Milano Fragranze Brera is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Violaine Collas. Brera opens with Pimiento, Bergamot, and Saffron, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Vanilla, and Labdanum. Milano Fragranze's Brera carries an Acquired verdict, a rose-led wear.

A divisive yet elegant rich rose, Brera delivers a spicy and resonant take on a classic theme. Some find it a touch synthetic or unoriginal, while others praise its sophisticated execution and gothic flair. Definitely not a blind buy for those new to spicy rose.

About

Brera opens with a sharp, warm hit of pimiento and saffron, softened slightly by bergamot, creating an immediate, intriguing spice. The heart quickly unfolds into a dominant, rich rose, buoyed by the nuanced floral tones of jasmine and geranium. This opulent bouquet settles into a deep, earthy base of labdanum and patchouli, with a creamy hint of vanilla lingering in the drydown. The overall impression is a modern, spicy rose with a captivating depth.
