The story behind the bottle.
Russian Cologne by Santa Maria Novella was launched in 2026 as a fresh and aromatic addition to the brand's portfolio. The composition opens with Calabrian bergamot and neroli, creating an immediate sense of brightness and clarity. As it evolves, petitgrain and rosemary add a green, herbaceous edge that tempers the citrus freshness. Lavender brings a subtle floral note, while clove introduces a fresh spicy element that cuts through the sweetness without overpowering. The base notes of benzoin and civet ground the fragrance with warmth and depth.
This fragrance unfolds best when applied directly to pulse points. The top notes are bright and fleeting, so layering it throughout the day can help maintain its freshness. It's particularly suited for cooler mornings or indoor settings where the warmth of the base notes comes through more clearly.
