    What do reviewers say about Heaven Sent and Shalimar?

    This is the fragrance that gets asked about in elevators. Not shouted from across the room, whispered. The powdery softness reads as classic, familiar, almost nostalgic.Heaven Sent
    Shalimar is aldehydic history bottled, but it remains surprisingly Intimate on skin. The opening feels bright, the heart powdery and romantic, and the drydown is just plain cuddly.Shalimar
