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 + Champaca consists of Iso E Super + Champaca.
Iso E Super is an abstract synthetic molecule characterised as a
cedarwood note with a warm, woody, velvety cocooning sensation.
Champaca is an absolute extracted from the red champaca flower,
found only in India. One of the most expensive ingredients in
perfumery, champaca absolute is one of the richest, most faceted
floral materials in perfumery, with shades of jasmine and orange
blossom, touches of tea, and a soft creaminess that unfolds in
waves.
Together, Iso E Super and champaca form an unexpected harmony: the
weightless transparency of Iso E Super against the intricate
opulence of champaca. A radiant opening with hints of orange
blossom brightness gives way to a heart that is lush, floral,
woody, and quietly intoxicating, before settling into the smooth,
woody embrace of Molecule 01.
"I was overwhelmed when I first smelled champaca absolute with
Molecule 01. Champaca absolute and Iso E Super form an amazing
amalgamation, because they are very contrary. Champaca absolute has
so many facets. It's so rich. There's so much happening in it. The
complexity of champaca absolute complements Iso E Super
exceptionally well on its own. Because Iso E Super has these very
woody yet transparent, very velvety, very cocooning, soft aspects,
and then you have champaca, giving it all this complexity, all
these different olfactory sensations" says Geza Schoen.
M+ Champaca is an opulent yet weightless fragrance, where the
multidimensional facets of champaca entwine with the velvety ease
of Iso E Super, leaving a luxuriously luminous trail that lingers
with quiet elegance.
