Diamant לעומת Shalimar Parfum Initial

Diamant by Fragonard is highly regarded within the fragrance community as an amazing, underrated gem with excellent longevity and a lovely sweet rose profile. However, it suffers from significant availability issues in North America, making it challenging to purchase outside of visiting the Fragonard house in France directly.

Shalimar Parfum Initial was a beloved fragrance that has been discontinued, leaving collectors disappointed and unable to repurchase. While the reformulated successor L'Initial is quite close, community members note it lacks the distinctive powdery quality of the original, making it a solid but imperfect alternative for those who cherish the discontinued version.
