Created in 1889 by Aimé Guerlain. Originally marketed as a men’s fragrance, then became a hit after marketed as a women's fragrance. Since men still wore it, too (Sean Connery's signature scent), JICKY became the world’s first unisex fragrance. JICKY is a masterpiece that anyone of any gender who enjoys perfumes centered on creamy, vibrant, and aromatic ice-cream lavender florals should try for themselves.

From broader, historical, technical, and legacy perspectives, JICKY is significant for a variety of reasons: 1) one of the first uses of synthetic coumarin molecules in perfumery; 2) the unisex usage, and 3) the role of modern gender marketing, but Jicky is also important because it was the first example of what became known as "Guerlainade."
