Valentino Gold לעומת Shalimar Eau de Parfum

Valentino Gold is well-regarded by the community for its appealing scent, but its high price is a significant drawback. While dupes are limited due to the fragrance being a recent flanker, affordable alternatives like Mugler Alien Goddess and Dapper dupes offer similar performance at lower price points.

Shalimar is celebrated by the r/fragrance community as a landmark fragrance that deserves recognition despite its age, praised for its sensual character and impressive performance. The community appreciates it as a historic female-marketed perfume that breaks the mold of contemporary fragrances, with strong longevity and a beautiful evolution throughout wear.
