To me, No 5 is more the facade of love, the idea of love that newlyweds have. Shalimar is deep, complicated, rich, full of both the darkness and light of love that includes not only the selves that we project but the selves that we actually are. And the greatest loves embrace all of it, the messy and imperfect. So to me, it's not debauchery, Shalimar is indicative of true love itself.
hayyyyyyyyy Shalimar. best fragrance ever. I think Le Lion was made for both men and women, so that men can wear Shalimar unashamed of wearing a fragrance clearly not feminine by today's standards. I find Shalimar EDT fresher not weaker compared with EDP, but Shalimar EDP IS the ultimate fragrance an all rounder, smokey, flowery, leathery, animalic, what nice is today, Shalimar has been since 1925. If I were asked if I could only keep one fragrance, Shalimar EDP would be the one. Works well in heat, cold, humidity, you name it. Absolutely gorgeous. Thanks Eugen.
I agree Shalimar as a polar opposite of No. 5. When I sleep, I would spray No. 5 without a problem. I can’t wear Shalimar in bed - it keeps on waking me up!
Speaking of Shalimar I wore Shalimar Philtre De Parfum last night for the fist time full wearing since receiving my bottle a couple months ago and really enjoyed it. Today though I’m wearing Blocki’s This Grand Affair which feels like a much richer and deeper Shalimar beings though they share a similar structure. I still prefer my vintage Emeraude’s though.
As for Le Lion I got my bottle a few months ago from a friend who picked it up for me in Dubai and I get something that smells of or reminds me of lamp oil old school lamp oil which I like, does anybody else feel or smell that connection as well? Just curious.
I’ve been getting into wet shaving/after shaves so I picked up Terre D’Hermes Parfum with the after shave and cream along with it. $60 brand new, can’t beat that
Shalimar EDT is my favorite fragrance. Overall I tend to favor oriental and woody fragrances. Unfortunately I live in Miami and it's always hot, so I can rarely wear my favorites out because they absolutely turn.
I see the comparison of Le Lion with Shalimar. I got Le Lion first. Love it. Got a sample of Shalimar EDP, later, with my L'Instant de Guerlain Pour Homme. I'm enjoying the sample on my hand.
Everyone has been saying Le Lion is a Chanel remake of Shalimar. What is your favorite modern Shalimar concentration? I'm partial to the EDC, which emphasizes the contrasts of the composition better than some of the others thanks to the greater note separation.
Eugene, I have a question for you. What do you make of the cannabis note? So far I am unimpressed with everything I've tried. Do you think cannabis will ever be featured in a great scent? What direction would you take with it?
Loved the video, new releases and flavor of the season are nice but it's always great (and I'll never get tired of) hearing about one of the classics. Blind bought this one and really like it, I felt like I already knew it after smelling it for the first time, don't you get that with some of the classics? Anyways, I'm really on the look for a nice patchouli frag, been eyeing coco madmoiselle intense, what do you think?
How does the Shalimar EDT compare to the EDP? Is there much of a difference? I bought my mom the EDP for Christmas. Merry Xmas to you and the fam, Eugene!!
Hey I'm not sure if you enjoy/want/like recommendations or requests from viewers (seems like u do whatever u want lol) but I would like to see you cover the voice of the snake and FM Promise (Ever since I noticed there's ambroxan in it I smell it a lot )
Shalimar turns on me into a sweaty butt juice in the drydown. The smell you get in a busy gym with lots of guys 😂 Funnily enough, Parfum Initial is even raunchier on me than the original. Can't wait to try Le Lion! Come on UK Chanel, hurry up! 🦁
I love how much u appreciate Shalimar. It's perfect
Shalimar is my all time favorite ❤️

Can't go wrong with Booty Boutique!

Eugene, I have a question for you. What do you make of the cannabis note?
So far I am unimpressed with everything I've tried.
Do you think cannabis will ever be featured in a great scent? What direction would you take with it?

Should I get this?
