The review
Mythical scores 5.7 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Shalimar.
AromaPassions sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Shalimar's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $69 per 100ml it costs 57% less than Shalimar — the 2nd cheapest of 4 twins we can price.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength AromaPassions publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
Guerlain Shalimar is bergamot, lemon and cedar at first, iris, jasmine and rose at its heart and vanilla, Tonka Bean and opoponax at the end. AromaPassions set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Base

- opoponax
Smoky lemon-vanilla haze over leathered iris; the fragrance every amber owes its existence to.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
