The upper face of the Escentric 04 case lid is stamped with the letter
e in binary code: 01100101 and the number 04.

Javanol is a sandalwood-type molecule that retains the radiance and
endurance of natural sandalwood but is sheer and transparent like no
sandalwood in nature.

Escentric 04 focuses on Javanol in a formula that highlights the
grapefruit accent in the molecule.

The result is a uniquely fresh interpretation of a sandalwood fragrance,
fizzing with crisp, bitter topnotes of pink grapefruit peel with the added
zest of lime. Juniper and pink pepper give an extra shot of freshness, and
marijuana brings out the softer quality of the grapefruit pith.

The heart is orris with a 'fresh soft rose' composed of four different
rose ingredients. The drydown is balsamic and woody with Javanol in combination
with the somewhat sweeter sandalwood molecule, Polysantol.

"In the other Escentric fragrances, I used a huge amount of the Molecule,"
says Geza Schoen. "But Javanol is like truffles. A few slices of truffle
shaved on top of your pasta are enough to transport you to heaven."

Consequently, Javanol and Polysantol together make up 15% of Escentric 04.

Auf der Oberseite des Escentric 04 Gehäusedeckels ist der Buchstabe e im
Binärcode eingeprägt: 01100101 und die Zahl 04.

Javanol ist ein sandelholzähnliches Molekül, das die Ausstrahlung und
Beständigkeit von natürlichem Sandelholz beibehält, aber durchsichtig
und transparent ist wie kein Sandelholz in der Natur.

Escentric 04 konzentriert sich auf Javanol in einer Formel, die den
Grapefruit-Akzent des Moleküls hervorhebt.

Das Ergebnis ist eine einzigartig frische Interpretation eines
Sandelholzduftes, der mit knackigen, bitteren Kopfnoten von rosa
Grapefruitschalen und der zusätzlichen Schärfe von Limetten prickelt.
Wacholder und rosa Pfeffer sorgen für einen zusätzlichen Frischekick,
und Marihuana bringt die weiche Qualität des Grapefruitkerns zur Geltung.

Die Herznote ist Orris mit einer "frischen, weichen Rose", die aus vier
verschiedenen Rosenbestandteilen besteht. Der Drydown ist balsamisch und
holzig mit Javanol in Kombination mit dem etwas süßeren Sandelholzmolekül
Polysantol.

"In den anderen Escentric-Düften habe ich eine große Menge des Moleküls
verwendet", sagt Geza Schoen. "Aber Javanol ist wie Trüffel. Ein paar
gehobelte Trüffelscheiben auf Ihrer Pasta reichen aus, um Sie in den
Himmel zu versetzen."

Folglich machen Javanol und Polysantol zusammen 15% von Escentric 04 aus.

Escentric_Molecules

Escentric Molecules owes its existence to an aroma-molecule that does not exist in nature. Iso E Super was created in a laboratory at IFF in 1973. It remained unknown outside the world of perfumery until the launch of Escentric Molecules, though its elusive presence hovers at relatively low concentrations in the background of many fragrances for both men and women. Among perfumers, it is prized for its velvety, cocooning effect.

When perfumer Geza Schoen first smelt Iso E Super in isolation, something clicked. “I realised that the common denominator in all the fragrances I liked was that they contained a large dose of it. Iso E Super is highly unusual. You can never get enough of it. One sniff and you want the whole bottle. It’s like a drug.”

Schoen began to experiment, creating fragrances that contained Iso E Super in unheard-of proportions. One night he went further. Heading out for a drink with a friend, he suggested they spritz on nothing but the aroma-molecule itself.

The effect was immediate. No sooner had they sat down at a bar, than a woman came up to ask about their fragrance. As Schoen talked with her, it became clear that the connection between the fragrances she liked was also a large dose of Iso E Super. Schoen realised he was on to something.
His proposal was bold. He would create two fragrances in homage to this enigmatic attractant. One fragrance would contain an unprecedented 65% of the molecule. The rest of the formula would consist of ingredients designed to underscore its low-lit mood.

If this was a radical move, the second fragrance was totally non-conformist. It would contain only the molecule Iso E Super. “I thought, this one will appeal only to the artists, the freaks, the outsiders.”

He was wrong. From its launch in 2006, Escentric Molecules was a phenomenon. Schoen followed the first pair of fragrances, 01, with 02, 03, and in 2017, a fourth pair, Escentric Molecules 04. Each pair focuses on those rare aroma-molecules that have the radiance and depth of character to stand alone.
