&-success
In this example the & = .icn
To add additional examples of this using BEM
<div class="block">
<span class="block__element"></span>
<span class="block__element block__element--modifier"></span>
</div>
.block {
position: relative;
&__element {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
&--modifier {
left: 50px;
}
}
}
