From the 3 Genyum that I tried at the time of writing (Painter, Musician and this Tattoo Artist), this one was by far the loudest and most attention grabbing.

Straight from the opening you’re hit with a huge dose of spice; while not listed I perceived it as pepper and salt, and even liquorice. It takes quite a while to smoothen, when the liquorice turns into something akin to anise on my skin and the woodiness comes through.

It smells quite retro and ‘macho’ and it’s definitely not my jam, but it was an interesting wear nonetheless.
