Whenever a top-5-scents poll pops up on the boards, Jicky is always on my list. And if the list were narrowed down to just one, I would name Jicky without hesitation. A true classic, it's modern...

My nose didn't find any similarities to Shalimar (one of my favorites). On me Jicky was a very strong almost feral bergamot/lemon, powder/musty musk scent. It seems like a scent to wear with bright...

So gorgeous, so distinctive, so sensual, so Guerlain. This scent has familiar elements - citrus and lavender most of all - but it's so elegant in the way it's put together that it is like nothing...

a giant, dancing Key Lime-Lavender pie pops into my head each time I apply this parfum. I find it delicious and refreshing, but a bit more powdery 'playdough' than I'd remembered. Will get PdT soon...

I can't believe that I have not tested this before. I actually had it in my hands to test at Nordstrom last year, but for some reason, put the bottle down. I must have gotten distracted by another...

Yes, lavendar and incense... how did he do it? Actually, I was worried about this one. I kept hearing about civet notes, rank smell, etc. so it was with some trepidation (I was trying not to get...

I'm so glad I decided to buy Jicky even without trying it first, thanks to a bit of prompting from our lovely MUA'er, Bela:) Well, initially, when I sprayed Jicky, I thought there would be no...

As with most Guerlains, I hated it the first time I tried it. And the second time I tried it, I loved it. I now own a bottle and consider it my daytime version of Shalimar. The one thing I don't...

For those of you who are comparing Shalimar and Jicky I have good news! Guerlain is coming out with Shalimar Light in 2003. Yesterday I looked at Saks, Nordstrom's & Dillard's and they didn't...

Jicky, Vol de nuit and Chant d'aromes have been my favoutite Guerlain perfumes. Love them all. My husband loves Shalimar on me but I don't love that perfume somehow - i like it. Edited on 12 May...

I hate to be the party pooper, but as much as I adore Guerlain and appreciate its formidable history, the iconic Jicky just doesn't work for me. Dry and masculine, with prominent lavender and...

I love this! Fresh with a bit of spice and vanilla. I do smell lavendar and citrus (probably my sense of bergamot) when I first put this on. The dry down is soft with vanilla and musk, but not...

Shalimar & Jicky have many notes in common, as Shalimar was first created when Jacques Guerlain accidently poured a new synthetic,"vanillin" into a bottle of Jicky. So if you think Shalimar is too...

I purchased Jicky at Neiman Marcus and it is reminiscent of Shalimar. A pleasant change.
