What do reviewers say about Allegra Spettacolore and Shalimar L'Essence?
Three notes sounds like a limitation until you smell it. Iris brings cool powder, myrrh adds warm resin, amber anchors everything with staying power. The Allegra collection from Bvlgari doesn't.Allegra Spettacolore
This is not your grandmother's Shalimar. L'Essence takes the classic in a more abstract direction with incense and almond leading the charge. The vanilla is still there but draped in smoke and iris.Shalimar L'Essence
