What do reviewers say about Topless and Shalimar L'Essence?
The sillage is moderate, close, not announcing. That's the whole point. Some will find this frustrating. Others will understand it's the invitation. Built for intimacy.Topless
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
