They say it’s woody with notes of pine. My girlfriend said she liked it. I guess that’s why she bought this massive 100ml bottle for £115.

This one, Escentric Molecule 5? It’s a bit confusing as there are two molecule 05 versions online a citrus one and this one, the citrus one may be better.

This one is a funny smelling fragrance meant for both men and women apparently. The story is the perfumer a German guy Geza Scheon created a synthetic fragrance molecule he says is the base of all 5 Escentric molecule options, simply named, 01, 02, 03, 04 and 05. Although there are two versions of No. 5 one citrus one woody so the citrus one might be better.

The key molecule is called Cashmeran. Not sure what that is though.

They come in two sizes, 30ml and 100ml. I’d go for the 30ml first to see if you like it. This one is weird for sure.

She tried it and agreed it smells really funny, like pine scented loo cleaner she said. She’s ended up reselling it on a secondhand site as you cannot return fragrance once opened which is fair enough, cannot be resold by the shop.

These fragrance collection is available on the eccentric website or from NK space,

John Lewis, Harvey Nichols, Selfridges and Harrods in the UK. The guy who makes it began in 2006 so it is a pretty big success story. For me a mistake, big mistake.
