Luckyscent Videos: Molecule 05 by Escentric Molecules

Today, I'm trying out Molecule 05. Molecule 05 is a single note fragrance. It's really minimal. It only has one scent material, and that is cashmere. Cashmere is an aroma chemical that is considered a woody smell. And it's actually really popular. It's in so many fragrances that you already know and love. It's interesting to smell it on its own.

At first sniff, it reminds me a little bit of a fragrance called Chronic by 1969, which I like to describe to people as the smell of a damp forest floor or the woods after a rain. It definitely has this dampness and a very specific woodsy quality. But people talk about cashmere as having this cocooning, musky feel, hence the name cashmere or cashmere, and a touch of sweetness, which is part of that cocooning softness. And I would say that's definitely true.

In fact, if you ask me what are the big differences between Molecule 01 and Molecule 05, I would say it's probably that sweetness, this just very gentle sweetness that is very pleasing to smell. I have tried this a few times on my skin, and I find that after a few hours, I didn't really smell it so much on my skin, which is kind of normal for the Molecule fragrances in a Centric Molecule. But when I sprayed on my clothing, it was there all day, very present, and I love that.

I'm going to try layering this with some fragrances to see what happens, but it's so good on its own as well. If you're curious, and I know you are, there are a lot of eccentric Molecule fans, you need to try it. It's great. Molecule 05.
