As we discussed on our previous post with news on upcoming Guerlains, the French fragrance and cosmetics house is very busy issuing "flankers" for 2012. Two feminine ones will be issued in the following months, one a new unexpected spin on Shalimar Parfum Initial, the other a new duet of notes for Idylle. The commercially successful experiment of Shalimar Parfum Initial (2011), an introductory Shalimar for those consumers who knew the brand through their cosmetics and skincare or for the young clientele that always associated the classic Shalimar with older generations and longed for a version to claim their own (see also Shalimar Eau Legere/Shalimar Light and Eau de Shalimar for previous efforts into this arena). For 2012 Guerlain is planning on launching a flanker to the modernised Shalimar Parfum Initial version, this time called Shalimar Initial L'Eau. Shalimar Initial L'Eau is both a lighter and drier new formula, not just a different concentration or bottle edition (Shalimar in general knows more limited editions than it can possibly count). It takes as a point of departure a spring bouquet, comprised of bright, green-smelling blossoms of lily of the valley, freesia and hyacinth, to accompany the familiar warmth of the modernised Shalimar Initial. The new spin boosts the green freshness (like that in Miss Dior Chérie L'Eau) which was already an element in the Initial. Fragrance that bears the mark of the 1920's, the time it was created, Shalimar was considered somewhat inappropriate at the time (well, so were the tango and the waltz!). Despite this, it has become popular with at least 4 generations of women and still stands as the quintessential oriental fragrance. Its name means abode of love in Sanskrit and comes from the Shalimar Gardens in Lahore, where the Emperor Shah Jahan used to walk with his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal. Later, he built the Taj Mahal mausoleum to honor after his untimely death. Shalimar was created by Jacques Guerlain and made his debut in 1925 at the Exposition Internationale d As we discussed on our previous post with news on upcoming Guerlains, the French fragrance and cosmetics house is very busy issuing "flankers" for 2012.
