Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.

I bought my first 'molecule' at the height of the general craze. Good thing it was a thirty, not a whole liter. I still haven't been able to use it up completely. It really enhances the sillage and makes fleeting scents more noticeable, as if adding volume. So, please, don't repeat my mistake - don't mix Molecule 01 with Dior Poison at work. It's simply a catastrophe, a real threat to those around you, as if spraying something dangerous. These purple notes fly everywhere and create an atmosphere that leaves no chance for comfort. And so, all day long 😅

On vacation, I suddenly craved something special-dry hay warmed by the sun. I walked into a store I came across, it was Brocard, and told them what I was looking for. They sprayed a molecule on a blotter for me. I put it in my bag, not understanding the point, as the scent immediately disappeared. An hour later, when I got home and reached for a handkerchief, I suddenly smelled wood, like in a warm forest under the summer sun. And, oh miracle, it was that very blotter! That's how I discovered Molecule 01. Since then, this fragrance has become one of my favorites for autumn and winter

I searched for this fragrance for a long time, such a light sweet haze of lilac, a translucent veil… Before, I didn't understand it, didn't feel it, but now I realize I can't live without it 🌸

Perfume cyber-futurism! On me, this fragrance feels very intimate, as if it emphasizes my neatness and purity. When there's too much information in my head and I want to feel comfortable, this scent is simply perfect. I give it 9 out of 10! I'll definitely try the other fragrances from this line, curious to see how they perform among the four ))

This fragrance truly surprises. The vanilla here smells very pleasant, and the chocolate adds a light sweetness. As a gourmand, I appreciate such nuances. But the dry woody notes that appear later are a bit confusing. Overall, the impression is positive, there's something captivating about it

This molecule is barely noticeable on the skin. It's so light and airy, with woody notes, as if it slips away. But overall, quite pleasant)))

The fragrance is truly delightful, it's light and unobtrusive, doesn't overwhelm the nose, and its sillage is soft and pleasant. This freshness is unique; it's not floral, not citrusy, and not even aquatic. Just something of its own, special 🌿

This fragrance is one of my favorites. It doesn't have a strong, pronounced scent, but rather a light sillage reminiscent of fluffy spruce needles, slightly powdered. The sensuality of this scent is surprising in its subtlety

This scent is hard to describe. It's truly unusual and magical. Everyone has their own preferences, and that's normal. Sometimes it can "overwhelm" with its charm, and sometimes it just disappears as if it was never there. But if it wants to, it will return without warning. This fragrance is playful and unpredictable, which, in my opinion, makes it especially interesting. Every time it unfolds in a new way, and that's definitely a joy

There have always been debates in the world: is the Earth flat, did Americans land on the Moon, do parallel worlds exist? Similarly, there's a heated discussion about whether the famous Molecule has a scent. I decided to order a sample of this fragrance from the Rendezvous website and waited a long time for it to "rest" after its journey. I hoped to finally smell that unique scent, available only to the chosen few. But, alas! My nose, it seems, isn't among the lucky ones. No miracle happened. I didn't catch anything! Just emptiness on my wrist! I tried applying it under different conditions, but the result was always the same. I used the sample to the last drop, but still didn't smell anything, and I really wanted INSPIRATION(((

This Molecule 01 just took over me, and now I'm even a little scared of it. It's latched on so tightly, it won't let go. Of all the Molecules I've tried, this one is probably the strongest. Escentric 04 is good too, of course, but it doesn't compare to this power!!! I'm completely confused about the dosage. One spray - and I feel it constantly. But people around me don't seem to shy away))) It smells very stylish and modern, like all the ones and twos. Woody and coniferous notes are clearly at the forefront here

I tried this fragrance, the feeling isn't bad, but nothing outstanding. I don't understand why there's so much hype around it 🤷‍♀️

This fragrance reminds me of some kind of light chemical stench, like freshly laundered linen. Honestly, I absolutely don't like such smells. As a fragrance lover, I prefer floral and fruity notes that give a sense of mystery and tenderness, rather than reminding me of laundry

the fragrance evokes mixed feelings. it's light, but at the same time leaves a strange impression. it reminds me of freshness, like freshly laundered clothes, but with a synthetic undertone that bothers me. when I smell it, I remember breathing mountain air at a sanatorium - there's something to it, but not quite it<br><br>it seems to be made for men who are rushing to work and don't want to bother with choosing clothes. put on the cleanest shirt and spray it with this fragrance - and there you go, you're ready. no one will notice that you didn't put effort into your look. overall, it's a funny and slightly strange choice that definitely won't leave anyone indifferent

This fragrance didn't impress me at all. As soon as I applied it to my hand, I immediately caught only a faint woody smell that disappears in literally five minutes. I tried to sniff the spot where I sprayed it, but there was nothing left there either. Sometimes, though, a light scent reminiscent of toothpaste slips through, but it also quickly fades. Honestly, I don't understand how one can enjoy this smell. And for such money, in my opinion, it's simply not justified
