Masque Milano Romanza is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Cristiano Canali. Romanza opens with Angelica, Absinth, Orange Blossom, and Artemisia, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Violet Leaf, and Narcissus, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Amber, Cedar, and Vetiver. Masque Milano's Romanza carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Masque Milano's Romanza is for those who crave the unconventional. Unashamedly unique, it's a divisive floral with an addictive, challenging edge. If you don't mind a bit of 'filthy floral' mystery, dive in.

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.

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its potent projection and unique, sometimes challenging, floral animalic character make it unsuitable for the office or casual settings. However, its bold, sophisticated profile shines on dates or formal events where you want to make a memorable, if potentially polarising, statement.

About

Romanza bursts open with a striking green bitterness from absinthe and artemisia, undercut by a flicker of orange blossom. The heart plunges into a heady, indolic narcissus and jasmine, softened by violet leaf, evoking a bouquet on the edge of overripeness. The base unfurls with earthy vetiver and patchouli, warmed by a resinous amber and myrrh, grounding the volatile florals in a dark, woody embrace. It's a complex, evolving scent.
