Shalimar: the history of the first amber fragrance

Bibbi Paris Swimming Pool is a unisex fragrance released in 2023 by the French brand Bibbi Paris.
This eau de parfum has a distinctive green, aromatic and fresh character, created for those who appreciate clean accords, cool energy and a noticeable presence.
The name Swimming Pool evokes an image of cool water, damp greenery and fresh air. However, the fragrance does not unfold like a light aquatic spray.
Its character combines a spicy spark, an herbal bitterness and an ambery depth, giving the perfume a composed, modern and decidedly bold character.
In fragrance classification, Swimming Pool combines floral and green families.
Additional note groups create an aromatic, spicy, woody and ambery context, so the composition develops in layers: from an invigorating opening to a cool green heart and a lasting mineral-ambery drydown.
On the skin, the fragrance is perceived as a contrast between freshness and density.
It begins with an energetic green-spicy impulse, then becomes smoother and more herbal, leaving a dryish, clean and noticeable trail in the final stage.
Swimming Pool is positioned as a unisex fragrance, making it easy to imagine on both women and men.
It will appeal especially to fans of unconventional freshness, for whom conventional citrus and aquatic compositions seem too predictable.
Thanks to its green coolness, the perfume is well suited to spring and summer, while its rich base also allows it to be worn during the cooler transitional seasons.
It is suitable for daytime activities, walks, travel and occasions when you want to leave a distinctive aromatic impression.
Swimming Pool is rated as having very strong sillage.
This is not an intimate fragrance that stays close to the skin: the composition makes a clear statement and requires careful dosing, especially in a small room or in warm weather.
Specific recommendations for the number of sprays on skin and clothing have not been provided for this release.
A practical approach is to start with a minimal application to the pulse points, let the fragrance develop and then add one more spray if necessary; on fabric, its longevity may be noticeable for longer.
Bibbi Paris develops a French fragrance line with unisex and feminine scents in eau de parfum, perfume and extract concentrations.
Swimming Pool reveals a more energetic and greener side of the brand, focusing not on familiar sweetness but on a fresh botanical character with powerful sillage.
Information about the perfumer, a dedicated collection and other concentrations of Swimming Pool is not available.
Therefore, its notes, intensity and distinctive combination of coolness and ambery longevity remain the main points of reference when discovering it.
For further comparison, consider Givenchy Gentlemen Only Casual Chic, Ferrari Scuderia Club and Edgardio Chilini Silver Olibanum.
These fragrances offer an opportunity to explore different facets of the fresh, woody and spicy direction and discover which balance of coolness, warmth and sillage suits you best.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The top notes of Swimming Pool open with basil, ginger and mint. Basil adds a green, herbaceous touch, ginger brings a dry, spicy spark, while mint creates a cool and invigorating effect.
The heart of the composition features eucalyptus and geranium.
Eucalyptus enhances the sense of cleanliness and freshness, while geranium adds a soft floral nuance and connects the fresh opening with the more rounded base.
The final accord is built around ambroxan and grass. Ambroxan creates a lasting ambery-woody base, while the grassy note preserves the fragrance's green character.
The complete Swimming Pool pyramid combines aromatic, green, spicy, floral, woody and ambery nuances.
The result is a contrasting composition with a cool opening, a botanical heart and a highly noticeable trail.
