Shalimar: the history of the first amber fragrance

The house of Celine Leora gifted the world with Hamsa in 2011. By character, a feminine fragrance drawing from the east, floral, and balsamic families. The author of this composition is Celine Leora, and that explains a lot. Released in eau de parfum.
Produced in the United States, and you can feel it in every note. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
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 rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The note pyramid of Hamsa is shaped as a layered story, where accents shift without rush and without gaps. The signature of Celine Leora is clear in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. No excess details, only what works, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de parfum supports the depth and body this composition needs.
The accord profile rests on these accords: Balsamic, Gourmet, Floral and Fruit forming a compact and readable structure. Additional accords such as Oriental add depth to the backdrop. The profile is feminine, which makes the scent profile easier to read.
When the pyramid is blended into one block the notes arrive together with a warm incense mood: Blackcurrant, Coffee, Frankincense, Incense, Lotus and White Lotus.
The heart and base are read as a smooth transition from opening to trail, which preserves the scent identity through drydown.
At the note-group layer the composition is built around Fruit, Gourmet, Balsamic and Floral. The framework further includes Whiteflower.
In summary Hamsa reads as a cohesive composition — the first stage creates momentum, the central phase adds depth, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the fragrances best experienced in wear.
