The most minimal fragrance is a single aroma-molecule: Molecule 01. The next most minimal adds 1 to 01: 01 + 1. This is Molecule +.

The M+ line adds +1 to Iso E Super, the super aroma-molecule that turned the cloistered world of perfumery upside down. 

Molecule 01 + Patchouli consists of Iso E Super + Patchouli. 

Iso E Super is an abstract synthetic molecule characterised as a cedarwood note with a warm, velvety cocooning sensation. 

Patchouli is a natural extract from the leaves of the patchouli plant. 

A minimal fragrance for maximum impact. Let M+ Patchouli take you for a whiff of the wild side of modern perfumery that will keep admirers second-guessing what you're thinking and wearing. M+ Patchouli is an innovative reimagining of the classic patchouli note enlivened with Molecule 01 with bewitching notes of cedarwood intermingled with the softness of Patchouli Coeur. 

"Patchouli is a unique natural. Unlike 99% of perfume ingredients, we associate it with a particular period, the sixties and seventies and that bohemian spirit. It has a cool, rather aloof woodiness to it, and I love it for its moody beauty. 

I've used two qualities of patchouli here. The biggest chunk is Patchouli Coeur, a very clean, soft patchouli oil fraction with the camphor-like topnote removed. I have also included a patchouli oil from Indonesia to round it out with a little bit of a topnote. The result is a sophisticated, clean patchouli that pairs fantastically well with Molecule 01," says Geza Schoen. 

This dark, moody beauty, with a musky-earthy aroma profile, blends two qualities of patchouli with the seductive insouciance of Iso E Super, wrapping you in warmth and hovering around you the whole day. 

Molecule 01 + Patchouli is available in a travel-friendly 30ml edition to satiate all your spritz-on-the-go needs.

Alexander ★★★★★

The dry-down is pure Iso E Super, that velvety cedar-vibe that stays close to the skin for hours. Sprayed it on before work and could still catch whiffs of it at dinner. Patchouli gives it just enough grounding without turning heavy.

Daniel ★★★★★

I was skeptical that a single molecule could hold up as a scent, but this one layers beautifully with my usual routine, and the patchouli note lingers just long enough to keep it interesting. It’s subtle, but people have actually asked what I’m wearing.

Joseph ★★★★★

The patchouli gives it just enough grounding that the Iso E Super doesn't feel like it evaporates into nothing. I keep catching whiffs of it hours later and it's completely changed how I think about minimal scents.
