Details & care

What it is: A smooth, musky unisex fragrance that merges with your skin chemistry to create a personal scent signature.

Fragrance story: Molecule 05 consists of Cashmeran, pure and singular. Cashmeran is one of the greats of synthetic chemistry. Warm and woody, with a resinous pine note. It has an unusually complex character for a single molecule. It combines a cocooning, musky softness with a dry, aromatic woodiness and a sweet resinous pine note. Cashmeran was created in a laboratory at the IFF in the late 1970s. Molecule 05 is a scent that glorifies fragrance's undefinable magnetism and gives it its rightful due as a subtle yet requisite element in our lives that stimulates all the senses.

Style: Woody and aromatic

Notes: The Molecule 05 fragrance is radically minimalist. It contains no odorants except the aroma-molecule, Cashmeran. Those customers who find the Molecule fragrances too subtle may wish to try the Escentric fragrances, which will always have a more powerful diffusion.

Molecule 05
I was gifted a set of Molecules fragrances. Unfortunately I wasn't a fan at all of this scent which smells very mossy and damp to my nose though my friend likes it a lot. I also don't find any of these fragrances last or project unless used as layering perfumes. This is completely unisex.

Great smell
Having worked my way thru the discovery set this would be the one i would most likely buy from the E set. It has a lovely smell which seems to develop as your skin heats up. It reminds me of some of the older style fragrances its got a nice mix of citrus, herbs

he definition of understated elegance
MOLECULE 05 by Escentric Molecules is the definition of understated elegance. It revolves entirely around one single ingredient — cashmeran — yet somehow manages to feel incredibly complex and dynamic. On my skin, it’s warm, woody, and slightly salty, almost like sun-kissed skin after a day at the beach. It doesn’t shout, but people notice it. I’ve had several moments where someone leans in and says, “You smell really good, but I can’t quite place it.” That’s the charm of Molecule 05 — it feels like your own scent, amplified. It’s light, intimate, and incredibly wearable year-round. The projection is subtle, but it lingers close to the skin for hours, creating this soft aura that feels personal and comforting. I also love how it layers — it enhances other scents without ever clashing. If you're into minimalist fragrances that adapt to you and create a unique experience, this is absolutely worth trying.

Lovely clean smell
I have been using this for a while and it’s very different from my normal fragrances. It’s always in my handbag because it’s got a lovely, fresh, anytime scent. Even if I’m wearing another fragrance, even a quick spritz of this into the air seems to wake me up. I’m a rose, oud, tobacco and leather kind of person normally, this is none of those but it still smells good to me!
