This scent hooked me from the very first sniff. Powdery cleanliness, white fabric, an old powder compact with a puff. There’s dry pale wood and violet with a vintage touch. The violet isn’t sugary here, it’s slightly bitter. Very beautifully done
The fragrance truly delights. It's fresh and tart, with a slight sweetness, and powdery notes add interest. All components sound harmonious and appealing
Perfumery, of course, isn't always associated with the concept of "delicious," but in this case, it truly is. The coconut sweetness here isn't just straightforward and monotonous, but resembles a light, airy cream with ylang-ylang flowers and rose petals added. This encounter with coconut simply amazed me, it's incredibly good
Vanilla isn't just an ordinary scent; it's much deeper and more interesting than it seems at first glance. Of all the vanilla scents I know, the mono-vanilla option turned out to be the most appealing. It has an astringent, woody character, and it's far from just a cozy little vanilla, it's something more! 🌟
A powerful and rich fragrance, but honestly, quite monotonous. It resembles classic oriental perfumes, but without woody notes. The sweetness here is honey-like, like oriental sweets, but sometimes light herbal spices break through in the background, quickly disappearing and leaving only this sweetness. Shalimar Parfum Initial indeed has a lot of sweetness, but it's not cloying, more like honey than jam. Despite its similarity to oriental classics, it lacks that oriental depth to be considered a true oriental fragrance. This Shalimar is more suitable for a business style - it's pleasant, composed, and doesn't distract from its wearer, allowing you to forget about it when it's not needed. The perfume won't bother you, but will always be there. It's perfect for relaxing after a tough day, as well as for evening strolls and coffee in cozy bars. I think it will reveal itself best in cold weather ❄️
The fragrance turned out to be quite dull and unexpressive. Only a light floral accent with a slight tartness is noticeable, but it's too weak. It only lasts half an hour on the skin, and that's disappointing 😕

The scent is truly summery, light, and joyful. It's like a refreshing fruit cocktail that doesn't feel artificial. There's a naturalness to it, and that's pleasing. It's nice that it's so delightful a...
Vanilla can be both calm and reserved, if I can put it that way. It doesn't always scream about itself, sometimes it just quietly whispers )
