Masque Milano Kintsugi is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Vanina Muracciole. Kintsugi opens with Amber, Bergamot, and Magnolia, settles into a heart of Suede, Rose, and Violet Leaf, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Vanilla, Benzoin, and Raspberry. Masque Milano's Kintsugi carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

Kintsugi is a love-it-or-hate-it scent - a bold, shape-shifting fragrance that some find exhilaratingly complex and others, frankly, a bit of a challenging mess. It's truly not for everyone, but if you're after something really different, it might just be your next obsession.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

With significant projection and longevity, Kintsugi is too potent for most office environments. It shines in more intimate or formal settings, where its unique character can be appreciated without overwhelming others. Its complexity makes it less suited for casual, everyday wear or active sport.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opens with a bright, uplifting burst of bergamot and magnolia, softened by a sweet, jammy rose and fruity raspberry. This evolves into a smooth, slightly powdery suede heart, given depth and earthiness by patchouli. The drydown settles into a comforting, resinous vanilla and benzoin, with echoes of the earlier fruity-floral journey. It's a journey from zesty floral to deep, warm leather with an almost mossy undertone.
