Created by Geza Schoen
Molecule 01 + Iris by Escentric Molecules is a Woody fragrance for women and men. Molecule 01 + Iris was launched in 2021. The nose behind this fragrance is Geza Schoen. “It’s not easy to describe iris’ smell as such, but if you smell a fragrance without it, and then with it, you understand immediately what it does. It adds a creamy powderiness. It brings a physical dimension to a fragrance. I have had a long-standing love affair with iris. Every Escentric fragrance has an iris notesomewhere in there. To me, iris is luxury. The iris pallida absolue I’ve used here is one of the most expensive ingredients in perfumery. You can find iris extracts for way less than that. But they do not have the great and subtle beauty of this absolue. It’s radical to put this much in a fragrance. The sillage is fantastic. This is a bomb, but a subtle bomb.” Geza Schoen

Community members appreciate Molecule 01 + Iris as a refined, subtle iris fragrance that works best when layered with other scents. While praised for its unique take on iris, it's considered too delicate to wear alone and has limited performance as a standalone fragrance. The scent appeals primarily to iris lovers willing to experiment with layering.
