Masque Milano Russian Tea is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014, created by Julien Rasquinet. Russian Tea opens with Pepper, Raspberry, and Mint, settles into a heart of Immortelle, Magnolia, and Tea, and dries down to a base of Leather, Birch, Labdanum, and Incense. Masque Milano's Russian Tea carries an Acquired verdict, a leather-led wear.

A divisive, shape-shifting beast that some adore and others find utterly unwearable. This isn't your light, airy cuppa; it's a dark, leathery, smoky brew with a polarising fresh kick. Expect controversy, but if it sings on your skin, it's truly magical and unique.

Its strong projection and unique, complex character, especially the prominent leather and smoke, make it less suited for a conservative office. However, its sophisticated and mysterious aura, combined with decent longevity, is perfect for dates, cooler weather casual wear, and even formal events where you want to stand out.

About

Imagine inhaling deep from a steaming mug of strong black tea brewed with fresh mint leaves and a hint of wild raspberry, then swirling it with the rich, smoky scent of birch tar and worn leather. A complex interplay of green, fresh spice, and amber unfolds. It builds in warmth and depth, with labdanum and subtle immortelle adding a honeyed, herbal sweetness beneath the dominant smoky tea and leather.
