Guerlain Shalimar Ess Eau de Parfum Intense Spr 25

Guerlain Shalimar Essence is a perfume extract for women, presented in a 30 ml bottle. This fragrance marks the centenary of Shalimar, the first amber perfume created by Jacques Guerlain. In honor of this milestone, Maison Guerlain introduces Shalimar Essence, an intense variant that concentrates the characteristic elements of the original scent in its quintessential form. The composition opens with top notes of bergamot, leading to a floral heart that combines rose absolute with the powdery elegance of iris. The base unfolds with amber, leather, vanilla, and woody notes, creating a fragrance profile classified as woody and gourmand. The concentration is perfume extract, offering long-lasting presence. A key feature of this edition is the enhanced vanilla accord, achieved by perfumer Delphine Jelk through the addition of a precious vanilla tincture from Madagascar to the ethylvanillin of the original formula. This creates new intensity while maintaining the recognizable signature of the fragrance. The amber note develops with greater depth, revealing soft, woody facets with a hint of leather, all enriched by generous vanilla tones. The bottle design receives a commemorative update with a touch of Art Deco inspiration, marked by bold, golden Shalimar lettering that references both the history of the fragrance and contemporary aesthetics. This perfume extract is a tribute to the timeless modernity, boldness, and allure that have defined Guerlain's most famous women's fragrance for a century.
