Pisces

Not a huge fan of Aventus or its DNA in general — though on certain moods, I'll reach for it. This one, however, changes the game entirely. You get that black currant upfront, reminiscent of Afnan's Supremacy line — intense, almost overwhelming in the opening, which isn't quite my thing. And like most Afnan releases, it carries that persistent synthetic quality throughout. That said, what comes after is where this fragrance earns its place. Once the black currant settles, something genuinely interesting unfolds: a sparkling, effervescent quality — almost like a margarita — followed by juniper berries that I've completely fallen for. There's something about that combination that quietly lifts my mood every time I wear it. It does retain a touch of that familiar Aventus sharpness in the background, but the smooth, fizzy accord with juniper softens and balances it beautifully — if you let it breathe and pay attention. Longevity is decent but not exceptional — it hugs close to the skin after about two hours, lingering there for another five or six. Projection is moderate at best, so don't expect it to announce your presence.

Nose Note #722 This may be my favourite in the line and honestly one of the best scents I've ever smelled. It's like some Hubba Bubba gum, but it's not gourmand. It's extremely easy to wear. I bought decants of this line and upon the first spray I immediately thought: "I'd definitely buy a full bottle". Take Platine Blanc or the Afternoon Swim DNA and center them around blackcurrant and juniper - you'll l get this. It's very distantly reminding me of Absolu Aventus, but this one is very unisex. You definitely get a clear note of patchouli in the drydown. High class, high quality. Upd. after 6 months: Funny that I haven't worked this out earlier, it smells so much like Aventus Absolu 9.5/10, just something very special

Wow! I reeeeeeally love this! It's for sure my hot summer fragrance now! Spritzy, zesty lime (margarita style), juniper berries and blackcurrant. This is for me fantastic! I would say it's totally unisex and is quite strong for such a citrus heavy fragrance. Have tried a few other Genesis perfumes now and this is by far the best! (Have tried gemini, aries, leo). They all have completely different vibes going on. If you like sparkling margaritas and juniper, then get this!

Not my zodiac sign but this one is extremely, extremely good. It's a fantastic twist on Aventus Absolu but it has its own distinct boozy-ish vibrant character which differs it. Shinichiro is such an amazing perfumer as well. Keep in mind however that it's not mass appealing. Some people told me I smell old man-ish (due to the vetiver), some as an air freshner, so it's not a safe blind buy.

As a Pisces, I appreciate the effort behind this perfume (they didn't rely on the usual, banal Pisces symbolism - they had the opportunity to make something unique, and they went for it - while at the same time staying true to the sign). I LOVE the margarita note in the opening. The perfume is fresh and spicy, sparkly, unisex.
