In the past decade, a lot of new hadrons containing heavy quarks were discovered which do not fit into the scheme provided by the traditional quark models. Such states are known as the XYZ states and they are conventionally referred to as exotic ones. At present, there is no consensus on their nature, and different models and approaches have been suggested to explain their unusual properties. The talk is devoted to a brief overview of the molecule model for such exotic states.
