Escentric Molecules Molecule 01 + Cistus is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2025, created by Geza Schoen. Molecule 01 + Cistus settles into a heart of Labdanum and Iso E Super. Escentric Molecules's Molecule 01 + Cistus carries a Favourite verdict, a amber-led wear.

This one is a properly divisive beast. Some find it a profoundly naturalistic, rich amber experience, whilst others get stuck with a melancholic, screechy, and even 'pissy' woodshop vibe. You'll either love its unique depth or find it underwhelmingly one-dimensional.

About

Molecule 01 + Cistus is a minimalist composition that delves into the rich, resinous facets of labdanum, layered over the woody, amber character of Iso E Super. Initially, it reveals a crisp, almost citrus-like edge that quickly evolves into a complex symphony of balsamic and musky undertones. The scent unfolds with a smoky woodiness, reminiscent of ancient forests or sacred incense, culminating in a warm, clean skin scent with occasional animalic hints.
