Jimmy Choo Illicit
The newest addition to the Jimmy Choo fragrance collection, Jimmy Choo Illicit is a punchy perfume that smells like honey. The underlying sweetness from its honey and amber base, combined with spicy ginger and bitter orange top notes, gives this scent a softly sweet yet woody smoothness. The bottle is stunning, too. Inspired by an art deco glass tumbler, it will look beautiful on your dressing table.
