Guerlain Jicky is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Aimé Guerlain. Jicky opens with Bergamot, Lavender, and Rosemary, settles into a heart of Woody, Rose, Geranium, and Fern, and dries down to a base of Vanilla, Tonka Bean, and Opoponax. Guerlain's Jicky carries a Favourite verdict, a aromatic-led wear.

Jicky is a bona fide classic, but it's not for everyone. Expect a challenging opening that polarises opinion, from 'mothballs and bad breath' to 'uniquely intriguing'. Give it time to settle, and you'll be rewarded with a complex, sophisticated, clean drydown that hints at its legendary status.

Its sophisticated aromatic and woody accords lean towards more formal and intimate settings, but it can be worn in the office if applied lightly. The initial challenging opening means it's not an instant crowd-pleaser for casual wear or sport.

About

Opening with a bracing fougère blast of aromatic lavender, fresh rosemary, and bright bergamot, Jicky swiftly transitions to a complex heart. Woody notes intertwine with delicate rose and green fern, while a hint of geranium adds a refined touch. The drydown reveals a surprisingly warm and opulent blend of sweet vanilla, tonka bean, and the rich, balsamic depth of opopanox, creating a scent that's both classic and surprisingly modern on skin.
