Brought it a few years back. Dismissed it as a scent for me and therefore sold it. Last Saturday I went around my local danish version of Boots thinking what was it that made me turn my back to it in the first place? Conclusion: stupidity! It’s gorgeous! How can I not have realized in the first place. I still wonder..

This is a pleasant slightly feminine skin scent with zero sillage after only 10-15 minutes. It doesn’t projects. It is nice scent but nobody will be able to smell it except if they rub their nose on your skin. Not even yourself can smell it without sticking your nose on your skin. I’ve tried it, I’ve asked some friends if they can smell anything and the answer was negative. Even a female friend with very strong nose, she couldn’t smell it.
Verdict.
This scent has no reasons of existance. I like it, very safe and versatile, but it feels like you don’t wear scent. Save your money and buy a decent scent.

I grew up close to Denmark (Northern Germany) and I love the Nordic culture/mindset/landscape – everything. I was so intrigued when I tried Wooden Chips and the Pink Molecule (which does not suit me at all..). I LOVE this perfume so much it is so fresh without being weirdly too citrus-y. The kind sales associate called it a “sexy forest” scent and I second that. I would add: mysterious, sexy Nordic forest.
Longevity on my dry dry skin (which usually eats perfume quickly..): 5h MAX but usually 3-4h. Not soo good but it is a rather soft scent which I can easily wear to the office without people suffocating. I also love it for the evening because of the mysterious woody undertones of this perfume. Develops beautifully and leaves a soft muskiness scent mixed with green-special elements.
Sillage: pretty low. I usually do not spray too much with other perfumes at once but I literally shower myself in this. I like to reapply every now and then with this perfume. It refreshes my mind every time and calms me at night. Not a party, evening scent (except you wish for an extra calming scent), except you are somewhere tropical and hot.

This is funny one and not least because of the instant reminders of Escentric molecules and the minimal/Lazy perfume design of the ultra modern era.
I’m not a lover of the vague woodiness of some of these fragrances but not apposed to the use of these techniques or molecules either, I’m just yet to find one that really speaks to me.
This has an air of Iso E super about it just in approach perhaps? I mean it’s distinctly different , a hard to pigeonhole opening of citrus, then some indiscriminate woods one could describe as cedar but there’s a warmth and a bit of muskiness too. It did get a little woodier as it dried down becoming more worthy of the ‘Wooden Chips’ name and increasingly like a subtle sandlewood but decidedly less spicy. I can’t say I get an earthy, patch or oud vibe from this just a weakly disappointing and suspicious skin scent. I’m often worried about being very strong to others and I can barely detect. Don’t get me wrong I like my perfumery arty, avant garde and interesting but without tipping over into pretentiousness and Zarkoperfume Molecule No.8 is something that maybe does do that.
I don’t want nondescript, committee made scents from trendy Scandinavian houses just for the sake of it. I want pieces of art, compositions that are slaved over by perfumers who treat their ‘baby’ with all the due care and attention they deserve.
I’m just not that taken by No.8 and having tried the whole line, this isn’t the worst or the best. Blandness seems to be a theme of Zarko…shame really.
