Authentic PerfumesMolecule 01 by Escentric Molecules contains only the aroma-chemical Iso E Super, which, on its own, is less of a fragrance than an effect. It has been classed a “non-perfume” and is hypoallergenic.
Iso E Super is a molecule that hovers close to the skin to create an indefinable aura around the wearer. It is characterized by a hyper-modern cedar wood note with a velvety sensation. Perfumer Geza Schön explains its allure: “Iso E Super is one of those skin-sexy scents that makes you want to nestle into it. It’s comforting, cocooning.”
Iso E Super has a marked intermittence. To the wearer, it seems to vanish and then re-appear. This is due to the way it bonds with receptors in the olfactory system, only slowly releasing to make way for a fresh charge of the molecule on the receptors. Iso E Super does not exist in nature. It was created in a laboratory at IFF in 1973.
You have to wear it to understand it. If you have a bottle of Molecule by Escentric Molecules and feel that it smells of nothing, be patient. Keep using it. The velvety woody note is highly sensitive to body chemistry and twists and turns as it evolves, combining with the wearers’ own natural scent to create an extraordinary alluring quality. The science of scent is truly on display and is sure to delight those woody fragrance aficionados who love to venture forth and discover something devastatingly unique. A true phenomenon in its own right.
