Shalimar: the history of the first amber fragrance

In 2010, Brut (Unilever) introduced Eau de Brut — a fragrance that's hard to forget. A masculine fragrance rooted in the fern family. Available as eau de toilette.
It doesn't linger long, but it always leaves a mark — longevity is very low. Brand country — France, with its deep-rooted relationship with the fragrance industry. Eau de Brut Brut (Unilever) — the choice of those who appreciate depth and character in every detail.
The fragrance has very low longevity and lasts only about 1 hour on the skin, leaving only a light, barely perceptible trail
The scent exists only for you—no one around you will notice it
The perfume has a fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
A light and elegant fragrance with harmonious richness—the perfect balance between the depth of eau de parfum and the freshness of cologne
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 olfactory structure of Eau de Brut evolves as a continuous scent journey, where accents shift without rush and without gaps. The creative approach of Brut (Unilever) is evident from the opening to the final trail. Every decision feels deliberate, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Eau de toilette keeps the depth and body this composition needs.
In a unified mixed pyramid the notes arrive together with a soft-dry woody mood: Amber, Citrus accord, Lavender, Spices, Vetiver and Woody Accord.
The heart and base are perceived as a gradual shift without abrupt breaks, which gives the structure continuity.
The internal accord map is shaped by these accords: Aromatic, Citrus, Wood and Spicy forming a compact and readable structure. Background accords such as Mineral enrich the profile without taking over. The gender direction is masculine, which clarifies the composition character.
From the group perspective the composition is built around Balsamic, Citrus, Green and Spicy. It also reaches into Wood.
Overall Eau de Brut reads as a cohesive composition — the start forms character, the heart develops the core line, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. This is the type of composition best judged through real development.
