‘In 2025, Guerlain celebrates the 100th anniversary of Shalimar, the iconic fragrance whose trail has become part of history. For this exceptional anniversary, Guerlain has collaborated with the Franco-Brazilian artist Janaïna Milheiro, a virtuoso of contemporary featherwork, to magnify the legendary bottle with a masterful adornment. For Janaïna Milheiro, the feather is not just an ornament. It becomes a material, a structure, an architecture, opening up an unprecedented creative field where lightness and audacity are combined with demands and modernity. More than a limited, numbered edition, this opus transcends the legend, elevating Shalimar to the rank of an olfactory work of art. This precious bottle contains Shalimar L’Essence, a delicious and captivating interpretation of the original fragrance. For this exceptional variation, Delphine Jelk exalts vanilla, the queen essence of the Guerlinade.’ – Guerlain
