Molecule 01 + Iris does exactly what it says on the tin, it’s a very simplistic and straightforward scent and executed very well. Obviously this fragrance is dominated by an explosion of synthetic yet incredibly smooth and sensual Iso E Super, this is where the fantastically addictive component of the scent derives. The orris root then adds two distinct contrasting scent profiles from here; firstly is the subtle powdery, creamy and almost buttery nature that we all associate with orris, and secondly is the dry, earthy and slightly grassy aspect of the orris root which we often don’t see in most fragrances. You can’t hate on this scent for its simplicity, because it achieves exactly what it sets out to to - it’s not trying to be complex. This is a perfect scent when you’re in one of those moods that you just want to smell clean and sophisticated, when you feel like taking a day off from wearing perfume (but you’re obviously not that crazy).
The perfume that made me love iris again. Although there are more complex and more beautiful iris scents, this i would recommend to anyone who is averse to the note.
