Molecule 01 Escentric Molecules 2006

For lovers of Glossier You and JHG Not a Perfume, this fragrance is definitely worth a try. I have a long-standing acquaintance with this perfume, starting with a sample, and my mother swears by it, which is why the bottle is repeatedly purchased. Therefore, I can say with certainty: This perfume unfolds uniquely on everyone and has fans everywhere. The scent notes move in a fresh, sharp, and spicy direction. The beginning is quite intense and alcoholic, typical for molecule fragrances. Here, patience is key. Ambroxan and ISO-E-Super may seem piercing at first, but after about 20 minutes, everything settles down, and the body scent harmoniously merges with the perfume.

A tip: Spraying the perfume directly on the skin allows the components to interact optimally. For me personally, the scent has something unique and almost inexplicable. I wouldn't say it smells like "just showered." More like a chic date with lots of gin and tonic. The exact composition of my associations is unknown even to me, but it almost seems like it has something pheromone-like, as I find it irresistible on other people. It always has the same DNA, but it’s slightly different on everyone - the best version of each with the DNA of Molecule.

A small bittersweet note: After applying, I can only perceive the scent twice on myself; after that, it eludes my own perception, while others around me can still enjoy it. A true crowd favorite that seems more intense to others than to the wearer themselves.
