SHALIMAR- FIT FOR A PRINCESS PUNGENCE

A PRINCESS ought never to hear the words, YOU SMELL, unless the next word out of that person’s palate is ‘FABULOUS!” As a princess, I am constantly on the lookout for a fragrance that cries the “essence of me,” but doesn’t make others weep. I found that fragrance a long time ago, in Shalimar.

Shalimar is a seditiously sensual scent that is the heady essence of royal ruckus infused with classy calm.
The warm notes float out of the famous urn-shaped bottle with a fan-like blue top,
and spill onto a princess’s skin like a silky smoke of magic. Shalimar’s warm, sensuality is rich, elegant and powerful - a deliciously deep, woody floral with an opulence that sighs, this girl’s either got a bank account, or she deserves one!

Lush, lingering notes tame the siren’s undercurrent of wildness with a girlish, powdery puff of vanilla. The suspicion of citrus turns the nose up just the right amount, but not enough to be a snob. All in all, smells JUST LIKE A PRINCESS.

This is exotic stuff, characterized as an ORIENTAL AMBER, which was a wildly popular fragrance fling in 1925 when it was created.
I know that my ancestors wore it in Austria, and I can surely hear my great, great, great, great grandmere, whispering to her daughter, “Why buy the cow if you’re giving away the chevre?” Which doesn’t make much sense, as her Prince Charming was found on www.marriagetreatymatch.com to avoid some war or somethin’.

Shalimar is undeniably a REGAL FRAGRANCE IF EVER THERE WAS ONE. Jacuques Guerlain, from the classic house of perfumery, created it in 1925. He was inspired by the legendary love story between the PRINCE Khurram (later Emperor) and his beautiful wife Mumtaz Mahal, which means “Jewel of the PALACE.” He was smitten by his magnificent wife his whole life; what wife doesn’t want to smite her husband? He built the TAJ for his gorgeous PRINCESS (then Queen) when she died, assuredly as recompense for that junket to A.C. she never got to do on her bucket list before she kicked it; no one’s ever TRUMP’d it . Shalimar is named after “The Garden’s of Shalimar,” the PRINCESS’S favorite garden.

As a princess, I name it and claim it with:
“PRINCESS DIANE VON BRAINISFRIED’S FIT FOR A PRINCESS STAMP OF SAY-SO.” Other perfumes fit for a princess to follow.
GO OUT THERE AND SMELL LIKE A PRINCESS EVERY DAY. IT WILL MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE THE MILLION BUCKS THAT YOU LOOK LIKE!
