I'm a fan of 1889 too. Though I have not smelled Jicky (1889 is a dupe), I suspect I would like it. While Jicky was introduced in 1889, the only downside to the name is that was also the year of Adolf Hitler's birth.

No frag burn for me, but many years of alcohol splashes may have removed all sensitivity.
