Maison Crivelli Papyrus Moléculaire

A powdery, woody-spicy reinterpretation of papyrus and tobacco

Papyrus Moléculaire evokes an unexpected encounter: the discovery of papyrus root powder in the company of women smoking cigarillos. The fragrance opens with fresh, green and mineral twists of papyrus and carrot seed, backed by a coriander boost and smoky undertones of amyris. It evolves into a confident skin-signature of peppery tonka and tobacco-leather depth, built on rich sandalwood. 

This scent is bold yet elegant—rather than a purely sweet or smoky fragrance, it offers a refined contrast between light, powdery woods and darker tobacco/leather accents.

Why You’ll Love It

• Unique Signature: Papyrus signals something rarer than vetiver-wood, whilst the pepper-tonka-tobacco combination gives longevity and character.

• Layered Complexity: From fresh mineral top notes to woody, smoky depth, the scent evolves beautifully—perfect for wearers who enjoy discovery.

• Unisex Appeal: The balance between green freshness and warm woods makes it a versatile fragrance for any gender.

Usage Tips

• Apply to pulse points (neck, cuffs, behind ears) and allow the fragrance to breath—avoid rubbing to preserve the powdery-woody texture.

• Ideal for transitional seasons (spring ↔ fall) when green/woody scents shine—yet strong enough for evening wear too.

• Store in a cool, dark place to maintain the integrity of its fresh-mineral top notes and rich base.
