Shalimar: the history of the first amber fragrance

The house of Yardley gifted the world with Royal Diamond in 2012. A feminine fragrance rooted in the floral family. It was created by perfumer Juliette Karagueuzoglou. An eau de toilette — light-footed, but utterly unforgettable.
In terms of longevity, it sits at moderate — long enough to make a real impression. Produced in the United Kingdom, 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 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 rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A light and elegant fragrance with harmonious richness—the perfect balance between the depth of eau de parfum and the freshness of cologne
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 Royal Diamond evolves as a layered story, where accents shift with precision and warmth. The signature of Yardley is evident in details that define the fragrance identity. Nothing here feels random, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de toilette sets the depth and body this composition needs.
The olfactory framework rests on these accords: Citrus, Gourmet, Floral and Fruit without random overlap. Secondary accord layers such as Wood and Spicy enrich the profile without taking over. The profile is feminine, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived. In wear duration Middle indicates a stable lasting impression.
As soon as the fragrance opens you catch invigorating sunny opening notes: Bergamot and Pear.
In the central layer you notice Lily of the Valley, Peony and Rose keeping a harmonious floral direction.
At olfactory-group level the composition is built around Citrus, Fruit, Whiteflower and Floral. The framework further includes Balsamic, Wood and Gourmet.
Taken together Royal Diamond reads as a cohesive composition — the opening sets direction, the central phase adds depth, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. This is the type of composition best understood in wear.
