Jicky
Jicky is a perfume by the House of Guerlain. Introduced in 1889, it is the oldest continuously-produced perfume in the world.[1]
Jicky was one of the first perfumes created with the addition of synthetic materials,[2] and was the first abstract perfume in history, meaning it is not based on a single note.[3] Its perfume notes include: spice, lemon, lavender, wood and vanilla.[4] Its stopper is shaped like a champagne cork.[5] According to legend, it was named after a girl Aimé Guerlain had a crush on when he was a student in England.[6]
