Hello friends, I thought I was reviewing the famous 'Molecule01' ISO E super fragrance here, turns out it is 'Escentric01' as everyone is correcting, I'll leave this up anyway for now and I will review Molecule01 in the new year. Thank you for being kind and understanding 🦄
Don't worry. This only proves once again that you're smelling what's actually in the bottle, not what anybody claims or what you read by mistake, hahaha.
@@ez_scents while recreating the M02 isn’t too easy (simply because of the dilution percentage, which isn’t disclosed) M01 is impossible to recreate unless you have some connection at IFF, the ingredient used for M01 isn’t the standard isomer of ISO E Super, but the gamma one, which is still a captive ingredient, therefore unobtainable through other channels.
The one you reviewed is the one called Escentric 01, the counterpart to Molecule 01. While Molecule 01 is just Iso E Super, Escentric 01 includes lime, pink pepper, orris, hedione as well as muscone. You should update the title of the video to avoid further confusion. Given that you were under the impression you were reviewing M01, you were spot on with the notes 👏👏
Leaving it as is is misleading. Many of your viewers dont know there are 2 versions and they use your review as guidance. People buy or dont buy based of your reviews. You should somehow let them know it was the wrong fragrance or they will be mislead
This, to me, is the absolute proof that you do not (like many people say) just read ingredients from the box and say them. You didn't even have the correct one and yet you managed to perfectly dissect the fragrance, even though the notes, in my opinion, are not the easiest to detect as they're very light. Absolutely impressive!
Who the hell says that, I haven't heard such sillyness at all 😂 btw, telling people about strangers talking shit about them doesn't do that person any good. Better ignore such nastiness another time, nobody can use it for anything constructive.
Honestly I think the company should somehow differentiate more between Molecule01 and Escentric01. You're not the first and certainly not the last person to mix them up. Great review tho!
I got both and I literally got to say that I enjoy Molecule 01 (on my skin!) actually more than Escentric 01 (which is in fact the composition intended to enhance the molecule's qualities). On my skin Iso-E-Super comes out very fresh, woody powdery and I love smelling it on myself. Escentric really has a bit too much of an incensy quality to me, reminds me a bit too much of the church I went to in my youth. But it really has a nice airy quality to it which I enjoy - more of a summer fragrance for me. I actually love that you smelled some of the listed components like Pink Pepper and Hedione :) You show-off ;P
Exactly. I have the bottle and box of Molecule 01, the only ingredients listed on my box are three: 1) Alcohol denat. 2) Parfum (fragrance) 3) Aqua (water)
Hi. I was wondering if you could help me. I ordered Juliette has a gun superdose. This is the note in perfumes that I can’t handle. It’s completely off putting. I do However, I love Dedcool milk. What’s the difference in the ingredients?
Hi Aaron, I really enjoy your reviews and how you handled this one. Would you be interested in making a series of videos about other notes/materials, usage and maybe with a little bit of history behind them? I would watch the crap out of a series like this
Iso E super is the most amazing thing but you don't get the effect of smelling it on your arm. Only others can get the full experience in the silage. It's beautiful, intoxicating woody, velvety slightly floral amazingness.
I get what you mean about a person that can influence how you feel about a scent.. we all have a baby name we can't use because of a person we know and just puts us off 🤣🤣
If it makes you feel any better I bought escentric 02 and then a few weeks later escentric 01… assuming both were molecule 02 and molecule 01 respectively. Glad I’m not the only one!
Aaron: I am very interested in hearing your thoughts on Afrika-Olifant by Nishane, which many people say is a “barn house” our fragrance, raw and extremely animatic. Loads of castoreum and civet, in addition to oud. It’s a somewhat controversial and divisive fragrance in the community, amongst those who have smelled it. With your particular style of perfumery and specialization in oud fragrances, I think you would be a great person to review it. I have ordered a tester myself, which I expect to arrive in a couple of days.
credit to you for marshaling through that review despite your personal initial experience. you engaged your higher self and got testing. based on this i will pass as well. thank you for the insight and lesson.
Appreciate you sharing the back story to this fragrance, Aaron, despite it not bringing back pleasant memories. Sometimes it is better to face one’s demons!
I have the Molecule 01+ discovery set. Beautiful fragrances. Molecule 01+Patchouli is my very favourite and my wife loves the Molecule 01+Mandarin (which is my second favourite but I like cause of its projection). The Iris one is my least favourite, I think it smells like pencil shavings. Will definitely get two 100ml bottles now. Oh, and the presentation of the perfumes in the box is 11/10, really nice presentation.
