This is rose without the velvet gloves. The aromatic herbs don't coddle it, they challenge it, keep it awake, stop it from becoming another pretty thing that bores you by noon.Absolue Hot As Rose
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
