Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Formal

Its potent Extrait concentration and historically 'rude' character make it a strong statement, perhaps too much for an everyday office setting. However, its sophisticated and sensual profile is perfect for intimate dates or making an impression at formal events, with a casual elegance also suiting it for relaxed, confident wear.

About

Jicky Extrait bursts open with a vibrant, spicy lemon, quickly giving way to a rich, herbaceous lavender heart. This fresh, aromatic core is enveloped by a warm, sensual vanilla, bolstered by deep woody nuances. It's a journey from effervescent brightness to a soft, inviting warmth, with a subtly animalic hum that adds intriguing depth.
