Guerlain Shalimar Souffle Eau de Parfum is a 90ml floral fragrance for women — a lighter, more luminous interpretation of the iconic Shalimar signature. Sparkling citrus and white florals meet the warmth of vanilla, all composed by Guerlain's in-house perfumer Thierry Wasser.
About Shalimar Souffle
Guerlain is the legendary French luxury perfumery house with a heritage stretching back to 1828. The iconic Shalimar fragrance has been a cornerstone of the brand's portfolio since 1925. Souffle de Parfum, launched in 2014 by Guerlain's in-house perfumer Thierry Wasser, brings the Shalimar codes into a brighter, more luminous register — designed to feel "weightless" and modern while honouring the original's signature warmth.
Fragrance notes
- Top: lemon, bergamot, mandarin orange
- Heart: orange blossom, jasmine sambac
- Base: Indian vanilla, Tahitian vanilla, white musk
How it wears
The fragrance opens with a sparkling citrus accord — lemon, bergamot and mandarin give an immediate impression of polished freshness. The heart turns into a luminous white-floral bouquet, with creamy orange blossom and rich jasmine sambac creating a refined, slightly sensual core. As it dries down, two varieties of vanilla — Indian and Tahitian — wrap the composition in a smooth, slightly powdery warmth, with white musk extending the trail into a soft, slightly skin-close finish.
Who it's for
Shalimar Souffle is for women who love the Shalimar signature but want a lighter, more contemporary interpretation — wearers who enjoy floral-vanilla compositions, fans of Guerlain's wider luxury fragrance line and those building a refined day-to-evening signature. It is also a popular gift choice thanks to the brand's heritage and elegant flacon.
How and when to wear it
This is a versatile day-to-evening fragrance and works beautifully year-round. Spray onto pulse points — wrists, the inside of the elbows and the base of the throat — and avoid rubbing the wrists together so the white-floral heart can develop. The 90ml format is also a generous size for daily wear.
