Four centuries ago, in IndoPak, Emperor Shah Jahan fell hopelessly in love with Princess Mumtaz Mahal and had the enchanting Gardens of Shalimar in Lahore Pakistan built for her. Inspired by this passionate love story, Jacques Guerlain created the legendary Shalimar in 1925. 85 years later, Shalimar Parfum Initial reinterprets the legend in a new modern and luminous creation. An initiation into voluptuousness, sensuality, an initiation into Shalimar. It is the moment when it all begins, like the freshness of the first time, like a captivating new emotion. Shalimar Parfum Initial takes up the bottle with its sensual curves and the blue sapphire stopper inspired by the basins of the Gardens of Shalimar. Absolutely modern, it dresses up in a delicate tassel in capricious blue tones. This irresistably sensual fragrance combines bergamont, iris, vanilla and exotic amber in the world-renowned parfum of romance. Luminous, sensual, delicate. Shalimar Parfum Initial has been crafted on the basis of four ingredients particularly favoured by Guerlain creators: rose, iris, vanilla and tonka bean. 2011 EDITION important information This product is for external use only
