Escentric Molecules

Molecule 03 Travelspray & Refill

€105,00


Description

Escentric Molecules portables are 30ml fragrances that slot into sleek, minimalist cases for maximum portability. Each metal case is blasted with stainless steel ‘sand’ to burnish the surface to a soft lustre. It is then anodised for high durability.

The upper face of the Molecule 03 case lid is stamped with the letter m in binary code: 01101101 and the number 03.

Molecule 03 consists of Vetiveryl Acetate, pure and singular.

Vetiveryl Acetate could be described as a hybrid molecule, half-natural, half-synthetic. It is a fraction of vetiver oil, distilled from the roots of an Indian grass, which is then ‘crossed’ with acetic acid to remove the bitter and leathery aspects of the root.

The result is an elegant and refined molecule with the woody, slightly grassy character of vetiver, but far smoother and softer. “Acetylation also brings out the grapefruit touch in vetiver,” says Geza Schoen, “giving a more pronounced bitter-fresh top note.”

Notes
The Molecule 03 fragrance is radically minimalist. It contains no odorants except the aroma-molecule, Vetiveryl Acetate. Those customers who find the Molecule fragrances too subtle may wish to try the Escentric fragrances, which will always have a more powerful diffusion.

How to use
In order for you to fully enjoy your new fragrance: apply to warm zones, pulse points, where skin is generally somewhat thinner. On your wrists, the sides of your neck, back of your knees…Hair is also known as an excellent carrier of perfume – that’s why ‘team 2’ advocates applying perfume on the upper side of your fore arm. The tiny hairs on your skin ensure a beautiful sillage (provided the skin is well hydrated).


The cloud.

Are you a fan of the ‘perfume cloud’ to walk through to perfume your hair? Be sure to check the alcohol percentage in your fragrance, it might dry out your strands. Better look for a matching hair perfume. And always hold your breath while your head is in the cloud.


Body care & perfume.

Doesn’t your perfume last as long as you might expect? Make sure your skin is moisturized. Scent molecules tend to bind better to hydrated skin. So, make sure to apply a neutral body lotion or cream after bathing, before applying perfume.


Spoiled nose.

Do you hardly smell your signature scent anymore? Always check with someone else before over spritzing! Your nose might have become used to your signature scent.


Cuffing.

Never rub your wrists after applying perfume. This classic gesture does not enhance your perfume. Au contraire. The top notes fade and evaporate too quickly, you’ll miss out on the overall experience. So, let’s kick this habit!
