Escentric 05

Escentric 05 presents a refined, aromatic woody scent with a fresh, herbal opening dominated by bergamot, fig, and rosemary, leading into a soft, musky base defined by cashmeran and iso e super. The fragrance evokes a Mediterranean forest with its green, resinous, and slightly sweet layers — earthy, woody, and quietly elegant. It carries a balanced, unisex character that feels both modern and natural, though the notes fade quickly on the skin. While the initial burst of citrus and herbal aromatics is pleasant and coherent, most find the drydown to be subtle and lingering rather than commanding, with a faint floral sweetness from iris and a distinct cashmeran presence that becomes more apparent over time. The scent persists gently, with moderate projection and a lightweight sillage, making it ideal for daily wear in warmer seasons, particularly summertime or cool spring days. A strong performer when layered with Molecule 05, it unlocks deeper harmony, amplifying its woody and resinous depth. Some find it too understated or too synthetic, especially those sensitive to addictive synthetic notes like cashmeran, while others appreciate its honesty and artistry.
