Guerlain

The first time I tried this I was very, very unsure. The clash of citrus and powder seemed conflicting, and I was left feeling confused as I wanted to love it so badly.Then, it became like a warm comfy slightly dirty but still classy vanilla that I felt was familiar and harmonious.

Despite my initial reaction I have not been able to get this scent out of my head, so have purchased a large bottle. Now, I feel like Shalimar and I are nodding acquaintances that are destined to be best friends.A very strong citrusy smokey soapy mens cologne. I dont know if its just me but this is very masculine to me. Reminds me of a cologne my uncle used to wear years ago.

Still nice tho just very strong I personally couldnt wear this just yet.I've recently gotten rid of all of my other perfumes and am focusing on only collecting Guerlain. Shalimar was one that I was sure I was NOT going to love. It just seemed so old lady-ish based on reviews Ive read. However, I decided to give it a try and now I LOVE it. On first spray and wet there is something so strong that I dont like: maybe the leathery notes. I dont get the citrus at all in this.But within an hour and on the dry down this becomes this soft, powdery scent. It's like a warming resin incense. The dry down keeps changing, first its warm vanilla, than its this firey fesin and ends in a bouquet of flowers.
