Ligyes Bleu de Gênes is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2026, created by Luca Maffei. Bleu de Gênes opens with Grapefruit, Cypress, and Lavender, settles into a heart of Broom, Lemon, Jasmine, and Thyme, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Patchouli, and Ambergris. Ligyes's Bleu de Gênes carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a proper wild card. Some reckon it's a unique masterpiece, others find it a bit jarring. Definitely a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent, so don't blind buy.

Scent Profile

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.

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

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

Other declarable allergens

  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender

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

Opens with a zingy grapefruit and clean cypress hit, soon joined by a surprising, honeyed broom flower and a whisper of aromatic thyme. It's a proper Mediterranean landscape in a bottle, settling into a grounding cedar and patchouli base, lifted by that intriguing, salty-sweet ambergris. It's complex, a touch raw, and distinctly earthy with a warm, floral heart.
