A MILLÉSIME THAT CELEBRATES SENSUALITY
An exceptional iris butter heightens vanilla’s sensual delicateness
IRIS
For Shalimar Millésime Iris, Guerlain’s perfumers have selected the noblest and rarest of all iris varietals, the Pallida iris, which, when made into what is known as “iris butter” creates addictively silky and creamy facets that accentuate Shalimar’s seductiveness. Key to iris butter’s precious nature is the intricate process through which it is made: a highly specialised technique that demands rare expertise and perhaps the most luxurious ingredient of all: time. Showcased here in the heart of this limited edition Millésime, the precious iris takes Shalimar’s legendary seductiveness to all-new heights, and infuses it with unprecedented sensuality.
VANILLA
Guerlain’s iconic vanilla vibrates with carnal sensuality throughout this exceptional Millésime. All thanks to vanilla beans of the highest quality, harvested in Madagascar, then combined with iris within this masterful Millésime to create an intimate pas de deux and a sensually seductive caress.

AN ICONIC BOTTLE
For its bottle, Shalimar Millésime Iris pays tribute to the original Shalimar bottle designed for Jacques Guerlain by his nephew Raymond Guerlain in 1925. Guerlain's legendary heritage bottle, its Art Deco lines evoke basins in the Shalimar gardens. As for the famous “bat” label, Shalimar Millésime Iris features Shalimar’s emblematic blackish-blue shade which reminds the bottle’s iconic cap, as well as the colour of the Pallida iris petals showcased within the limited edition itself.
