What do reviewers say about Dania and Shalimar L'Essence?
The kind of sweetness that doesn't ask permission. Coconut and vanilla make this more than a floral, they make it a mood. Warm from the first spray, lingering close to the skin throughout the day.Dania
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
