Not just for layering...

When I did not have the fragrance yet, I heard about it that it is suitable for layering.
I'm not a fan of layering, I don't like to create anything else because everything is already created for us.
Then during a visit to a perfumery, the dear saleswoman made me aware of this fragrance and also with emphasis on layering. I got the sample, but until I understood the fragrance, it took a couple of months, especially if you do not own only one fragrance.
Finally, the day came when I wanted to test the fragrance spontaneously. I found it interesting : quiet and loud at the same time. My jacket smelled still 2 weeks after the fragrance.
It's hard to describe what it smells like : woody, dry, spicy.
When you talk about Sytnetic as an ingredient in the fragrance, it tends to come across as negative. But when you read that Genetic Bliss is a unique composition of five pure Molécules, the fragrance is then not viewed so critically.
To me it is actually Molécule, Sytnetic...not so important.
Only what matters : the power of the fragrance. I have tried him of course to layer, several times with different fragrances.
And always the Genetic Bliss comes to the fore. I smell it out of other fragrances, it dominates very strongly.
That's why he is for me personally an independent fragrance that is not ONLY suitable for layering

The magic of a molecular fragrance

Summer was coming to an end and the days were slowly getting shorter and cooler. So I thought it was time for a few new fragrances for the cold season. My first port of call, as so often, was this wonderful EssenceVitae community! And while I was working my way through the countless great and informative threads in the forum, the Genetic Bliss was mentioned again and again. Hmmm...I thought to myself, a synthetic woody fragrance? Sounds interesting and the fragrance notes were promising.

So I initially ordered a bottle of this rather expensive fragrance. Greetings go out at this point to user TheScenter, who wrote to me directly and offered me a 5ml sample.

What can I say - it was love at first sniff! And so it happened that I was able to get hold of the small 27ml bottle of Genetic Bliss here in the souk. Greetings to Hanismells go out as well :)

Well then - here it is in front of me. This beautiful, minimalist black bottle from 27 87 Perfumes. Genetic Bliss was released in 2018 - but the big breakthrough has yet to come.

27 87 Perfumes is a perfume brand that specializes in the creation of unique and high-quality fragrances. The brand originates from Barcelona and was founded by perfumer Romy Kowalewski. The name "27 87" refers to the geographical coordinates of Formentera, an island in the Balearic Islands, which Romy Kowalewski uses as a source of inspiration for her fragrances.

To my knowledge, Genetic Bliss is the only pure molecule fragrance in their small perfume collection. The latest masterpiece from 2787 Perfumes. The olfactory interpretation of uniqueness, captured in a hypermodern fragrance statement. It is the fragrance that stands out from the crowd. The eccentric. The "black sheep" in the 27 87 family. Because all the flacons released to date have always been white.

Perfumer Jordi Fernández has created many a fragrance and his most famous ones are Haltane and Explorer. In 2018, he created this wonderful molecular fragrance called Genetic Bliss !

Let's now move on to the first impression: as soon as you take it out of the rather inappropriate outer packaging, you see an elegant black glass bottle. The simple and elegant design and the elegantly printed bottle label make an impression. The shape and the high-quality glass make this bottle in the 27 ml version a real hand flatterer. It doesn't even matter that the lid is made of plastic. The lid runs so smoothly over the spray head that you can immediately see the high quality of the workmanship. I enjoy using this bottle every time! The sprayer is excellent and distributes the fine water superbly.

Genetic Bliss is a linear molecular fragrance composed of 5 different synthetic wood molecules. That`s it - simple stuff! Immediately after spraying it on, it starts - but unlike all non-molecule fragrances. Genetic Bliss does not dazzle the customer with a tangy, citrusy note. Here, you get the full spectrum of the fragrance straight away! A gentle, soft woodiness spreads immediately. The way in which these 5 molecules are harmonized is masterful. This is closely followed by a light soapiness and creamy, fresh elegance. The fragrance is so simple and yet so difficult to describe - the best I can say is that it is a sensual, feel-good fragrance. This fragrance is extremely pleasant to be around. Genetic Bliss scores with five exclusive molecules that emphasize its own unique scent, with elegant and comfortable woody notes!

In terms of longevity, the Genetic Bliss will certainly not disappoint, as the H/S is above average! The fragrance is a real marathon runner - easily lasts 8-10 hours on my skin and can still be detected on clothing for days.

The Genetic Bliss has a moderate to strong projection, which means that the fragrance can be perceived for many hours in a reasonable radius without being too dominant. Even if you have sprayed too much, you will not be disgusted by your surroundings. Rather, it casts a spell over those around you.

Conclusion: Both thumbs up! This fragrance is more than successful and worth every penny. Why it never made the big breakthrough in the perfume scene remains a mystery to me. For me, the fragrance is great cinema!

Noble wood

A noble wood with a shot of synthetics that smells expensive.
I have applied the fragrance in the morning at 09:00 in the office and each a sprayer behind the ear and one on the neck. When my work colleague came at 16:00, he immediately noticed the fragrance positively. Because of the synthetic in the scent it stays long lasting and projects tremendously. I would say, however, that the synthetic is perfectly matched to the wood Sodas in combination it makes a harmonious fragrance.

