About Escentric Molecules
Escentric Molecules is an experimental London-based perfume house founded in 2006 that stands at the intersection of chemistry and sensory art.
History
The brand was established by perfumer Geza Schoen, who sought to challenge the conventions of traditional perfumery. His journey began with the discovery of Iso E Super, a synthetic molecule with a velvet-like scent profile that, when showcased alone, created a radical new olfactory experience that captivated the fragrance world.
Philosophy & Signature Style
Escentric Molecules operates on a philosophy of reductionism, stripping away the complex, multi-layered structures of traditional perfumes to focus on the power of a single molecule. The fragrances are designed to interact uniquely with the wearer's pheromones and body chemistry, resulting in a scent that is deeply personal and evolves differently on every individual. This approach prioritizes the interaction between the scent and the skin over traditional, static composition.
Iconic Fragrances
The brand's debut, Molecule 01, remains its most iconic creation, composed entirely of Iso E Super; it is celebrated for its mysterious, subtle, and addictive sillage. Complementing this, the Escentric line—such as Escentric 01—reinterprets the same molecule through a blend of carefully chosen botanicals, showcasing the versatility and creative potential inherent in modern chemical innovation.
