For lovers of ball sports 
and those who don’t play by the rules

Orange blossom absolute, leather and musk. A scent that flouts perfumery convention (no top or middle notes) - made solely of base notes.

Defies authority. Doesn’t conform. Plays for meaning, not for score. Leads from own path, with tender heart. Not here for likes. Not here for follows. Works Hard. Plays Harder. Hard to catch. Harder to forget.

An ornate tobacco leather with a hint of intoxicating tobacco bloom, as well as fresh leaves.

Montabaco is part of the Four Corners of the Earth collection and represents Latin America, the land where tobacco originated.

The perfumer conjures the original jungle encounters between natives and the sailor-explorers (who were totally oblivious to the magic of tobacco at that point). This is a novel interpretation of a tobacco-themed perfume, invoking lush green shadows full of parrot cries, mysterious blooms, and adventure.

The elixir is also exceptionally concentrated, at 42%. Hence the 'intensivo' in the title.

Over millions of years, persistent rainwater gnaws at porous limestone, carving out karsts deep within the earth. Carried in droplets, sediment grows upon itself, forming misshapen statues. The stalagmites and stalactites reach for one another, patient in the knowledge that one day they will meet. No sunlight breaches these cavern walls, but something has. Somewhere in time, a family of olms, aquatic salamanders, wandered into the limestone cave and never re-emerged. Generations in darkness have stripped the olms of colour and sight. Pale and blind they wait, sometimes for years, for the subterranean river to deliver a meal of larvae or shrimp to their murky abode.

Close your eyes and follow Zoologist Olm into a cavern of sensory delight. Aromachemicals float in mineral water, flowing into a dewy limestone passage that shimmers with algae and amber, stirring up earthy sandalwood and musks. Olm is not seen. Olm is felt. Let this unique fragrance awaken something deep within you.

More is less. Orchestrated with just three main ingredients. One: Iso-e-Super (with its sensation of soft, transparent wood). Two: white amber (with its comforting, almost skin-like warmth). Three: orange (lavishly applied). The effect: a warm/fresh velvetiness that intensifies the longer it lives on the skin.

About Escentric 01 by Escentric Molecules

How does Escentric 01 differ from the fragrances listed here?
Escentric 01 is defined by its transparent woody floral musk composition dominated by iso-e-super, pink pepper, lemon, and orris root, creating a fresh yet powdery and subtle scent. The listed fragrances share iso-e-super but vary widely in additional notes, ranging from animalic, leathery, or spicy to fresh, mineral, or fruity accords, offering different interpretations and intensities.
What is iso-e-super and why is it important in these fragrances?
Iso-e-super is a synthetic woody note known for its smooth, velvety, transparent woodiness with subtle amber nuances. It contributes to a distinctive skin-like warmth and radiance in fragrances, often acting as a signature or base note that enhances other ingredients.
Are these fragrances suitable for those who like fresh woody scents?
Several of these fragrances incorporate fresh woody elements alongside iso-e-super, such as Montabaco, Olm, Panda, and Orange Crush. While some have additional spicy, animalic, or sweet facets, many offer a fresh, clean woody character similar to the transparent quality found in Escentric 01.
