| Blends of floral and citrus-based fragrances are recommended for casual and daywear. Spicy, woody or warm amber-based fragrances are traditionally favorites for evening and special occasions. |

| My Mother wore this perfume when I was growing up & I remember it was one of several she wore when she was going to a special event so my memory of this scent was very vague. I was at the perfume counter and thought I would try it. I spritzed some on my wrist and everyone standing around me looked up and moved away. It was awful!!! Even the perfume lady said she would get me a moist towelette as soon as she finished with her customer. As I'm standing there the perfume started to "develop" and within 5 minutes it was wonderful!!!! When the lady came back with a towelette I had her smell my wrist. She wanted to know what I had sprayed because she said it was a beautiful scent on me. She couldn't believe it was Shalimar because she said the initial spray was terrible on me...that she could smell it several feet away. I continued shopping and while purchasing an item the salesman asked what perfume I was wearing, stating that it was an intoxicating perfume. I went back and bought a bottle and the lotion. He was right! I've received so many compliments from both sexes. Thank goodness for slow perfume ladies otherwise I wouldn't have been reintroduced to this oldie but very goodie! If it is an "old ladies" perfume...que sera, sera! The men that are complimenting me are anything but old! |
