Bright, fresh, sweet lemon. This one is definitely a Shalimar, but also DEFINITELY unique. Hunt it down if you can! It is bright, sweet, lemony, with the traditional Shalimar feel---but modernized....

Shalimar Legere (now re-released as Eau de Shalimar with clear juice, bottle and cap) is the first Guerlain I fell for. Now that I've come to enjoy the original Shalimar, I can better appreciate...

This is my favorite version of the gorgeous, classic, mother-of-all orientals, Shalimar. There is citrus in the topnotes to lighten it a bit, and, though the scent is true to Shalimar's character,...

Absolutely beautiful fragrance. Shalimar is gorgeous on a card but on my skin it is far too intense that I become overwhelmed by it and cannot distinguish those beautiful notes but with Shalimar...

I hunted down a bottle of this for weeks and finally found it. This is what a frgrance should be IMO. A whisper, a suggestion of something pretty and mysterious without offending someone sitting...

I love Shalimar pure parfum but it's very strong, so much so that I get a headache sometimes. Eau Legere is the perfect alternative- all the goodness of Shalimar without that heaviness. I find...

The introduction of Shalimar Light marked when the regular Shalimar was reformulated. Once they made the new bottle design for the two, Shalimar got this metal smell that makes me pine for the...

I tried the regular Shalimar once in a department store but (greedy me) had sprayed or dabbed on so many other fragrances that I forgot which one was which. But the descriptions of Shalimar Light...

This really reminds me of the way sweet tarts smell, and lemonheads taste. Then there's kind of a powdery...but almost dusty smell. It's not bad...kind of tart with a softness to it. Not what I...

I haven't smelled the original Shalimar, so I can't compare the two, but I LOVE, LOVE this perfume. It smells so feminine and wonderful...Sort of sweet and not floral (which I appreciate). It...

Well, it took me quite a lot to decide to try this, but eventually my stubborn me had to do it. Let me say I don't like Guerlains work in the last years. They came out with bland Aquas (but they...

Shalimar Eau Legere is more citrus and less cloying that Shalimar. It's perfect for days of summer heat -- and last a long time for being a "leggere'. It's a silky fragance that just makes you...

Strangely, this smells like the original Shalimar to me. I don't own a bottle of the original one, but I've used it in the past and I always stop by the Guerlain counter for a test spritz of...
