  It starts like a classic cologne, very citrusy with the unmistakable touch of rosemary. Afterwards, it transforms into something vintage, in the style of Chanel No. 5, with that aldehyde that resembles bathroom air freshener and evokes primitive, erotic sensations. If you smell it continuously for a few minutes, it gradually softens and the flowers bloom until they seem almost real. It shines and resplends for the senses in a peculiar way, settling on the skin with elegance, something sweet but everything very subtle. This perfume is a challenge.

  It begins like a classic cologne, super citrusy with that rosemary that never fails. Then it shifts to something vintage, like Chanel No. 5, with that aldehyde that smells of bathroom air freshener and puts you in a primitive, erotic state. If you smell it for a while, it softens and the flowers come to the fore, seeming almost real. It shines in a peculiar way on the senses and leaves a sweet but very subtle elegance on the skin. It’s a total challenge.

  It’s easy for me to like something like this. The problem is that it currently seems like a significantly downgraded version of what it once was, reminding me of Shalimar, which I already own (though I suppose I would have preferred Jicky at first sight), and the performance didn’t seem very good. The sales assistant denied all three points: that it didn’t resemble Shalimar, that it performed well, and that it had never been changed. The truth is, I don’t know what they were aiming for with those claims, but well… And as a final reflection… it’s curious that perfumes of this type catch my eye more than many modern creations these days.

  With Jicky, something strange happens to me: at first I go crazy with that powerful green explosion, but within seconds it smells of mothballs, perhaps due to the lavender, giving off an old-fashioned grandmother’s wardrobe vibe (and I say that with affection). After fifteen or twenty minutes it fades, leaving a very peculiar scent, distinct from anything made today, whether for her or for everyone. In fact, Jicky is the first modern perfume and the first unisex in history for a reason. It was a landmark, and I would have loved to try the original version, as I am not a fan of reformulations. It’s a pity that after half an hour it’s barely audible up close, which surely wasn’t the case with the original. Despite this lack of projection that I see as a flaw, it remains a singular and precious creation that must be known if you are interested in perfume history.
