From game-changing parfumier, Escentric Molecules – whose innovative scents defied the rules and spawned a legion of evangelists – comes the phere-nomenal ‘M+’ collection: an edit of scents that meld all of the signature magic with singular notes to enhance your allure. Developed by enfant terrible of the fragrance world – globally celebrated ‘nose’ Geza Schoen – these anti-perfume perfumes blend the subtlety and potency of Iso E Super (most commonly used as an ‘anchor’ in typical head-heart-base fragrances) with your choice or Iris, Patchouli or Mandarin. Just be warned… the allure of these scents is intense (they should come with a strict ‘social distancing’ warning).Arriving in time for the ‘Summer of Love ‘21’, Escentric Molecules M+ Molecule 01 + Patchouli harks back to the halcyon, polaroid days of the ‘60s and ‘70s – evoking the sexy, bohemian spirit of Woodstock and Bob Dylan, fringes and flares but without feeling overly retro. Romantic, nostalgic and perfect for those who still yearn for the days before wi-fi and mobiles, this scent shows the best of patchouli – blending two qualities of patchouli with the mystical, musky insouciance of Iso E Super to wrap you in warmth and enhance your allure. With a distinctive moody beauty, Schoen has successfully married Patchouli Coeur – a clean, soft patchouli oil fraction that’s had the top, camphor-like notes stripped away – with Indonesian patchouli oil to add a voluptuous edge that results in a smooth, languid character, perfect for those with a penchant for ponchos as well as those very much here in the ‘now’ who want something that’s comforting, mellow and ever-so sensuous. Choose from a full size 100ml, or more travel-friendly 30ml.
