Top notes: Iso E Super. Heart notes: guaiac wood, Iso E Super. Base notes: guaiac wood. Perfumer: Geza Schoen. Year of release: 2023. Molecule 01 + Guaiac Wood is the warmest and smokiest of the 2023 trio: guaiac wood, an extract of the heartwood of the palo santo tree, smells of smoke, whisky and creamy wood. Paired with Iso E Super, it seems to melt, turning into “emulsified smoke” — soft, enveloping, with a feeling of warmth by the fireplace in winter. This is not the heavy smoke of a bonfire, but a homely, cosy and sensual one. The fragrance was created for the cold season and for evenings when you want warmth and quiet: it wraps you like a woollen blanket, yet remains transparent and not stifling. Guaiac wood gives the composition character and depth, while the Iso E Super molecule makes it intimate — a fragrance felt above all up close.
