The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Jicky Extrait by Guerlain is a pioneering Oriental Fougère fragrance that launched in 1889, created by Aimé Guerlain. It was the first perfume to incorporate a synthetic component—coumarin—which added a distinctive depth and complexity. The scent opens with spicy notes and lavender, leading into a heart of lemon before settling into a warm base of vanilla and woody accords. This fragrance exemplifies Guerlain's legacy of innovation and luxury, blending rare materials like French vanilla to create an enduring classic.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays to pulse points. The spicy top notes are bright but fleeting; the heart of lavender and lemon adds freshness before the base of vanilla and woody accords unfolds over several hours. Best for cooler evenings when its warmth can be fully appreciated.
