(so I never could smell any of the Ecsentric Molecules nor Narciso Rodriguez's 'For Her' ... with White Musk) (rather 'Escentric Mulecules'...) [this is a very interesting article [in Fragrantica] which 'Transparantly' sums up all the facilities and specifics of the 'Aromatic Moleculary Compounds or Materials', Iso E Super, Ambroxan, Cashmeran, Hedione, Aldehydes. it is that I completely understand the esthetics of transparance, Air, Space, Texture in a fragrance which these Moleculary Materials infuses in the perfumes. you have circumscribed these esthetics well. even if I come from completely another direction in my perfume tastes I surely can appreciate the Art of Perfumery you have 'painted' (aquarelled, aquarelised) and the Notion of the "Air inbetween the Jasmine Petals" simply is breathtaking. it is just interesting to sketch how I stand into this and how I can still appreciate the taste of others in perfumery (something you learn only in gaining age, so it seems). Jean-Claude Ellena never made any impression on me. the Hermèssences I almost never could smell. neither the Les Jardins d'Hermès. I have always been a person for Maximalist perfumes with the perfumers Dominique Ropion, Alberto Morillas, Sophia Grojsman, Nathalie Lorson, Vero Kern, Pissara Umavijani, Jean Guichard, Jean-Jacques Diener (and all the perfumers behind the most notorious Hooker-perfumes of the 1980s), Maurice Roucel. then Pierre Montale, Mathilde Laurent, Thierry Wasser et al. another event is that I am fully anosmic to all Aroma Molecules, mentioned above. the Ecsentric [Escentric] Molecules I never smelled. neither the most of Narciso Rodriguez's perfumes. I simply smelled nothing. (neither did I smell a Presence, Absence, and fluctuating.) but you also describe the effect well that some of these molecules have, almost ex-aromatic, that they billow inside the perfume, Fill Out, create Space and making it a Living Canvas. Matvey already spoke of this also. I guess I can sense this effect without smelling extra Matter in the perfume. what I only want to say is that, if you also come from totally the opposite direction, your article invites to take notice of how much of an Effect these [Synthetic] perfume Accords can nevertheless, have. I am also anosmic to White Musk (I always think 'What the hell are they talking about') and a whole wagonload of Fruity Aspects. they fully fly me by. this never halted me in having strong preferences in favorite perfumes. indeed the Opulent, Heady, Floral, Asphyxiative, Dense & Alarmistic Presentist Whore Perfumes. this anosmia never relented. yet I have had a full perfumial trajectory. I agree with Donatella Versace who said about Minimalism: "Less is Less as far as I am concerned". yet you also gave a precision about what jean-Claude Ellena said about Minimalism. it was more sophisticated as how he perceived it. so while I love Dense, Opaque, Irreversible perfumes, your article was very informative and fun to read, as always. thank you very much Jernê !] (I tried to express the [for me] non-existence of this and these, perfumes.)
