Guerlain Shalimar L'Essence Eau de Parfum 90ml

Shalimar, the very first amber fragrance created by Jacques Guerlain, is celebrating its 100th anniversary. To mark this exceptional occasion, Maison Guerlain unveils Shalimar L'Essence, a new, intense variation that concentrates Shalimar's signature elements: its quintessence. A tribute to the timeless modernity, boldness, and seductiveness of Guerlain's most famous women's fragrance. Shalimar L'Essence is more than a perfume: it's a declaration of love. A declaration of love, signed by Delphine Jelk, Director of Fragrance Creation and Perfumer at Guerlain, to the most emblematic note of this iconic fragrance, its cornerstone: vanilla. Delphine Jelk has added the precious vanilla tincture from Madagascar, inspired by Guerlain's traditional savoir-faire, to the ethyl vanillin from Jacques Guerlain's original formula, giving Shalimar a new intensity without compromising its signature. A discreet, subtle touch of bergamot illuminates the floral heart, where rose absolute blends with the powdery elegance of iris. Gradually, Shalimar's amber note unfolds, more intense than ever. Generous vanilla notes give the amber fragrance new facets—soft, woody, with a hint of leather. Guerlain is giving the logo of its iconic Shalimar L'Essence bottle a new twist. A nod to the Art Deco style, the artistic movement from Shalimar's time. The lettering forms a bold graphic design in a gold hue reminiscent of the fragrance itself. The design of the Shalimar L'Essence bottle is firmly rooted in Shalimar's history, yet unmistakably contemporary: a bridge between timelessness and the future.
