The story of Blu Genziana
Blu Genziana appears on the Ferrari Colors blog only as a name with photographs; the documented uses carry qualifiers. ROSSOautomobili describes Blu Genziana Triplo Strato as a three-layer paint on a Tailor Made 812 GTS, the only Ferrari in that color to its knowledge, and lists Blu Genziana Storico on an SF90 Spider whose Tailor Made configuration was inspired by a 335 S campaigned by Luigi Chinetti. A third ROSSO entry shows an F12tdf photographed by Ferrari Sydney in a one-off color it spells Blu Ginzana. Genziana is the gentian, the alpine flower of intense blue, as Wikipedia describes the genus Gentiana.
