Description

Molecule 02 consists of the molecule Ambroxan pure and singular.

Ambroxan is a crystal-chemical structure identical to the ambrox derived from ambergris. For  centuries ambergris was perhaps the most prized ingredient in perfumery. It is a somewhat  mysterious substance expelled by the cachalot or sperm whale, which only attains its fine scent  after a long maturation floating in the ocean.

Ambergris is rarely found these days, and the 'amber' in a modern fragrance will be a lab-created  equivalent of some of the aroma-molecules that make up its scent. By far, the finest of these is  the nature-identical molecule, Ambroxan. Ambergris was always valued for its refinement as  well as its sensuality. This quality persists in Ambroxan. 

Ambroxan was isolated from plant sources in 1950. 

The maximum percentage that can be dissolved in a fragrance compound is 13.5%. Any more,  and it begins to crystallise out of the solution. Most fragrances with 'amber' contain 1-2%. 

Molecule 02 is 100% Ambroxan in alcohol and a little water. This is best described as a fresh,  almost mineral smoothness, which subtly expands to envelop you in olfactive layers of sensuous,  sparkling molecules. 

Come-hither, velvety, skin-like and broodingly complex, Ambroxan, on its own, is an elixir of  some facility. Shop Molecule 02 to get this magic potion, perfect for a midnight rampage.
