At first glance, the gentle warmth of Molecule 01 shouldn’t be as seductive as it is – yet that’s what probably made this now classic scent so ground-breaking upon its launch. Based around a single note (Iso E Super) it doesn’t go in all guns blazing – flashing its wares like a can-can dancer. Instead it’s something of a smooth operator; deceptively subtle, it melds with the wearer’s natural pheromones to enhance their allure and put a spring in their step. The fact that it's not quite tangible is what makes the bouquet all the more enticing.
If you’re after a unique signature scent, Molecule 01 from Escentric Molecules is just the beguiling concoction you’re looking for. This modern classic shook the industry when it launched – and it still has many fragrance fans (and a fair few celebrities) loyally spritzing it on. Maverick perfumer Geza Schoen created Molecule 01 to blend with the wearer’s natural pheromones and create a spellbinding effect that's unique to each person that applies it. There’s a chance you may not be able to smell this on yourself (we know that sounds curious) but, trust us, anybody that crosses your path will be enchanted – in fact, we’ve had more than a few reports of wearers being chased down the street by people wanting to know what perfume they’ve got on. It will never be cloying or overbearing – indeed, when it comes to scent that will turn others on, less is really more.

Molecule 01
Like many others I cannot smell this perfume on myself ( or on my clothes ) at all - but, oh boy! I wish I had a pound for every time someone has complimented me on it and asked me what it is. It is also, apparently, remember I cannot smell it, very long lasting - eliciting comments hours after application. Unlike Prada's very expensive Infusion d'Iris which seems to totally disappear after about 20 minutes. I know which one I'll be buying again.

can't smell it
Sorry I can't smell it. Bought it based on good reviews. It's as if I didn't use any perfume at all but it's probably the whole point

Bought this perfume just to see if it lived up to the hype. It does exactly what other reviewers say-find it hard to notice it on myself but I have had people follow me in work, that I passed on a staircase to ask what I'm wearing meanwhile my office workmate can't smell a thing. The only time I have ever heard my husband comment on a perfume is with this-it drives him crazy in the best way. It must be body chemistry or maybe because it does not follow a mass market sledgehammer approach to scent. You won't find it in Boots and that adds to its mystery-don't tell anyone what it is because it our little secret. Thumbs up to Cult Beauty as well-extremely quick delivery, great price and wrapped in tissue if you want to gift.

Yikes
Purchasing this perfume was such a mistake. I'm incredibly disappointed! I'd been dying to try this one out for YEARS after hearing so many good things about it. However, after trying it on, all I could smell was this overpowering, horrible, artificial, chemical-y scent. It makes me think of a really cheap (and poorly made!) masculine cologne. I couldn't wash it off quick enough. I had a friend try it and she had similar feelings, so I'm not sure what exactly is wrong with this perfume. I honestly cannot think of a good thing to say about it. It's definitely one to try before buying, I would think!

A classic
I have been wearing this perfume since soon after it's launch in 2007, and I have never found anything comparable - despite frequent visits to Blooms in Spitalfields to try the many wonderful fragrances they offer. I always gets positive comments when I wear this, but unfortunately it's become a pretty well known scent now - I guess that's a reflection of how wonderful it is though :) The only scent that I love equally to Molecule 1 is Escentric 1.

amazing!
I am absolutely addicted to this bottle! This is the second time I'm buying this perfume. I would love to try another one from this company but I don't know if I would like it as much as I like this one. A lady in the post office window commented on the perfume - it was after 5pm and I only sprayed it before work at 7am. Love it!

Love It!
I never seen it on the street but because of the good reviews I had to take the risk and buy the 30ml just to see if I like it. I don't like it, I LOVE IT! I don't think many people would get disappointed by purchasing this amazing perfume. So if you are like me and still unsure, you can trust the good reviews. Some people say it enhances my own smell (I'm guessing a good smell;) and some say it is a very sexy scent; oh and the minority, cannot even smell it. I sure can and every-time I smell on myself, I put a sexy smile on;)

Fabulous perfume, I've had so many positive comments over the years . Shame I can't smell it, however as most of my friends wear it I guess that's a positive .

molecule 01
Well my last review of this perfume was 1 star, but now it's a 3/5 and that's because I still can't smell it on myself but I've had people come up to me in supermarkets asking what perfume am I wearing ( which is how I found out about it), and 3 separate people coming up to me saying "you're wearing molecule aren't you!!". Could have knocked me sideways. So I am now ordering another bottle. Just wish I could smell it on myself!!! :-)

Very useful
An interesting aroma. On me molecule 01 started with a cedar wood chip aroma and then seemed to fade. I needn't have worried as about an hour later it returned with a great enthusiasm. There was still the cedar thing going on but now there was a sweetness and muskiness. Every time I moved there would be puffs of the scent wafting around me that clearly others were also smelling as well. I love perfume and I appreciate this scent for what it is but the best discovery for me is that it significantly extends the longevity of all my other perfumes. I just layer the perfume and it works like magic.
