Escentric Molecules Molecule 2

Certain products I really wish I could keep a secret, just for the fact that they’re part of that -not so little- black book with tips & tricks to look amazing. Oh yes, it’s quite the booklet by now and in the category of fragrances this one earned a spot for sure. Taking fragrance to a whole new level of stripped down, you will only find one molecule of scent in this one.

The first time I read the press file I was a bit skeptical myself as the fragrance offers us an effect rather than a classical scent with ‘top/heart/base’ structure. There’s hardly any way to describe the scent in the classical way like say ‘this smells like roses or grass’. Everyone I asked smelled something different. After using this for a good 3 months I can say I’m in love with it. To me it smells like the air after a thunderstorm, the freshness of your clothing after a walk on the beach when it’s storming and a whiff of salt gets caught in your hair too, bottled sunshine/instant happy mood, …

It’s amazing really and I don’t say that about  a lot of fragrances. Sure some smell nice or have a fancy bottle, but none have ever done what this one has. After you spray it it won’t linger like a toxic cloud of fumes, rather it clings to the skin and as you go about your daily life.. you catch a whiff of it at times. People need to come closer -they will to get a better idea of what on earth you’re wearing- but you won’t smell it yourself constantly. I quite like the fact that it doesn’t do the classic fragrance routine with the drydown. One molecule, one scent, multiple effects.

If there was ever a very strange perfume -if we can call it that at this point- that you just had to try yourself, this should be a top priority. Hard to find so you’ll have to order online or hunt it down, well worth it in the end. Just.. don’t buy it ok? I want to be the only one smelling like this.

I wanted to try these — is 02 also supposed to make strangers throw themselves at you? I’m a little sketched out about not being able to smell these before buying — it’s kind of a huge commitment!

Trust me, it’s that good :)
I can attest to the strangers throwing themselves at me!

That should have been the title of this post =P

I’ll keep it in mind for next time, more tongue in cheek titles :P

Love these fragrances, esp the Escentric Molecules 01, but have only been able to locate in in London. Where did you pruchase this one?

They’re also sold at senteur d’ailleur since not too long ago.
I got mine online :)
Haven’t tried the molecule 1, just the ambroxan one. It’s a little too much reminding of grandparents for my taste.
