What do reviewers say about Shalimar and Clair de Lune?
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
Honeyed rose with real cinnamon bite, not the synthetic kind that fades to sugar. This is the fragrance for someone who chose it on purpose, not someone following a trend.Clair de Lune
