In 1889 women's perfumes were essentially composed of floral bouquets. Jicky was modern among its contemporaries and symbolized a new trend. Often worn by both men and women, its timeless character has made it a valued fragrance to this day. Aimé Guerlain composed Jicky in remembrance of a love affair he had as a student in England.
Jicky stands between a Chypre and oriental perfume and develops a fresh and aromatic top note with hints of lavender, bergamot and rosemary to blossom into a middle note of rose and jasmine. The woody end note with touches of tonka bean and vanilla brings softness and character to this elder among modern perfumes. Jicky is the first ''abstract'' perfume as it doesn't evoke any flower or raw material in particular.
