The soft, sandalwood fragrance of Guerlain Shalimar has become a real classic and a legend of the perfumery art. It was created in 1921 and released in 1925 at the Grand Palace in Paris at the World Exhibition. The story of Princess Mumtaz Mahal became a source of inspiration for the creation of the fragrance. For the princess, Shah Jahan, her husband, erected the Taj Mahal. The gardens of Shalimar were a favorite place of the princess.
Shalimar means "the temple of love". Guerlain Shalimar perfume is fervent, exotic, enveloping and mysterious. Despite the various variations of the fragrance and its reissues, it remains recognizable and popular to this day. It is difficult to confuse a floral-oriental composition with something, it is amazing, harmonious. A real masterpiece of perfume art, as well as Guerlain Eau De Cologne Imperiale.
