What do reviewers say about Shalimar Souffle d'Oranger and Fleurs d'Ombre/Ombre Bleue?
This is the rarest thing: a Guerlain that outshines its legendary sibling. Thierry Wasser took Shalimar's bones and rebuilt them into something lighter, more generous.Shalimar Souffle d'Oranger
The marine note threading through white florals is what sets this apart, uncommon enough to be distinctive, gentle enough to never announce itself. It's a personal fragrance.Fleurs d'Ombre/Ombre Bleue
