Molecule 01 + Mandarin

A straightforward scent that captures the essence of pencil shavings infused with a vibrant, pulp-filled orange zest. Although it leaves a faint trail, its presence is consistently felt throughout the day, subtly whispering hints of its existence. This fragrance stands out for its distinctiveness and enjoyable character.

I concur with the prevailing opinion that this perfume is remarkably realistic. The scent is uncannily reminiscent of freshly rubbed mandarin peel on my skin, and its longevity leaves a lasting impression, persisting for approximately 15 hours after application.

I'm thoroughly enjoying this perfume. The initial notes of mandarin are incredibly refreshing, providing an invigorating opening that grabs your attention. I've worn it to work and was pleased to find that it lasted throughout the day without fading. Those who claim it doesn't last must not be familiar with its characteristics. Additionally, people around me have complimented on its pleasant aroma, making it suitable for a summer day, office setting, or as an all-around scent.

To my nose, this perfume embodies an uncanny tangerine aroma, punctuated by a crisp sharpness. I have a soft spot for it. While it does require liberal application to project effectively, its longevity surpasses typical citrus scents – albeit still limited to around two hours. If budget were not a concern, I would consider purchasing a full bottle of this fragrance.

The fragrance bears a strong resemblance to a wooden box infused with mandarin essence, accurately capturing the scent of citrus fruits. While not particularly innovative, this perfume's citrus profile is pleasant and enjoyable, and I occasionally blend it with other citrus fragrances to extend their staying power.
