Molecule 01

Parfumour's Interpretation of Escentric Molecules Molecule 01

Molecule 01 is a minimalist woody scent built around one radiant molecule, and our version keeps that feel: a soft, airy woody note that blends into the skin.

The Story Behind the Scent

Escentric Molecules built Molecule 01 around a single ingredient, Iso E Super, a soft, velvety woody molecule that smells different on everyone and seems to fade in and out on the skin.

Our interpretation follows that idea. We keep the soft, radiant woody character front and centre, clean and understated, so it works as an easy everyday skin scent.

How Our Version Compares to the Original

The original is a niche minimalist scent sold at niche pricing. We build ours at a high perfume oil concentration and sell direct, so you get the same character for a fraction of the price.

Who It's For

It suits anyone who loves a clean, soft, skin like woody scent and wants a niche style fragrance without the niche price.

Top notes: Iso E Super

Heart notes: Cedarwood

Base notes: Ambroxan

It opens soft and airy, with a radiant woody note that sits close to the skin.

It stays understated and velvety, seeming to fade in and out as you wear it.

The dry down is clean and smooth, a soft woody warmth that lingers gently.

How close is it to Escentric Molecules Molecule 01?

It stays close to the soft, velvety woody character of the original. It is our own interpretation rather than a copy, but the impression is very familiar.

How can it cost so much less than Escentric Molecules Molecule 01?

Most of the price of a niche fragrance goes to the brand name, packaging and retail markup rather than the liquid itself. We put our budget into the scent and sell direct, so you get a comparable experience for a fraction of the price.

Is this the same perfume as Escentric Molecules Molecule 01?

No. We do not use the same formula or ingredients. It is an independent interpretation made to evoke the same style at a much lower price.

How long does it last?

You can expect several hours on skin. Spraying onto clothing as well as skin helps it last even longer.

Who is it best for?

It is unisex and works day or night across most seasons as an easy skin scent.

How should I apply it?

Spray on pulse points such as the wrists, neck and inner elbows. A light spritz on clothing makes it last through the day.
