A hint of citrus opens the bouquet.
A heart of luxurious flowers follows.
Ends with a warm, sensual base of woodsy, spicy notes.

Master perfumer Jacques Guerlain created the timeless scent in 1925 and aptly named it for the story of Shah Jahan, the great Indian emperor who fell in love with Mumtaz Mahal. They met in a wonderful, beautiful garden called Shalimar, "temple of love" in Sanskrit. Devastated by her death, the Shah built a great monument for her, the Taj Mahal.
