Yes Molecule 01 is great, smells indeed like cedar, e.g. like pencil/crayon shavings, very soft cedar-like. Surprisingly I could smell it right away at first sniff (in contrast to The Body Shop White Musk, which I could not smell at all first time I tried it in a store). Planning to add Molecule 02 and 04 as well to my collection, if only as nose trainers. But Molecule 01 I enjoy wearing on its own, great soft scent! Planning to layer it with PDM Herod which I got today and find it with extremely poor longevity, eg. less than 2 hours seems pretty much gone. Might have some anosmia to that one? Will have to try it for a few days to see.

I'm an avid wet shaver, and one of my favorite soap/splash/EdT combos is 13 by Dr Jon's. The notes include ISO E Super, oud, hedione, and musk. It was my first exposure to ISO E Super, and is one of the few fragrances in the wet shaving world that I believe holds up as a unique experience on its own. I have used this scent more than anything else this last year, and is my "everyday" scent.

I just bought Sylvamber which contains 22% of iso gamma and mixed it 9:1 with cosmetic base water. Iso e super just contains 5% of isogamma. Isogamma is the stuff that activates the first of the 5 pheromone receptors, so the more you have, the more it gets the effect. I think of tuning in a little bit of hedione aswell. It also activates the pheromone receptors.

I'm no perfumer and my fragrance journey has only started a year ago, but here's what I can say about ISO E Super and Molecule 01: It's a commercial trade name in which there are many variations of it. Geza Schoen (the perfumer of Molecule 01) was asked why can't someone just make their own version of Molecule 01 and he responded that the ingredient he uses is not available for the public and that 'you just have to trust him on that'. That ingredient would be "Iso Gamma Super" and a couple self-taught perfumers have noted the difference, stating that the closest thing to "Iso Gamma Super" would be "Timbersilk", which is available to the public. I bought a sample of Molecule 01 from Luckyscent and I could smell it in the bag when I opened it. As I sprayed it on my skin, I couldn't smell it at first. But as I went to work (I do manual labor), I could smell a subtle, sweet woody smell. The trick to be active and not lounge around since it responds to body heat. Who knows, maybe other people did smell it when you can't but nobody talks about it or compliments it. That being said, you're better off getting a sample to see if it works. Those who buy the 'home-brewed' versions on eBay are probably going to be disappointed because you're dealing with a knockoff and not a real thing. Worst case scenario, you spent $6 sampling a fragrance that doesn't work on you. Best case scenario, you discovered you have a office-friendly fragrance to wear as more people are becoming allergic for a number of reasons.
