Jicky

The oldest perfume still on sale. Lavender and citrus over a vanilla-civet base: the first time a synthetic molecule held a perfume's foundation.

Kouros

The animalic masculine par excellence: honey, civet and leather over a soapy base. You either love it or find it unbearable, never in between.
