Maison Crivelli Papyrus Moleculaire is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2020, created by Leslie Girard. Papyrus Moleculaire opens with Pepper, Coriander, and Elemi, settles into a heart of Carrot Seeds, Papyrus, and Amyris, and dries down to a base of Tonka Bean, Tobacco, and Frankincense. Maison Crivelli's Papyrus Moleculaire carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This is Santal 33's smoother, more refined sibling, or an uninspired clone, depending on who you ask. If you're after that woody, papery vibe without the pickle note, this might be your jam. Just don't expect it to last a lifetime.

About

Papyrus Moleculaire opens with a fresh, green burst of papyrus and aromatic coriander, quickly spiced up by a hint of pepper and warm elemi resin. As it settles, a smooth, almost creamy woodiness emerges, often reminiscent of sandalwood despite its absence in the official notes, rounded out by the subtle warmth of tonka bean and a hint of dry tobacco. It's an elegant, understated woody-aromatic journey.
