    The sunscreen accord in the base will either be your favorite thing about this or too on the nose for you. There's no neutral. If you've ever wanted to smell like you just stepped out of a beach shop.Sunbathers
    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
