Guerlain Shalimar Ess Eau de Parfum Intense Spr 25

Guerlain Shalimar Essence is a perfume extract for women, presented in a 50 ml bottle. This fragrance represents a concentrated variation of the iconic Shalimar, originally created by Jacques Guerlain as the first amber perfume. The composition features top notes of bergamot, heart notes of rose absolute combined with the powdery elegance of iris, and base notes of amber, leather, vanilla, and wood notes, resulting in a woody, gourmand scent profile with parfum concentration. To commemorate the 100th anniversary of Shalimar, Guerlain introduces this essence that intensifies the signature elements while maintaining the fragrance's distinctive character. Perfumer Delphine Jelk has enhanced the formula by adding precious vanilla tincture from Madagascar to the original ethylvanillin, creating greater depth without altering the fundamental identity. The amber note unfolds with remarkable intensity, complemented by rich vanilla accents that add soft, woody, and slightly leathery facets. The floral heart is subtly illuminated by bergamot, balancing the composition. The flacon design for Shalimar Essence features an updated interpretation of the iconic bottle, with a nod to Art Deco influences that inspired the original century ago. The gold-toned Shalimar lettering creates a bold graphic element that references the fragrance's warm character. This design bridges historical heritage with contemporary aesthetics, reflecting the timeless modernity that has defined Shalimar for generations. The formulation represents Guerlain's traditional craftsmanship applied to create a fragrance with lasting presence and sophisticated complexity.
