Escentric Molecules – Molecule 03

Eau de Toilette

Molecule 03 by Escentric Molecules features Vetiveryl Acetate, a distinctive and pure component. Vetiveryl Acetate is an intriguing hybrid molecule, combining natural and synthetic elements. It originates from a fraction of vetiver oil extracted from Indian grass roots, which is then treated with acetic acid to eliminate any harsh or leathery qualities. The outcome is a sophisticated molecule with the woody, subtly grassy essence of vetiver, yet remarkably smoother and gentler. Geza Schoen remarks, “Acetylation also enhances the grapefruit facet in vetiver, imparting a more pronounced bitter-fresh top note.”
