Papyrus Moléculaire is addictive stuff. Transparent layers of clean, spicy wood and peppery papyrus are laid down one on top of the other until a soft green leather takes shape, an alchemy that makes you stop and marvel. The luminescence of the woods and leather is aptly captured in the word Moléculaire, as even the scent’s heavier, more resinous materials, like frankincense, elemi, and tonka bean, appear suspended in molecules with plenty of air and space between, like the best fairy lights ever.
But the Moléculaire also surely refers to the forcefield of attractiveness that settles around the wearer of this scent. Carrot seed add a mysterious muskiness to the brisk, almost watery aromas of clean leather, wood, and spice, acting as an invisible thread that will pull people closer. Tonka bean dusts the scent in powdered hay but skips the sugar entirely. Papyrus Moléculaire is not dirty, nor ambery, nor miles deep in flavor. Instead, the fragrance attracts with its ethereal cleanliness. Lumber, papyrus, and leather bleached by the sun and crushed into a dry powder that wears like a second skin. Lovers of Le Labo Santal 33 wishing for a deeper, spicier take will find their bliss in Papyrus Moléculaire.
