Shalimar: the history of the first amber fragrance

2002: the world took its first breath of Arber The Body Shop. By character, a masculine fragrance drawing from the fern, wood, and aromatic families. Offered in eau de toilette concentration.
Expect a moderate sillage — enough to be remembered, not enough to overwhelm. In terms of longevity, it sits at moderate — long enough to make a real impression. Brand country — the United Kingdom, with its deep-rooted relationship with the fragrance industry. Arber The Body Shop unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
The fragrance has medium longevity and lasts on the skin for about 5-6 hours, gradually revealing its notes and leaving a pleasant impression
It can be felt in close proximity, but does not attract the attention of those around you
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 Arber unfolds as a layered story, where notes flow with precision and warmth. The style of The Body Shop is recognizable in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. Every decision feels deliberate, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Eau de toilette keeps the right density and pace of development.
At the opening of the pyramid you catch invigorating sunny top notes: Geranium, Lime and Orange.
In the central layer you detect Coriander, Mint and Watermelon holding a spicy-aromatic direction.
The accord profile rests on these accords: Aromatic, Citrus, Gourmet and Floral without random overlap. Additional accords such as Fruit, Wood and Spicy expand the olfactory volume in the background. The profile is masculine, which makes the scent profile easier to read. In longevity terms Middle points to a sustained drydown presence.
At olfactory-group level the structure relies on Floral, Citrus, Spicy and Aromatic. The framework further includes Fruit and Wood.
In summary Arber sounds complete from start to finish — the first stage creates momentum, the middle layer carries the identity, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the scent structures best understood through real development.
