The first modern perfume. Jicky represented a break with traditional perfumery: it marked a beginning of 'emotive' perfumery, which no longer tried to copy the odor of flowers but instead aimed to stir the emotions. Thanks to Jicky, the creations that followed would have a real trail, tenacity & an interplay of unique facets. Jicky is the magical perfume that combines freshness & gaiety with soothing notes such as vanilla. The Jicky woman is spontaneous & dynamic; her style is natural & sporty. At the time of its creation, women may have found Jicky puzzling, but men adopted it immediately. Today, this fresh & vigorous fragrance is the delight of women & men alike. The bottle was inspired by 19th-century pharmacy bottles. Streamlined & sober, almost masculine, it is crowned with a stopper that recalls a champagne cork, a clever nod to parties & the sparkling woman who wears the fragrance. Fragrance Description. Oriental chypre Fresh, dynamic, surprising Filled with contrasts & dualities, freshness & oriental notes, Jicky is a magical perfume that plays on the olfactory ambiguity between masculine & feminine. The subtle spicy notes that blossom with the usual warmth of the oriental facet also play skillfully with the fresh & aromatic notes of lemon & lavender at its heart. Underneath this audacious structure, one detects woody & vanilla notes for greater vibration & character. Perfumer's Secret. Perfume, which is also called an Extract, is the most concentrated & therefore the most faithful version of a perfume. Created to be in osmosis with the skin, an Extract creates a unique alchemy upon contact with the skin & expresses itself differently on every woman. A few drops applied on the inside of the wrists & elbows, at the base of the neck, at the roots of the hair or in the hollow of the décolleté will reveal their presence with the movements of their wearer & the passage of time without ever becoming overpowering.
