Molecule 03 edt 100 ml - Escentric Molecules

Olfactory Family: Woody

Notes: Vetiver

Molecule 03 is characterized by being composed of vetiver acetate, an ingredient that stands out for its purity and uniqueness in the field of perfumery.

This vetiver acetate could be defined as a hybrid molecule, which combines the synthetic with the natural. It arises from the distillation of vetiver oil extracted from the roots of a herb native to India, which is then modified by a combination of acetic acid to soften the rougher and earthier features of the plant.

In Indian culture, vetiver oil has been used since ancient times in the making of perfumes and was known as "the oil of tranquility." This oil is valued for its ability to reduce anxiety and promote mental clarity, offering a sense of calm through its deep and adventurous character.

In Molecule 03, Geza Schoen decided to reinvent vetiver acetate from a more contemporary perspective. The composition celebrates the earthy and smoky qualities of vetiver, providing a rich and enveloping fragrance that evokes the freshness of a meadow in midsummer or a deep forest with balsamic nuances.

Schoen comments that the acetylation process highlights a grapefruit facet in vetiver, accentuating an opening that is at the same time bitter and refreshing, creating a sharper and more distinctive first olfactory impression.

The final result is an elegant and sophisticated fragrance, in which vetiver maintains its woody and slightly herbaceous essence, but with a softness and delicacy that make it unique.

Additionally, the brand has modernized its packaging, incorporating new design elements and logo, maintaining the balance between innovation and tradition that characterizes the line.
