Shalimar: the history of the first amber fragrance

Black Amber & Bergamot Express is positioned as a masculine fragrance, rooted in the floral and aromatic families. In eau de toilette — and that's all it takes to fall in love.
The birthplace of this fragrance — the United States, a place with a refined nose. 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 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 note pyramid of Black Amber & Bergamot evolves as a cohesive olfactory arc, where accents shift with precision and warmth. The signature of Express is evident in details that define the fragrance identity. No excess details, only what works, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de toilette keeps the depth and body this composition needs.
In the top tier you meet sparkling citrus opening notes: Bergamot, Sage and Wormwood. These 3 notes build a burst of citrus freshness that gives the fragrance a clear opening statement.
In the central layer you meet Frankincense, Geranium and Heliotrope holding a harmonious floral direction.
The accord architecture rests on these accords: Balsamic, Aromatic, Citrus and Floral with each one in a clear role. Additional accords such as Musc, Wood and Mineral enrich the profile without taking over.
At olfactory-group level the structure relies on Citrus, Aromatic, Green and Balsamic. The palette also extends to Floral, Wood, Musk and Whiteflower.
Taken together Black Amber & Bergamot holds a coherent structure — the opening sets direction, the heart develops the core line, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the fragrances best understood on skin.
