Genna is your colour, it looks stunning on you ! Gypsy is pretty too,Gypsy (#41) is a beautiful warmer orange with gold shimmer. I think of it as more of an autumn orange, a bit browned, muted... very pumpkin-like.
Genna (#28) is a bright red-orange. Depending on your skin tone, it might pull more orange or more red, but on its own, it's pretty much dead in the centre. This one seems more like a "spring orange"- juicy and clear and saturated.
There's a new orange (Geneva) with the shades that are being released for summer. I don't know how much different it is than Genna, but it looks a bit more orange and just a little less opaque.
Here's photos of Gypsy and Genna on me. That might not help in terms of the skin tone, since we're quite different in that regard, but it'll at least give you a sense of the shades.

Thanks for sharing---It's gorgeous on you. I purchased Rose Grenat, but have not yet tested or worn it. I was sold on the shade & packaging. I'm thrilled the formula is
I just got Sun Celebration (Bloomingdale's last one) yesterday. Have yet to play with it... but I might get the chance this afternoon!
Hi Medgal! Just for you, I'll mess with it this afternoon. If the sun decides to come out today, I'll be able to photograph it in natural light (which is most true). It's gorgeous, but the display was lacking for me. I swatched it with fingers, and that horrid brush (that's so pretty, but terrible with application) from Guerlain. Maybe it was the lighting. I'm going to play with it today to see what's what.
@katered: I have not ventured info Guerlain lipsticks, but if Genna ends up in my home I will blame you. I had to keep going back to look at that pic with you and Genna. It is fantastic on you. We have totally different complexions but that intense shade is calling me from my computer screen.
