Hicky Extrait de Parfum
Hicky Extrait de Parfum opens with bergamot and a sweet-tart miracle berry effect, then moves into a cleaner floral heart before settling into patchouli, oak and Akigalawood. The result looks fruity, woody and earthy, with a stronger extrait presence. This is one to sample if you enjoy modern woody chypres and noticeable projection. If heavy patchouli or close similarity to Bois Impérial.

The available votes suggest strong performance. Hicky often comes across as long lasting with noticeable projection, so it is more likely to suit shoppers who want presence than those looking for a subtle office skin scent. As with most extraits, spray control will matter.
Notes Pyramid
Search these notesChoose where each note belongs.
Hicky Extrait de Parfum smells like a fruity, sweet-tart opening laid over a woody patchouli frame. Bergamot adds brightness, white ginger lily keeps the middle airy, and the base turns earthy, dry and textured with oak, patchouli and Akigalawood. It usually reads modern, assertive and slightly sharp rather than creamy or cozy.
Main Accords
7 MAPPEDThe fruity accord seems to provide the first spark, but patchouli shapes the fragrance most clearly in wear. Floral facets appear to soften the middle without making it feel traditionally floral, while the woody and earthy base gives the scent a dry, structured finish. The sweetness looks present, though more as contrast than comfort.

Fragranxe Review
EDITORIAL“Hicky Extrait de Parfum Review”
Hicky Extrait de Parfum is a new 2025 release from Zodiac, built around an unusual fruity opening and a modern woody chypre base. On paper, the structure is simple, but it is not especially gentle. Miracle berry and bergamot give the top a tart, bright, slightly curious start, then white ginger lily smooths the transition before the fragrance settles into patchouli, oak and Akigalawood.
What matters most here is the balance between the fruit and the woods. The listed accords suggest the scent opens with a strong fruity impression, but it does not stay there for long. Patchouli looks central to the identity of the fragrance, and the woody, earthy side appears to become more important as it dries down. That should make Hicky feel less like a playful fruit scent and more like a sharper, more structured extrait with sweetness used for contrast.
The floral heart looks restrained rather than lush. White ginger lily usually suggests a cleaner, brighter floral effect, and here it likely acts as a bridge between the tart opening and the heavier base. That matters because without some lift in the middle, a fruity patchouli fragrance can turn muddy. Hicky seems designed to keep a clearer line through the wear, with the floral note adding space before the oak, Akigalawood and patchouli build more texture.
Performance is one of the stronger selling points in the available evidence. The current votes point to long lasting wear and strong sillage, which fits the extrait concentration and the dense base notes. That does not guarantee the same result on every skin type, but shoppers looking for presence rather than a soft skin scent will probably see that as a positive. The same strength also means this is not the easiest blind buy, especially if you prefer quieter perfumes.
As a style match, Hicky looks better suited to cooler weather or controlled indoor settings than to high heat. Fall and winter have the strongest seasonal support in the available voting, with day wear slightly ahead of night. That makes sense for a fragrance that combines brightness up top with a firm, woody-patchouli base. It may still work in spring, but the structure suggests it will feel more natural when the air is cooler and the scent has room to breathe.
The main caution is originality. The only supplied review says, "Its a clone of bois imperial extrait not og". One review is not enough to turn that into a firm verdict, but it is enough to raise a useful buyer question. If you already own Bois Impérial Extrait or are specifically chasing something more distinctive, sample Hicky before buying. If you enjoy that sharp, modern woody style and want something in the same lane, Hicky may still be worth a look.

COMMUNITY DUPESCOREThe clearest comparison point is Bois Impérial Extrait, because the only supplied review directly makes that link. That is too little evidence for a hard dupe claim, but it is enough to justify side-by-side testing. If you already enjoy that crisp, woody extrait style, Hicky may feel adjacent. If you want something clearly different, approach with caution.