Jumping over his shadow...

Changes, constantly changing interests, meeting new people - all this happens because time never stands still. From one day to the next, it can happen that an impulse comes to mind that didn't seem appropriate before.

Fragrances serve as a statement, an opinion booster or are simply there to make you feel good and enjoy yourself. I myself often enjoy the synthetic clean scents, the airy molecular chords and have always enjoyed the kind of fragrances since I started my fragrance journey in 2020.

It starts with Molecule 01, goes on to Easy for Ecstasy or Solano. in 2023, around April, when I bought my Imagination, I found myself in another small perfumery in Hamburg, incredibly well advised and introduced to the fragrance Genetic Bliss.

I told them about my preferences and was shown the test strip without knowing what I thought the fragrance was. At first it was nothing to me. Ew, just pepper, just something thrown together. But I didn't want to be satisfied, somehow, so I sprayed a sample on my arm and went home from the trip.

A good 14 months ago, I was in a bit of a phase, unsure about work, a change in clothing style or style in general to something more "authentic/chic" and the first thoughts about the importance of the professional cornerstone became more and more present. Somehow, really "growing up" is scary. You realize how quickly days actually go by, how quickly weeks pass and how constantly everything is changing.

This is also my attitude towards Genetic Bliss, because I ALWAYS liked it better after wearing it. It comes across as cheeky, fresh, with spunk, authoritative, bossy and, above all, individual.

So this molecule monster ended up on my wish list In November 23' the time had come. (In addition to 4x ordered samples)

Jumping over your own shadow. Sometimes you don't even know that certain new things should find a place in your life and, above all, have one. The fragrance underlined the change in my style, my appearance and my self-confidence. Because that's what Genetic Bliss radiates: Self-confidence, a wonderful feeling of esteem and individuality.

The fragrance character remains relatively simple, but it should be noted that every molecular fragrance smells different on every person. I get a lot of pepper, airy-woody nuances and my own skin chemistry touch, which is incredibly appealing and attractive to other people.

The next time you are unsure about a situation in your life, an innovation or a change - just jump over your shadow, it can't get any worse.

Thanks for reading the story. I like you guys.

Great synthetic wood

Genetic Bliss was a fragrance I had been curious about for a long time. It's been in my collection for a few weeks now and I'm absolutely delighted with this fragrance. It's a very polarizing fragrance that has received a lot of praise but also some harsh criticism. But that's the way it is with molecular and synthetic fragrances, especially in this price range.
27 87 Perfumes is based in Barcelona. In addition to this fragrance, there are 9 other fragrances in the range, but this Genetic Bliss is by far the bestseller. The only black bottle, the others are white. This Genetic Bliss is also slightly more expensive.
I don't know whether there is more to the name. In any case, every fragrance from this brand is available in 27ml and 87ml. Cool idea, as such odd filling quantities are extremely rare.
Genetic Bliss costs over €200 for the large version and over €100 for the small one. Offers are hard to find as many stores don't stock this brand. However, if Breuninger has promotions from time to time, you can buy it a little cheaper there. The fragrance comes in a pretty orange box in which the bottle sits securely.

You should definitely like synthetic fragrances. Many people associate synthetics with something negative. If it's done well, it doesn't bother me at all. I think fragrances like Bois Imperial with lots of synthetics are brilliant because they don't come across as cheap or unkind. On the contrary, notes like Akigalawood or Georgywood come across really well and look very classy despite the synthetics. Whether you like it or not, the compliment factor is quite high with such fragrances, as they have something very likeable about them.
Genetic Bliss officially has 5 notes in the pyramid, all of them synthetic. The direction the fragrance takes should be clear to everyone: Woody, fresh and naturally synthetic. A subtle spiciness is also perceptible. There is not much development here either, as this fragrance settles down quite quickly and then tends to stay that way.
It is really difficult to describe a fragrance that is exclusively synthetic. You should test it yourself, buying blind is also very dangerous. Those who like fragrances like Escentric Molecules or Bois Imperial could be the target group here. Akigala and Georgywood are in the foreground here. If you don't like these synthetic woody notes, you can steer clear of this fragrance. For me, these two notes are like a joker: they always work, almost everyone likes them and you feel comfortable with them. This woody note has no annoying, penetrating synthetics, but is simply a great companion here. It reminds me slightly of a mixture of fresh polish and fresh sawdust, with a mild spiciness. I find it thoroughly pleasant, especially after about 20 minutes when the fragrance has settled in.
Performance is top, as you would expect from synthetics. Those who prefer a woody freshness in everyday life will not be disappointed. good sillage, over 10 hours of durability, some compliments... the fragrance is best used in everyday life. This fragrance also works quite well during sports or on warmer days.

All in all, a great synthetic wood fragrance, but you should test it first. You can see it very clearly from the statements: this fragrance is not for everyone. Possibly a little overpriced, but quite well made.

Compliment getter! Je nach Hauttyp eine Bombe oder langweiliges, altes Holz. Für mich funktioniert er und gibt Komplimente wie kein zweiter.

Not a fan. This house has made way better fragrances so far. This is very generic with unpleasant finish after few hours. Not for me, sorry
