Pigmentarium Genesis is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Jakub F. Hiermann. Genesis opens with Bay Leaf and Aldehydes, settles into a heart of Lily of the Valley, Apple, and Lemon Verbena, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Rosewood, and Fig Leaf. Pigmentarium's Genesis carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

Genesis is a divisive, almost abstract green scent. It's either a beautiful, fresh-cut garden or something akin to a construction site or even eczema. Definitely one to sample first to see if your skin chemistry plays ball.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its fresh, clean, and relatively subtle projection makes it ideal for casual wear and the office, where it won't overwhelm. The lack of strong projection and generally non-romantic notes make it less suitable for formal events or intimate dates.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bay laurel Laurus Nobilis Leaf Oil from Bay Leaf
  • 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 opens with a sparkling blast of aldehydic bay leaf and lemon verbena, giving a clean, almost 'cleaning product' vibe that quickly morphs. The heart reveals a crisp, realistic green apple and delicate lily of the valley, settling into a musky, amber-kissed base of earthy fig leaf and rosewood. It's a transparent, verdant aroma, leaning more towards an artistic interpretation of 'green' than a literal one.
