In-Depth Summary
Created by Aimé Guerlain in 1889, Jicky is a landmark of modern perfumery. Lavender and bergamot meet rose, jasmine, and geranium before settling over vanilla, tonka, and opopanax. Its use of coumarin and vanillin helped move perfume beyond literal floral imitation toward a more abstract, emotional composition.
