Product description
Product code: 46358505
Molecule 02 consists of Ambroxan, pure and singular. 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. The maximum percentage that can be dissolved in a fragrance compound is 13.5%. Any more, and it begins to crystallise out of the solution. Most fragrances with 'amber' contain 1-2%. Molecule 02 is 100% Ambroxan in alcohol and a little water.
This is best described as a fresh, almost mineral smoothness, which subtly expands to envelop you in olfactive layers of sensuous, sparkling molecules. Come-hither, velvety, skin-like and broodingly complex, Ambroxan, on its own, is an elixir of some facility. Shop Molecule 02 to get this magic potion, perfect for a midnight rampage.
How to use:
Spritz onto your pulse points, such as wrists, neck, and behind your ears, as desired, and let it dry naturally.
