Few perfumes span ages and fashions without losing their aura. Shalimar, composed in 1925, is one of them. The first amber perfume in history created by Jacques Guerlain, Shalimar celebrates its 100th anniversary. To mark this exceptional event, the Maison is revealing Shalimar L’Essence, a new intense variation which concentrates Shalimar’s distinctive codes: its quintessence. A homage to the timeless modernity, daring and seduction of Guerlain’s most famous scent for women.
“To wear Shalimar is to let your senses take over.”
Jacques Guerlain
This intense eau de parfum celebrates vanilla in every form. Delphine Jelk has added the precious Madagascan vanilla tincture stemming from Guerlain’s ancestral know-how to the ethylvanillin found in Jacques Guerlain’s original formula, giving Shalimar a new intensity.
Discreet and subtle, bergamot illuminates the floral heart which blends rose absolute with the powdery elegance of iris. Little by little, Shalimar’s amber note unfolds. Used in abundance, vanilla infuses it with new facets – smooth and woody with a hint of leather.
The Language of Temptation
In the flickering glow of candlelight, where shadows dance and words linger unspoken, Sin Poetry is written in the spaces between. Between longing and surrender, between silence and confession. It is a fragrance that wraps around the wearer like a whispered secret, intoxicating yet elusive. Poetry in cashmere verses.
The First Stanza
Cardamom: Known as “the queen of spices,” cardamom’s complexity makes it one of the most precious ingredients in perfumery. In Sin Poetry, cardamom ignites the fragrance with its warm, aromatic spice, weaving an air of intrigue and anticipation. Its presence lingers, like a quiet confession waiting to be spoken, teasing the senses with its bold yet refined allure.
The Rhyme of Shadows
Violet: A symbol of elegance and mystery, violet blooms softly at the heart of Sin Poetry, its powdery sweetness both fragile and captivating. Its scent is delicate, like a fleeting memory, yet it leaves an indelible mark. Violet’s gentle allure bridges the gap between light and shadow, adding an air of quiet sophistication to this poetic fragrance.
The Thrill of the abyss
There is a moment when hesitation vanishes, when instinct takes over and the unknown no longer feels like a risk, it feels inevitable. “On The Edge” is a fragrance that exists in that fleeting second, where the air is thick with anticipation, where the pull of something dark and magnetic is impossible to resist.
The Smoke Before the Fire
Incense: Mystical and hypnotic, incense has long been used in rituals, its curling tendrils carrying secrets into the air. In On The Edge, it rises like the first whisper of forbidden scents, smoky, sacred, and unrelenting. It doesn’t just fill the space; it claims it, drawing you deeper into the unknown, where clarity dissolves into a haze of intrigue.
The Descent Into Shadow
Soft yet commanding, orris unfolds like a secret long buried. Powdery and velvety, it has an almost ethereal presence, delicate but unshakable. Like the memory of something once touched but never forgotten. In On The Edge, it adds depth and quiet intensity, balancing the smoky top notes with an air of quiet confidence, the moment before mystery turns into revelation.
The Clash of Two Worlds
In the dim glow of an opulent casino, where the air is thick with tension and the weight of untold fortunes, a game unlike any other begins. This is not just a poker match it is a silent battle, a war waged in the flick of a wrist, the careful exhale of a breath, the subtle arch of a brow. On one side, the West, sleek and commanding, playing with calculated precision. On the other, the East, enigmatic and poised, a master of deception and patience.
The Opening Bet – Saffron
Saffron: Known as “red gold,” saffron is one of the rarest and most luxurious ingredients in perfumery. Its warm, spiced aroma lends a golden radiance to the opening of Royal Flush, setting the stage with a touch of opulence and intrigue. The scent of saffron is both elegant and bold, a perfect introduction to this high-stakes fragrance.
The Play of Shadows
Agarwood (Oud): Revered as the king of fragrance ingredients, oud brings a deep, smoky richness to the heart of Royal Flush. Extracted from the resinous heartwood of aquaria trees, this precious note evokes mystery and sophistication. It adds an earthy depth to the fragrance, symbolising the timeless elegance of tradition.
A Sensual Galaxy
An Orbit of Desire
A fragrance that opens with a cosmic pulse, a burst of ripe fruit and solar light. Quickly, the orbit shifts. Tuberose and white florals bloom with radiant sensuality, softened by the creamy warmth of coconut.
The scent doesn’t rise — it draws you in. At its heart, Cosmology is tactile. Musky powder and jasmine linger like second skin. Solar notes wrap it in intimacy, not light. This is where desire turns quiet, deeper, felt more than smelled. It clings in waves, like memory, like heat that doesn’t leave.
Cosmology isn’t for the agreeable. It’s for the ones who fall hard, love big, and leave a trace. It doesn’t sit politely in the background — it surrounds. Shapes. Seduces. A scent that reflects complexity, that dares to hold contrast. If it feels like it’s seeing right through you… it is.
The Golden Age – Whiskey
Aged, rich, and intoxicating, whiskey sets the tone for Brown Sugar, infusing the fragrance with a deep, honeyed warmth. The air hums with its smooth, oaky depth, a scent that carries both refinement and temptation. Swirled into dark caramel and brown sugar, it creates an opening that is opulent yet comforting—like the first sip of something rare, slow, and meant to be savored.
Resinous Notes: Dark, rich, and profoundly sensual, resinous notes settle at the base of Brown Sugar, leaving a trail of deep, smoldering warmth. Their smooth yet smoky presence lingers on the skin, adding a touch of mystery—a whisper of something rare and untamed. Balanced with musk and amber, they transform sweetness into something bold, seductive, and endlessly intoxicating.
Queenside Extrait de Parfum is the embodiment of being present, a scent that thrives in the beauty of the moment. With luminous top notes of Pear and Lychee Leaves, it opens with an air of freshness and vitality. At its heart, elegant florals bloom effortlessly, a reflection of grace and poise. The indulgent richness of Cassis Cream adds a touch of intrigue, while the warm, smoky blend of Madagascar Patchouli and Oakmoss grounds the fragrance in timeless sophistication. Queenside is a celebration of confidence, presence, and the quiet power of knowing you’re exactly where you’re meant to be.
EXPERIENCE THE ALLURE OF TWO KEY INGREDIENTS
CASSIS
Cassis captures the luscious essence of blackcurrant liqueur, blending the juicy, slightly tart aroma of ripe blackcurrants with a silky creaminess that adds an irresistible sweetness. This vibrant note enhances the edibility and addictive quality of any fragrance. Rooted in Northern Europe and celebrated in Burgundy, France, blackcurrant has been cherished for centuries, finding its way into perfumery in the 1970s. Its fresh, fruity, and tart complexity brings depth and elegance to modern scents. Cassis offers a rich olfactory profile, balancing blackcurrant’s brightness with creamy nuances and subtle herbal and floral undertones, making it an enchanting addition to any composition.
GERANIUM
Geranium is a richly complex note, often compared to the sweet scent of rose but distinguished by its zesty lemon balm brightness, minty spice, and sharp green undertones. Native to South Africa, where it thrives in deep shades of purple and red, Geranium is also cultivated in Egypt, Morocco, and China. Its velvety leaves, coated in oil-rich glandular hairs, release their fragrant essence through steam distillation before the flowers bloom, preserving their freshest aroma. In some cases, volatile solvents are used to obtain an absolute, capturing even richer nuances of this remarkable ingredient. Geranium’s unique balance of floral sweetness, citrus zest, and green sharpness secures its place as a timeless cornerstone in perfumery.
