Habit Rouge Parfum Guerlain for men

Shalimar was created by Jacques Guerlain in 1925, as a tribute to the legendary love story between Emperor SHAHJAHAN and his wife Mumtaz Mahal. Before he became emperor his name was Prince Khurram. According to the legend, twenty- year-old Prince Khurram met a young girl, named Arjumand Banu at the bazaar where her family worked. Mesmerized by her beauty, after becoming emperor, he made her his wife as Mumtaz Mahal, meaning the "Jewel of the Palace". After the wedding, the prince and Mumtaz were inseparable, in war and in peace. She had given 13 children to Shahjahan and died during the birth of their 14th child at the age of 39. Her death devastated Shah Jahan and had built Taj Mahal in memory of his wife and their undying love. Shalimar is named after ‘The Gardens of Shalimar’.It was Mumtaz’s favorite garden. Shalimar is one of the best selling perfumes ever and its magic is undeniable. Perfume is composed of citrus notes; lemon and bergamot, jasmine, may rose, opoponax, Tonka bean, vanilla, iris, Peru balsam and gray amber. The coolness of the citrus notes lead to a floral heart ending with a warm and luxurious trail.

Vanille Planifolia Extrait 21 reveals vanilla in its most perfect olfactory expression at Guerlain and reveals a most delicious signature. Taken to its climax, the overdose of vanilla is tinged with that Guerlain je ne sais quoi which makes it a great perfume, in an ultimate concentration of 30%. Guerlain Perfumers increase the intoxication of vanilla by punctuating it with spicy notes. In the background, it is enveloped in musky notes and the famous opopanine, Guerlain's legendary amber accord. Vanille Planifolia Extrait 21 is part of the Les Extraits Signature extract collection which embodies the quintessence of Guerlain trail. Paying homage to the alchemy of Guerlinade – the emblematic signature of the House – The Signature Extracts highlight each of the six raw materials that compose it and reveal its golden ratio.

"Guerlain Homme is an authentic call to adventure. Keen on discovery, man flourishes in a nature that he makes his own. Guerlain Homme Eau de Parfum revels in contrast: freshness and strength united in a mysterious and intense fragrance. This Eau de Parfum surprises with its vibrant freshness lent by the mojito accord, the fresh floral accord and the green woody accord, which come together in an intense composition. This strength ensures its powerful and refined trail. Guerlain Homme boasts a bolder, woodier personality. Modern in its geometry and rigorous in its form, the bottle – iconic of the Guerlain men’s fragrance collection – and its luxurious wooden cap are timeless figures of French elegance. The mojito accord (sweet lime, peppermint, rum) is made explosive thanks to an extra splash of rum. The floral accord recalls freshness and refinement. The green woody accord is reorchestrated for a more powerful trail and sensuality. Patchouli, cedar and vetiver are enhanced." - a note from the brand. Guerlain Homme Eau de Parfum is the repackaging and "reorchestration" of the previous Guerlain Homme Intense from 2009.
