Fragrance Description:

Guerlain Shalimar EDT, starts with a bracing powdery shock of musk with compliments of bergamot and lime. As the brightness fades, it transforms into a smoky, seductive blend of leathery vanilla, incense, and animalic musks. The vintage EDT is dry and unapologetic; it smells like burnt resins and French powder inside a leather bag. This batch I would consider very powdery and musky.
