Shalimar: the history of the first amber fragrance

The year 2013 gave us ROM Roma The Scent of Departure. Perfumer Gérald Ghislain is the author behind this composition.
Brand country — France: a place that truly knows its way around a great scent. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
One bottle, and you'll understand why The Scent of Departure has such a devoted following. The official website of The Scent of Departure — http://snapperfume.com/.
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 olfactory structure of ROM Roma is built as a continuous scent journey, where layers reveal themselves smoothly and sequentially. The style of The Scent of Departure is clear from the opening to the final trail. Nothing here feels random, and the composition keeps a clear direction.
At the note-group layer the profile is anchored in Fruit, Citrus, Floral and Musk. It also reaches into Gourmet and Wood.
In the first seconds you detect invigorating sunny top notes: Apricot, Bergamot, Grapefruit and Orange.
At the core of development you sense Iris, Plum, Rose and Violet carrying a opulent floral direction. In the base the composition is fixed through Heliotrope, Musk, Vanilla and White Wood, extending a elegant floral trail.
The olfactory framework rests on these accords: Citrus, Floral, Fruit and Musc forming a compact and readable structure. Secondary accord layers such as Wood, Powdery and Spicy enrich the profile without taking over. The stylistic positioning is unisex, which makes the scent profile easier to read.
Taken together ROM Roma holds a coherent structure — the first stage creates momentum, the heart develops the core line, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the fragrances best understood in wear.
