Real talk
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
Warm enough to argue with, intimate enough to pull close. The clove-carnation heartbeat doesn't ask permission, it arrives, it settles, it stays. Some people call it too much.Opium Rouge Fatal (Collector's Edition 2015)
