Shalimar Parfum مقابل Hypnotic Poison

Shalimar Parfum Initial is a beloved but discontinued Guerlain flanker that inspired passionate loyalty among those who owned it. The community struggles to find adequate dupes or current versions, with L'Initial being the closest but still noticeably lacking the original's powdery character. Those who owned it regret its discontinuation and guard their remaining bottles carefully.

Hypnotic Poison is a divisive fragrance with devoted fans and skeptics. While older formulations were praised for depth and longevity, recent batches are noticeably weaker and reformulated. The scent's gourmand profile (almond, vanilla) appeals to some but the initial notes (often described as root beer, playdough, or rubber) are off-putting to others, making it highly dependent on personal skin chemistry and preference.
