Product description from Escentric Molecules

Molecule 02 consists of the molecule Ambroxan pure and singular.

Ambroxan has a subtle sensual quality with a radiant, long-lasting drydown.

It is a crystal with a 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 that 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. "It has a fresh, almost mineral quality," says perfumer Geza Schoen, "that lingers into the drydown".

Escentric Molecules portables are 30ml fragrances that slot into sleek, minimalist cases for maximum portability. Each metal case is blasted with stainless steel 'sand' to burnish the surface to a soft lustre. It is then anodised for high durability.

Arrived in perfect condition and super excited to try a brand not easily available in NZ! Love that it was able to get a second life instead of being thrown away!

Absolutely love buying from Second Skin. Always exciting to see what’s new on the website and when I inevitably find something I want it’s shipped and delivered by the next day even though I’m in the South Island! Thanks so much for this great initiative + great customer service

Megan J.

I was a bit nervous buying such a high-value product over resale but I couldn't be happier. Arrived overnight beautifully packaged and in its original box.

Georgia M.

I had been eyeing up this palette on the brand's website for the longest time, but had never gotten around to actually purchasing it. Lo and behold it was then featured on Second Skin, and at a great price! Couldn't have asked for more!

Brittany H.

I love second skin, I have made so many purchases! So many great deals, amazing communication with the team, and best part is shipping is so quick!

Arrived totally brand new in its stunning packaging! Sadly the scent isn’t for me, but it was great to be able to try the product at a reduced price! Cheers!
