The most minimal fragrance is a single aroma-molecule: Molecule 01. The next most
minimal adds 1 to 01: 01 + 1. This is Molecule +.
The M+ line adds +1 to Iso E Super, the super aroma-molecule that turned the cloistered
world of perfumery upside down.
Molecule 01 + Clary Sage consists of Iso E Super + Clary Sage.
Iso E Super is an abstract synthetic molecule characterised as a cedarwood note with a
warm, woody, velvety cocooning sensation.
Clary sage is a biennial herb, native to the Mediterranean and cultivated in southern France
for perfumery.
Used here in both oil and absolute form, it is a fresh, aromatic plant note with a distinctive
fruity, herbal brightness. Clary sage contains naturally occurring linalyl acetate, giving it a
crisp, airy freshness, alongside floral nuances that recall blooming elderflower. It is complex
yet unsweet, balancing herbal, floral and gently musky facets.
Together, Iso E Super and clary sage create a quietly charged contrast: the expansive,
transparent warmth of Iso E Super set against the fresh, aromatic lift of clary sage. The
fragrance opens with a clean, herbal brightness, softly floral and fruity notes, and settles into
the smooth, woody presence of Molecule 01, which carries clary sage through the drydown.
“Clary sage is fresh, herbal, floral. It's not sweet, but it's got that beautiful aromatic fruity part.
It has a very unique freshness, almost like an elderflower in bloom. When you put it with Iso
E Super, they simply work together. Clary sage has enough character to carry the fragrance
on its own, while Iso E Super gives it space, warmth and longevity. It’s effortless, easy to
wear and given the amount we have used, which is 10%, it extends through to the drydown,”
says perfumer Geza Schoen.
Molecule 01 + Clary Sage is an aromatic yet transparent fragrance, where fresh herbal
clarity meets velvety woods, creating an understated skin scent that feels relaxed, modern,
and quietly addictive.
