...one of my summer sweethearts...
Besides Clean Reserve-Citron Fig, the No. 2 fragrance I like to wear in summer. I admit that on very hot days, like this summer, I don't like to wear perfume. With this fragrance, however, it is different. Yes, I'll even go one step further. You could even wear it all year round.
How shall I put it now??? What do I love about the scents of Geza Schön? Or their molecular series?
Is it precisely this simplicity, this not complicated, this not so complex?
So can you take "ingenious simplicity" as a guarantor for it or does it devalue him?
NO, I don't think so.
I think perfumers with headaches are often sitting in the corner and pondering, what the hell else can they UNPACK with it..... does it always have to be?
Also a clear NO (and this does not mean that it is easy to create this kind of fragrances).
Sometimes things come out so absurd I grab my head.
Fragrances that smell of rust or blood.
Honestly, I think that's perverse.
And if you even sell something like that as "art", I literally get my gall up.
I also have a basic problem with the word "art".
If I've always heard that.
They're all artists.
The actor, the painter or draughtsman, the musician, the perfumer.
To me, an actor is an actor, a painter or draughtsman, a musician a musician and a perfumer a perfumer. I'm not an artist in my job. That someone can be talented in one or more things is true, but he is not an artist to me.

On the other hand, I have to say that I really like this fragrance.

It starts on my skin with pink pepper and joins grapefruit quite quickly, if not at lightning speed. Always with the light mist of javanol.

Thank you again, Mr. Schön!

Super different
My all time favorite perfume. Very different from other perfumes. Geza Schoen is a non conformist! I like his style of perfumes.
Escentric-Molecule 04 = Fresh grapefruit squeezed on a metal bar and some beautiful cozy sandalwood in the background... Sounds weird, but it's awesome

Scented dress begins fresh-herb and ends deep-woody
One of the most interesting fragrances for my senses. He first comes across as fresh and bitter and somehow very straight - a statement. Sometime after a good half hour a transformation occurs. It gets woody together, warmer, a rose sticks out her head very carefully, only very little to steal nobody else the show ....
Vanilla rounds off this fragrance. This fragrance creates in the morning sprayed on me a good mood feeling and I breathe deeply through - hey be greeted me new day - arrived in the office my companion is enveloping, with warm mood, it underlines exactly this side of my personality which makes me, not intrusive but present and special. This well balanced woody note is beautiful in combination with the slight bitterness of grapefruit. I don't think I need to mention that he is super good at holding and compliments are safe with the companion

It's great, but you passed out after a year?
Last year in summer I bought a bottle of Escentric 04 and found it to be a great summer scent! It is super-citric, a bit bitter, but at the same time wonderfully fluffy and light, with a woody base. In the course of time it becomes softer and lasts for a citric fragrance super long
This summer I sprayed the scent on again and found it somehow funny right away. Hmm, did I really like it that much last year? Somehow there was a musty note from the beginning, hard to describe, somehow "grandma's handbag". In the further course, but unfortunately only over several hours, the impression increasingly settled and in the drydown the smell was then again completely the old one.

So I dug out my old Escentric Discovery set from the bottom drawer and tested both versions against each other in the left and right crook of my arm. In fact - the scent from the test tube smelled as light and fresh as I remembered it, but the scent from my bottle always smelled musty even after further tests.

I know this effect from 10 (or more) year old vintage perfumes, but after only one season - I've never experienced anything like it. I'd be interested to know if someone else has also observed this phenomenon.

4th time is the charm?
I wasn't a fan of 1, 2, or 3, but the different take on sandalwood using javanol made this one full bottle worthy. Please check out my review on YouTube :)

Chill grapefruit-juniper breeze supported by the omnipresent sandalwood, that slowly warm up on the skin into a lovely flowery-incensy-musk.
