PowderyWhat does Shalimar Oiseau de Paradis smell like?
The notes read as one blend rather than stacked layers: bergamot and lemon give a fresh citrus lift, while jasmine, rose and iris build a floral, powdery body. Vanilla and tonka bean sweeten it, and frankincense and opoponax add a resinous, slightly smoky depth. Spicy, woody and earthy shades keep it in the classic oriental line, and the citrus lightens its weight.
