Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Spring Fall

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Given its 'beast mode' performance and strong projection, this scent is a bit much for a formal office setting but perfect for dates and evening casual outings. The aromatic and woody accords lend themselves to versatility, offering a confident presence.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Genesis Homme opens with an invigorating burst of violet leaf, crisp apple, and bright citrus, quickly tempered by a subtle sweetness. The heart introduces a sophisticated blend of aromatic lavender, creamy sandalwood, and earthy patchouli, with a hint of spicy anise. The dry down is a warm, musky embrace of oakmoss, amber, and tonka bean, leaving a lasting impression of refined masculinity.
