My mother wore Shalimar and I started wearing it when I was in college, 1961. It made me feel grown-up and reminded me of home. It did not smell the same on me as on Mother, but both smelled nice. I have used only Shalimar ever since. I hate they discontinued the talc and bath salt. I think I have worn/used every product. Mostly I use spray cologne and body lotion. On vacation once, my granddaughter said to her mother " I smell Nana!", but someone else was wearing Shalimar. Happy Woman says she wants buried with a bottle of it, but I think I'd be satisfied with my usual spritz of Shalimar scent to leave people thinking of me.
