SHALIMAR, A LIVING LEGEND FOR 100 YEARS
Few perfumes survive through time and fashion without losing their aura. Shalimar, born in 1925, is one of them. The first amber fragrance created by Jacques Guerlain, Shalimar is celebrating its 100th anniversary. To mark this exceptional event, the House is unveiling Shalimar L'Essence, an intense new variation that captures the distinctive codes of Shalimar: its quintessence. A tribute to the modernity, audacity, and eternal seduction of Guerlain's most famous feminine fragrance.
"Wearing Shalimar means letting your senses take power." Jacques Guerlain
THE MYTHICAL AMBER ACCORD ENHANCED BY AN OVERDOSE OF VANILLA
This intense eau de parfum celebrates vanilla in all its forms. To the ethylvanillin present in Jacques Guerlain's original formula, Delphine Jelk adds the precious tincture of Madagascar vanilla, derived from ancestral Guerlain expertise, to give Shalimar a new intensity.
Discreet and subtle, bergamot illuminates the floral heart that combines rose absolute with the powdery elegance of iris. Little by little, Shalimar's amber unfolds. Used in overdose, vanilla infuses it with new facets that are at once sweet, woody, and lightly leathery.
PERFUMER SECRETS
More than a fragrance, Shalimar L'Essence is a declaration of love. It's the declaration of love from Delphine Jelk, Creative Director of Guerlain Perfumes, to the icon of the House's heritage, and especially to its most emblematic note. The keystone of its trail, the secret of its universal seduction: vanilla. Tender and sensual, enveloping and seductive, the precious pod is an emblem of the Guerlain palette. An essential element in the Guerlinade that is the signature of many of the House's perfumes.
THE OBJECT OF DESIRE REVISITED
For Shalimar L'Essence, Guerlain reinterprets the logo of its iconic bottle. A nod to Art Deco, Shalimar's contemporary artistic movement. Assembled into a bold, graphic logo, the letters are crafted in a golden hue reminiscent of the juice itself. Both rooted in its history and resolutely contemporary, the iconic bottle builds a bridge between the eternal Shalimar and that of tomorrow.
100 YEARS OF PASSION
Because Shalimar owes its success solely to the women who are loyal to it, Guerlain is honoring them in a new campaign unveiled to mark its 100th anniversary and the launch of Shalimar L'Essence. A true declaration of love for this resolutely modern scent that transcends cultures and eras, and for all those who wear it.
