages leave me indifferent. It's a mixed feeling - neither good nor bad. I will continue to use it, but most likely, I won't repurchase it.
In October, I bought a 50ml bottle and today I bought another one because I realized that I would run out quickly, and I can't live without it anymore. It is amazing, long-lasting, and luxurious. I have bought several perfumes on this website, and I don't know what they write about longevity and counterfeit products, but I am satisfied with the website's service, delivery, and of course, the perfumes. I am your customer.
Thank you Makeup for my Shalimar, I checked everything, all the numbers match, I also know the date, THANK YOU VERY MUCH! Now, regarding the perfume itself, I chose it solely based on reviews without testing it, because everyone says that every woman should get acquainted with it, so I did, just half an hour ago. It has a pleasant scent of incense, cedar, and leather, very long-lasting. I am satisfied with this fragrance!

I received my favorite fragrance
Shalimar - the scent of Istanbul. Unforgettable, enticing, and mind-blowing. ★
I have run out of Shalimar Initial and can't find it anywhere, they say it has been discontinued. Well, that's a shame. I bought this classic as a replacement. It is truly something. At first, it has a very sharp scent, I even thought it smelled like my grandfather's triple cologne. But after 30-40 minutes, it unfolds into an incredible aroma. I can't understand what notes it has, it is both fresh, sweet, and powdery, a very deep and iridescent scent. I just walk around and enjoy it. I asked my son, he said it has a very soft and warm smell, very pleasant. I can feel it on myself when I start moving, otherwise, I just blend in with it. Simply incomparable, very long-lasting. But I apply it 40 minutes before going out so that the initial notes settle a bit and it fully opens up. Special thanks to Makeup for the quick processing and delivery.
Thank you to the company for the quick response regarding the batch code. My first Shalimar is not only divinely beautiful but also very fresh!
I'm sorry, but these perfumes are not for me. I bought them after reading reviews. They smell like they're from my grandmother's trunk. I am disappointed.
By the way, this applies not only to Shalimar! Right now I am wearing Samsara and I am simply in a state of perfume ecstasy!!! I love this madness!!! I simply adore it!!! And age doesn't matter here!

The scent is wonderful! I bought it randomly, and I really love it.
Complex aroma. It must be understood. I wouldn't recommend getting it without testing it first - it won't appeal to everyone.
My collection has been enriched with another masterpiece - Guerlain Shalimar. It opens with notes of grapefruit, bergamot, and frankincense. Then a dusty rose takes the stage and frankincense resounds once again. The heart of the fragrance is musk, frankincense, leather, and woody notes. The associations are a hot southern night, a gentle warm sea breeze, and a hookah with eastern sweets on a silver tray with exquisite engravings. This is a prestigious fragrance - not rushed, long-lasting, deep, and alluring.
I bought it on a whim. I really wanted to experience the classics. My first impression - I've heard this scent somewhere before... it brought back pleasant childhood memories.

First, the rubber, then vibrant Indian curry spices, a jasmine flower, patchouli, and... frankincense.
Love at first breath! After reading various reviews, I was prepared for anything! Including the rubber part. But based on the positive ones, I understood for sure, it's mine! Girls with similar preferences give very articulate descriptions. I received it before leaving for work in the night. Honestly, I bathed in it after taking a shower.

I cannot use it, as the scent is very unpleasant to me. However, I am to blame myself as I mistakenly confused the name and ordered this version.
Shalimar is a powdery fragrance. It is very long-lasting, with just two sprays lasting the whole day. The scent starts off heavy but then becomes very elegant and lingering.

My wife really liked it. Thank you so much for the gift.
This scent is really cool.
My long-standing love. I will never forget it.
Great perfume. It is of high quality and smells just right. I received a discount for my birthday and I am very happy! Thank you.
Great scent. Unexpected and luxurious. Unparalleled. This is definitely for me. Bought it based on reviews, 50 ml and no regrets. Now it's my go-to fragrance. It made my birthday! Thank you makeup for the fast delivery and birthday discount.
I received it. Thank you for the makeup!
I have been using it for 2 weeks now, but I just can't get used to the overpowering vanilla scent. I don't feel anything else in it... It's been around for almost 100 years, so what demand can there be?)))

Thank you, Maycap! The fragrance is a work of art! I bought the 50ml bottle on sale. Wishing everyone successful purchases.
This product is a masterpiece, without a doubt! It's not for everyone, you need to grow into it, accept it, and love it. It's warm, passionate, enveloping, powdery; it's so sunny and multifaceted, the vanilla and incense simply enchant. Hour after hour, you want to inhale it more and more! It's luxury! Definitely fit for a queen!
Amazing scent! It sounds different on everyone. At first, it's sharp and slightly bitter, but then it becomes incredibly multifaceted. Powdery, sweet, and interesting. My husband says that thanks to this perfume, you can recognize me in a huge crowd with your eyes closed. But the scent feels more suitable for winter, in my opinion. I can't imagine wearing it in the summer. The longevity is average. The makeup service is always excellent.
I find it astonishing, but "L'Instant" smells like sweet powder on me, and I really like it.
I randomly chose this fragrance with incense in the base solely based on reviews, and I didn't regret it. The decisive moment was the promotional video of Guerlain's Shalimar Legend with Zemira's music - it was the climax of chills on the skin.
Now let's talk about the fragrance itself - it's more of a philosophy and art rather than just a scent. It's very complex in its composition, elitist, and far from ordinary. At the top, there's more lemon than bergamot, the middle is powdery, and the base resonates with an animal ensemble - leather, musk, and civet. Frankincense and vanilla are quite subtle. It may not appeal to everyone, so it's worth testing. I give it 5 stars for its special multidimensionality. It's a comforting scent because it makes you feel confident.
I have always wanted to try the legendary Shalimar perfume. I love vintage fragrances, so reviews that describe it as "old-fashioned" or "for older women" actually intrigue me. However, I was deeply disappointed when I finally applied it. My first thought was, "Is this the famous Shalimar?!" It was nothing like what I had imagined. Firstly, it is not at all vintage. The initial notes are overpowering, and the subsequent stages leave me indifferent. It's a mixed feeling - neither good nor bad. I will continue to use it, but most likely, I won't repurchase it.
In October, I bought a 50ml bottle and today I bought another one because I realized that I would run out quickly, and I can't live without it anymore. It is amazing, long-lasting, and luxurious. I have bought several perfumes on this website, and I don't know what they write about longevity and counterfeit products, but I am satisfied with the website's service, delivery, and of course, the perfumes. I am your customer.
Thank you Makeup for my Shalimar, I checked everything, all the numbers match, I also know the date, THANK YOU VERY MUCH! Now, regarding the perfume itself, I chose it solely based on reviews without testing it, because everyone says that every woman should get acquainted with it, so I did, just half an hour ago. It has a pleasant scent of incense, cedar, and leather, very long-lasting. I am satisfied with this fragrance!
