· Pure Oil One Ounce, Half Ounce, Quarter Ounce & 14-day Sample Sizes

Let us introduce you to your fragrance the way it was meant to be - Pure perfume without alcohol or other useless & toxic fillers. Discover what the designer had in mind - smooth, long-lasting, rich, balanced and full of luscious aroma. Never offensive or overpowering, long lasting and balanced. They occupy only your own private space and leave a gentle trail only where you choose.

Just like jewels, pure fragrance oils vary tremendously in quality. We have put an enormous amount of effort into selecting the best possible quality pure fragrance oils of every type and the thousands of positive store and fragrance reviews are proof. We've been changing the way people think about fragrance since 1996 with many happy & beautiful smelling customers to prove it.

Day after day, customers tell us our versions smell better than the originals. Perhaps the lack of alcohol and, in many cases, higher quality oils than those found in the "original" makes the difference. Ounce for ounce, our perfume bottles contain fifteen to twenty times as much pure perfume oil as the typical Eau de Toilette, but choosing pure fragrance oils is not so much a question of saving money, as it is of getting your money's worth.

Usage:
A drop or two at most should be all you need. Unlike conventional perfumes, our oils are alcohol and filler free, so it may take a minute or two for the slowly warming scent to emit its full bouquet. The fragrance will be smoother and better balanced than any alcohol-driven aroma and well worth the wait.

Our fragrance oils last most people six to twenty-four hours, depending upon skin type, evaporating naturally during the course of the day. Our pure perfume oils also last longer in the bottle - commercial perfumes with fillers spoil, sometimes in as little as twelve months, but pure perfume oils retain their fragrance year after year.

Shalimar
I am so pleased with the purchases of Shalimar. I have ordered many times from you, and I am so pleased with the fragrance. Thank you so much for making Shalimar available to me.

Shalimar: a warm embrace
Comparing this Shalimar oil to its perfume counterpart is a moving target since the perfume arguably has seen 20+ formulations & flankers in its 100+ year history.

This Shalimar oil unfolds with floral notes followed by a rich, powdery vanilla & spicy incense base bathed in honey. it's a luxurious, warm, long-lasting scent. despite wanting to douse myself in this exceptional scent, I've learned restraint is key since a little goes a long way. the warm, enveloping nature of this fragrance is perfect for an evening with wine in front of a fire.

not so great !!
Took a chance and ordered fragrance that would b similar to my Shalimar. Sorry to say I was disappointed. Not really much of a pleasant fragrance that I want to use. That’s why I ordered the small size.

Not even close to the Original Shalimar Scent
I was totally disappointed in this scent. It was so strong and over-powering that I could not get home soon enough to wash it off my skin. I tried to wash it off in the women's public restroom, but that did not work. I have worn the original shalimar for over 50 years, and I recognized immediately when I put it on my skin that it was not even close to the actual scent. I was embarrassed to get near people in public because of the unkind scent. I could hardly breathe because of the strong scent it emitted. I am so glad that I only ordered this scent in a sample size. I love the Fragrance Shop, but this is one scent that needs to be re-worked.

Can enjoy my "signature" scent again
Shalimar was MY scent several years ago. As I aged & my body chemistry changed, I couldn't afford the cologne because it never lasted long enough on my skin. When I found the oil here, I couldn't have been happier. The oil is very, very close to the scent of the original & lasts much longer than the Shalimar cologne. It's not as deeply rich in scent as the perfume, but I can afford the oil! I feel like I have my signature scent back now.
