What wearers say

“This perfume is SO GOOD! It’s my first Eccentric Molecules perfume, and I think it’s amazing. The opening is zesty, fruity, and bright. The opening reminds me of a lot of other lemon-limey perfumes like Light Blue, and Mac Turquatic.The mid and the dry down is SO GOOD I love it. I don’t know why some people complain about its strength. I think it’s very strong! It does NOT smell like bug spray like some people said, not at all. It smells like a really good, summer time perfume.It’s not masculine, it’s perfectly unisex.”

“E05 starts off with a bright citrusy opening, followed with florals that give it a big sunny boost. It feels very summerish and lively on the skin.In the drydown you start to feel that Geza Schon ES DNA, when ISO E SUPER and Ambroxan collide. Its musky, a bit mineral and salty.its deffo Unisex summer frag.”
A member of a leading fragrance community
“To my nose, Escentric 05 has a VERY similar spicy cardamom-like thing going on that totally reminds me of Costume National Homme. It starts to appear about 20 minutes in and lasts for a good 45 minutes before it begins to wane somewhat. Anybody else get this striking similarity? That said, I have to say, I'm glad it has this similarity as I have always loved Costume National Homme.”

Sillage

The clone has slightly shorter longevity (4-5 hours vs 6-7 hours on skin) and reduced sillage, with a more straightforward scent trajectory. The original's complex interplay between the synthetic molecules and citrus notes feels somewhat simplified in the clone version.