Excellent review, if it was the wrong item, you still nailed it, and are still the best and most interesting perfume reviewer ou there, in my books anyway. Hat goes for to you :)
You're my favorite Aaron, the mastery of your craft and the way you share it is absolutely delightful. Can't wait to save up a little extra cash to try your line of fragrances. ❤
LMAO. As soon as I saw the title, I knew you got the two confused. Same thing happened to me. I was gonna buy my mom the Molecule 02 she requested, but got the escentric 02, TWICE, thinking that the first one was just old. After the second I realized that it's a completely different formula. The escentric 02 is HORRIBLE compared to the molecule 02.
I think molecule 01 by it self you can appreciate it more. Once you use it for layering, it does what ever, but it disappears. Molecule 01 is a killer by it self, is just that is skin chemistry
Next please review.... 24 RUE DE L'UNIVERSITE - LE VESTIAIRE DES PARFUMS COUTURE EDITION and or 37 RUE DE BELLECHASSE - LE VESTIAIRE DES PARFUMS COUTURE EDITION
Just received your Discovery Box in mail. Thank you from California! I'm really enjoying the complimentary 30ml Fake Oud (sad its being discountinued) and my gf LOVES the 10ml Santal Extreme - thanks! I'm excited for your Molecule 01 review. The projection on it seems massive for some people, and minimal for others. I ordered food at my local Cajun spot and the cashier could smell me behind plexiglass. It's one of the few times I've gotten a scent compliment in the wild Cheers
Thank you. Glad you love my work. Are you talking about Christmas fake. A lot of people have been asking for it with real Oud in. I might consider it. I ordered Molecule 1 from there website. I asked for Molecule 1 and got given the other version.
@@AaronTerenceHughes Yes Christmas Fake is the fragrance - so good! Also thanks for the opportunity to smell real oud in your Tabac, Oud, etc fragrances Please do upload the proper Molecule 01 review when you get a chance, I'm interested to hear your thoughts on it. Lack of projection vs massive projection seems to vary from person to person on Molecule 01.
I ordered the Escentric 01 EDT by mistake too, and I guess Gods hand was on the steering wheel, because I ADORE it ! And when I later tested the Molecule 01, nope, does not work too well on my skin, it has air of wood and sour skimmed milk
Molecule 01 isn't Iso E Super. It's Iso Gamma Super a different structure of the same Molecule which has more similarities to Sylvamber & Timbersilk due to the higher concentration of the Gamma Isomer. Aaron gives a Hint to this fact here 5:20
hey Aaron, how different do you think the ISO E Super in this is compared to pure Javanol/Sylvamber (not referring to the fragrance as a whole, but just the ISO E Super in Molecule 01)? Do you really think ISO Gamma Super?
Clickbait title 01. Or 101? Loved the little story, can imagine all the life draining out of you listening to that lady. Most often I've heard of molecule01 as something especially useful for layering. And supposedly, it would be easier to smell in the air than on yourself. Which would have required extra testing on some willing -victim-, eh, volunteer.
No. I dont do clickbate. I went into Selfridges and asked for Molecule 1. The girl gave me this. So I honestly thought it was Molecule 1 until people pointed out it wasn't. So we changed the title.
I know you already acknowledged the molecule/escentric mix up - but just a note on what you said about the lack of cap, you bought a refill bottle. The 30mls are also available in a "portable" version which comes with a steel case.
Molecule 01 on my skin is a very clean cedar scent that is as linear as a fragrance can be. But….it’s something I wear quite a bit of around the house or doing day to day things. It clings to my skin and clothes all day long. Escentric 01 I have not tried, unfortunately. Great content as always, Aaron! Cheers!
Great Video! But why they have to label just linalool, lindenol etc. on the package and not the other compounds of the fragrance? I mean there is iso e super in it and hedion etc. I noticed that on every other fragrance actually there labeling just a few raw materials.
Funny thing is I hardly ever use Iso E Super to me it smells like polished up refined Vetiver bit like how clearwood represents Patchouli. In some projects I will but I find Benzyl Cinnamate is a really good fixative.
And she was supposed to be senior person in the perfume world. She was going on how amazing she was for 30 minutes. I expected a top end experience crazy perfume. Or a Chanel or dior. But not molecule 1.
Thank you so much , your reviews prevails a lot of perfumes inner work and detials which as a perfume lover I really enjoy I even start to imagine things and perfume ideas because of you , thank you Aaron
Funny, a similar story here. I discovered Escentric Molecules almost 10 years ago, after receiving a tester of Escentric 01. I really loved it, but accidentally bought Molecule 01. 🤔 Which since then has become my signature scent & perfectly serviceable for layering. 🙂
@@riddhboss5438 because I go to a studio now. The picture and sound quality is better as professionals do it. I now have a scripted intro and outro I’ve developed. Having more structure means I feel more Secure in my reviews.
@@AaronTerenceHughes true but having both video available to watch is nice too. It shows us your professional skill and the journey of your experience from last year to this year. 😅😅
