I received a gift yesterday that blew me away totally. A Bottle of Molecules 01 : I have never smelled anything like this. EVER! My first impression was cedarwood. A beautiful cedarwood too, it reminded me of a Lebanese cedarwood perfumery essence that I have. It's dark, deep and incredibly velvety. But then I realised that I wasn't smelling a perfume per se, because normally cedarwood is a middle to base note and doesn't come through immediately after applying a perfume and more importantly, at that moment when I expected to smell a different note, what I was smelling simply wasn't there anymore. It did a vanishing act. I became rather perplexed and very curious. Twenty minutes later I felt as though I was sitting in a cedarwood forest on a warm sunny day. Wow! The perfume seemed to be all around me rather than on me.
When I smelled my skin I had to bury my nose before I got the delicious warm clean scent that reminded me of rain on skin. How incredibly sexy!
This morning I wore it to the shops. I was standing at the checkout when the woman mentioned an amazing perfume she was smelling and she asked was it me. I told her the name and she said she was going to ask her husband to buy it for her for Christmas. I told her that Kate Moss, Gwen Stefani and Ellie Goulding deem it their love potion and that it consists of just one ingredient, an aroma molecule so complex that the body can only metabolize it very slowly so that it seems to vanish and then re-appear hours later. I told her that it is supposed to have a pheromonal like effect on men if you are a woman and on women if you are a man. She told me to turn around, there were five men standing in the queue behind me...even though the other checkout on the other side of the shop was obviously free!!!
She picked up a pen and paper...'what's it called again?'. As I was leaving I noticed that she was still smelling the air with her eyes closed. "I'll want to be smelling that all day" she said.
