Escentric 02 explores the many faces of perfume's most prized aroma molecule.
Escentric 02 is centred on the elusive power of nature-identical Ambroxan (13.5%), a sensual amber molecule with almost mineral smoothness, together with the aphrodisiac notes of green jasmine bud and a sparkling 'gin and tonic' accord, a hint of Almdudler, and "that specific smell you get when you unwrap a new Apple laptop".
Ambroxan is a crystal-chemical structure identical to the ambrox derived from ambergris. For centuries ambergris was perhaps the most prized ingredient in perfumery. It is a somewhat mysterious substance expelled by the cachalot or sperm whale, which only attains its fine scent after a long maturation floating in the ocean.
Ambergris is rarely found these days, and the 'amber' in a modern fragrance will be a lab-created equivalent of some of the aroma molecules that make up its scent. By far, the finest of these is the nature-identical molecule, Ambroxan. Ambergris was always valued for its refinement as well as its sensuality. This quality persists in Ambroxan. Ambroxan was isolated from plant sources in 1950.
Geza Schoen describes the final effect as a "super long-lasting freshness into the dry-down, with a subtle sensuality".
Anything but ordinary... if there were such a thing as an aromatic equivalent to a love potion, this fragrance would be it — long-lasting, crisp, seductive.
How to use:
Spritz onto your pulse points, such as wrists, neck, and behind your ears, as desired, and let it dry naturally.
