Shalimar Eau de Parfum Serie Limitee presents a version of the iconic fragrance that leans more toward the bright citrus top notes compared to the original Shalimar EDP. The opening features a vibrant bergamot and citrus profile that gives the scent a fresher, livelier initial impression, especially noticeable on the skin. Over time, the fragrance settles into a rich, earthy base featuring incense, vanilla, and opoponax, with a notable presence of iris and mature amber notes. Longevity and sillage are moderate—slightly weaker than the classic formula, but still noticeable throughout the day and into night. The scent evokes a vintage Shalimar mood, particularly appealing to those drawn to older formulations, though the difference is subtle enough that some may perceive it as virtually identical to the standard version. The presentation is collector-grade, making it a prized item for visual appeal.
