Shalimar Souffle de Lumière, a fragrance inspired by an Indian legend

Shalimar Souffle de Lumière is a perfume inspired by one of the most beautiful Indian stories. This fragrance has its source in the seventeenth century, while India was ruled by Emperor Shah Jahan. Like all the rulers of that time, he owned several women. Nevertheless, his heart was really only beating for one of them: Mumtaz Mahal. Together, they let their feelings speak in the gardens of Shalimar. At the death of Mumtaz Mahal, Shah Jahan was overcome with grief and decided to pay tribute to him by making these lush gardens a unique mausoleum: the Taj Mahal. This imposing building alone symbolizes all the strength of feelings. Today, this is what inspired Shalimar Souffle de Lumière, letting talk the brilliance and infinite radiance of love.

Jasmine as star of Guerlain's composition

To finalize the recipe for Shalimar Souffle de Lumière, Thierry Wasser, official perfumer of Guerlain, did not hesitate to travel the world in search of the purest varieties of jasmine. Indeed, this iconic flower of women’s perfume is the center of this new fragrance. Its floral and enveloping breath is here married to the exotic warmth of ylang-ylang. Shalimar Souffle de Lumière is refreshed by the incisive and vibrant presence of bergamot. Finally, its wake ends with a delicious and solar touch of Madagascar vanilla. The result is a very contrasting perfume, at once radiant with brightness, comforting and wildly seductive.

Its design has remained timeless and we now share a part of the history of Guerlain. The set represents an engraved pedestal sink.
