Milky papyrus, tobacco and a leather accord
Papyrus Moléculaire is an Eau de Parfum by Maison Crivelli, created with perfumer Leslie Girard and released in 2020. Its starting point is an encounter with tattooed women smoking cigarillos and weaving papyrus leaves. The brand sets milky, powdery papyrus against deep tobacco, and a decant is a good way to judge such a contrast.

The composition
These notes are recorded without a pyramid.
On the skin
The brand names seven materials rather than a pyramid: coriander, papyrus, sandalwood and black pepper essential oils, tonka bean absolute, tobacco absolute and a leather accord. Because they come as one list, a sample shows which of them you smell first on your own skin.
The brand describes papyrus as milky, woody and powdery, set against a deep, rebellious tobacco. That tension is the heart of the scent, soft against dark. Coriander and black pepper add dry spice, while tonka bean gives a smoother edge to the tobacco.
Sandalwood adds a creamy wood and the leather accord a faint, supple darkness. The brand places the perfume in the woody, powdery, spicy family. The drydown is where you find out whether the milky side or the dark side stays closer to the skin for you.
Testing it
Wear the decant on a cool day, on clean skin, and take your time with it. The perfume is at a 15% concentration, so a light application is enough. Notice the papyrus first, then the spice and tobacco, and try it once at work and once in the evening, since it suits both settings.
For people who like woody, powdery and spicy scents with a trace of tobacco and leather, and who enjoy a perfume with a story. It is unisex and suits daily wear and the office, especially in autumn and winter. It will interest anyone curious about papyrus as a perfume note.
Papyrus is an unfamiliar note for most people, and tobacco and leather accords can feel very different from one skin to the next. The decant is filled by FragranceGems from the original 100 ml bottle and labelled by us. It is not a brand sample, and Maison Crivelli is not involved.

A 10 ml decant in a glass spray vial, filled by FragranceGems from the original Maison Crivelli bottle and labelled by us. It is not a brand sample, and the house is not involved.
The brand describes it as milky, woody and powdery. In this perfume it is balanced by tobacco, spices and leather, so a sample is the best way to meet it.
An Eau de Parfum at 15%, according to the brand. It sits in the woody, powdery, spicy family, so a light application is enough for a test.
Leslie Girard, with whom Maison Crivelli created the scent. The house was founded in France in 2018 and describes the perfume as woody, powdery and spicy.
The brand
Maison Crivelli starts every perfume from something its founder actually lived: Thibaud Crivelli sipping hibiscus tea in a gemstone market, finding passion fruit in an oud forest, crossing saffron fields in fog. The independent Paris house turns each scene into an extrait de parfum or an eau de parfum built on a contrast, fruit against oud, flower against leather. Contrasts are personal, which is why a 10 ml decant on your own skin is the place to start.

Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
