Jimmy Choo Illicit Flower Eau de Toilette 40ml Spray

Jimmy Choo Illicit Flower Eau de Toilette 40ml is a soft, romantic floral-woody-musk fragrance for women, launched in 2016 as the lighter, more feminine companion to the brand's Illicit Eau de Parfum. Signed by perfumers Aliénor Massenet and Nicolas Beaulieu, it pairs a juicy apricot and mandarin opening with a soft floral heart, before settling into a smooth base of sandalwood, cashmeran and warm musks.

About Jimmy Choo

Jimmy Choo was founded in London in 1996 by shoemaker Jimmy Choo and former Vogue accessories editor Tamara Mellon, and grew quickly into one of the leading luxury accessories houses, especially for women's footwear. The brand's fragrance line, produced under licence by Inter Parfums, debuted with Jimmy Choo Eau de Parfum in 2011; Illicit Flower extends the Illicit family with a softer, more daytime-friendly chapter.

Who it's for

Illicit Flower suits women looking for a polished, romantic daily fragrance with a soft, comforting drydown. The composition is at its best in spring and autumn, comfortable for office, daytime and casual evening contexts. Anyone drawn to fragrances such as Marc Jacobs Daisy or Chloé Eau de Parfum will recognise the territory. The 40ml format is a sensible first bottle or travel companion.

How to wear it

Hold the bottle around 15 cm from the skin and spray onto pulse points — wrists, neck, and behind the ears. Apply to clean, moisturised skin to extend the wear of the lighter top notes. Two to three sprays balance well; the cashmeran-and-musk drydown develops on warm skin and rewards a moderate hand.
