Anne Flipo

"Illicit is a modern floral amber fragrance introduced by Jimmy Choo in 2015. It opens with a bright, spicy combination of ginger and bitter orange. The heart brings together jasmine sambac, orange blossom, and rose for a feminine floral character. Honey, caramel, vanilla, and amber create a warm, sweet base, while sandalwood and cashmere wood add smoothness and depth. The overall effect is sensual, polished, and distinctly evening-oriented. It represents Jimmy Choo's glamorous approach to a sweet, confident women's fragrance."

Reviews Summary

“Illicit is generally perceived as a sweet, sensual, and feminine modern floral amber. Its spicy citrus opening transitions into a rose and jasmine heart, followed by a voluptuous honey, caramel, vanilla, and amber drydown. The fragrance is especially suited to evening wear and cooler weather.”
