Years ago, when I was first sprayed on it, I was immediately put-off as it really smelt like insecticide spray.
Revisited this recently, and do now understand why it is such a great perfume.
The dry down is simply marvellous...

The top and middlenotes smells kind of bugpoison on my skin for 2 hours, not the way you couldnt bare it, its just not nice.
But wow!
the basenote is heaven, worth the hidious half moscitopoison/half sweet perfume smell, worth waiting for. That warm vanilla-sandalwood smell makes me sniff my arm constantly while wearing it.
Im loving it!!

This is my signature scent. It's a definite classic, and it attracts men.
Very, very alluring and feminine.

So powerfully sexy, on me I get a beautiful powdery mix of lemony musk, it's almost smoky. It's a wonderful classic, and it kicks Chanel No 5 to the dirt. For me, this one is an occasional wear, for special nights.

I was given a 3 piece Shalimar set years ago which included the perfume, silky body lotion and the bath powder. At first I didn't really care for the scent. Then I finally wore it, I received so many compliments. I layered it after my shower with 1st powder, lotion & perfume. Then to refresh the scent I just used the silky body lotion on my hands. The lotion is as good as the perfume.
Don't judge Shalimar by your sample stick...Shalimar must be worn close to the heart. ;) I always get compliments from people when wearing Shalimar.

In the parfum, deep dark softness of vanilla and resins, nearly leathery, with flowers softly shining through. In the other forms, succulent bergamot/citrusy top, warm vanilla underpinnings. Very sensual for such a classic!

One of the most famous perfumes ever. I like it, it is not casual perfume but for special occasions it is like jewel.

So feminine, woody powdery, it changes on your skin in warm waves.
