Launched in 2020 by Escentric Molecules, Molecule 05 is a Woody Aromatic fragrance for women and men. Created by Geza Schoen, this composition explores the qualities of its aroma-molecule through a minimalist approach that focuses on amplifying key elements.

Molecule 05 is a proof of the brand’s commitment to celebrating perfumery as the art of chemistry.
