Shalini by Shalini is the “essence of luxury”. This is one of the rare fragrances in which tuberose absolute, often referred to as ‘liquid gold’, and the purest extracts of neroli from the South of France, and tiare, the flower of love from Tahiti, are used.
Neroli represents memories upon arriving in the evening hours in Seville, the whole city permeated with orange blossoms and the sounds of flamenco. Tiare is the flower of love, worn in the hair of the beautiful Tahitian women – their beauty fascinated Shalini. Sandalwood, the exotic woody paste that Indian brides apply on their skin the night before their wedding. Musk’s animalistic sensuality balances the white flowers and leaves a soft trail.
Unfortunately you cannot buy samples of this brand online, but you are of course most welcome to try all the Shalini fragrances in our boutique.
Musk, Neroli, Tuberose, Sandalwood
This brand is the concept of the haute couture designer Shalini, born in Bombay. Shalini's fragranes are created by the award-winning master perfumer Maurice Roucel. He has only used ingredients of the highest quality and you will experience that immediately. Shalini started her career as an architect, but her innate fascination with texture, mood and color introduced her to the world of haute couture and haute perfumery. As a child she was surrounded by scents and her scent memories (from her favorite flowers in her mother's garden like tuberoses) are incorporated in the perfumes.

Floral
Floral fragrances celebrate the delicious scent of flowers, being the richest source of inspiration for perfumers. The use of flowers in perfumes have been used since antiquity; from soft delicate flowers like freesia, muguet and blossoms, to narcotic flowers like jasmine, tuberose and gardenia... Enjoy, and smell the roses!
Maurice Roucel
Maurice Roucel was working as a chemist in Chanel's laboratory in 1973 when he began his career as perfumer. He was the apprentice of Henri Robert, who was at the time the house perfumer at Chanel. Roucel learned the ropes and discovered the world of Haute-Parfumerie. Since then, Roucel has been awarded prestigious prizes such as the Prix Francois Coty in 2002 and FiFi, or "Oscar des Perfumes." He is a master perfumer whose creative work is characterized by opulent sensuality – sprung from his preference for musk, white flowers and amber.
