I want to buy the original, not the initial or any other "so called Shalimars". How do I know I'm getting what I want ?

First of all, if you have never smelled the original it would be best to do that at a department store so you can know how it is supposed to smell. I too love the original and know the difference because I've owned several vintage bottles. I took a chance on this one and am positive it is the real stuff. Your best bet is to go on Ebay and look for bottles like this one sealed in the box. I prefer the actual eau de parfum and saw what I was looking for on Ebay was quite pricey in the original 60's-70's style bottles I am familiar with. The only reason I did not purchase was because I became suspicious some unscrupulous sellers may be watering down those bottles because the real perfume came in a splash and spray type bottle. I would not purchase a splash style. My next purchase may still be an Ebay purchase in the EDP spray. No seller wants a bad rating and if I even suspect dilution will contact them for a full refund including shipping and will make them aware I will leave negative feedback if they refuse to comply. I hope my answer has been helpful to you. What I purchased here is the real deal and lasts long enough on my skin I am sure it is the genuine fragrance and perfume. If I have somehow been duped, the dupe is so incredible I have no remorse. ;) (I just looked at the prices on Ebay. Most are absurd. I had a great buy with this purchase on here.

Does it smell the same as it used to

This doesn’t smell anything like the Shalimar I’ve been using for 60 years. It smells awful. I would never buy from this seller again.

How do I know that this is authentic Shalimar from Guerlain?

I have been using Shalimar from Guerlain as long as I can remember and I am 67 years old. It smells and looks like Shalimar from Guerlain. I love it and so does my husband.

How do I know if perfume is not old ?

Mine was perfect. Not old. Just wonderful. Took around 2 weeks to get It though! Would not hesitate to order it again, I truly love the scent.

Super happy

It's always been my favorite perfume over the years. No matter what new perfumes come on the trend - this perfume will always be uniquely elegant on its own. Loved it. Great purchase, product is genuine, new, boxed and sealed.

Qué se pude decir de un perfume icónico que ha trascendido a su época? Había leído reseñas que dudaban de la originalidad del perfume,mi opinión está basada en un ojo abierto y otro cerrado, esta fragancia la probé hace décadas como tester, no había comprendido su aura y ahora que la tengo me encanta,y si, fue casi una compra a ciegas de la que no me arrepiento, llegó en perfecto estado, y al menos yo no percibo ese olor que ha ganada adeptos y detractores, nada de tabaco o cuento prominente, para mí es un aroma fuerte en las notas de salida se va matizando hasta una nota de fondo avainillada, casi un olor a talco de bebé sin perder si carácter. Me gustan los perfumes connotados de " viejitas" en realidad es un clásico oriental que no traiciona nada su esencia, lo recomiendo previa prueba, cómo un decanter antes de aventurarse.
