Russische Eau de Cologne Harry Lehmann 1926

Tobacco-like, balsamic. This is how this fragrance composition is officially described by Harry Lehmann. And of course, that is true. But this scent is so infinitely much more. Russian Eau de Cologne is style and class. It reminds one of the good old days. Gentlemen's clubs, but also other opulent evening events. This fragrance has that certain touch of nobility, despite a certain rawness. It is rough and yet refined. Perfectly balanced. Tobacco, patchouli, possibly amber. A splash of the finest cognac. Russian Cologne is so masculine. Without being crude. It is a really, really good classic perfume, like those that are hardly found today. Top-notch quality and harmony. The presence is always perfect. Constantly there yet not exaggerated. Considering that it is an EdC, many EdPs could learn a thing or two from it. Furthermore, Russian Cologne has a special kick for me. That certain something that I can hardly describe, but which a good perfume must have. Whatever it is. I wear it and feel special. The scent immediately conveys to me an impression of elegance and exclusivity. It is noble. Dark and yet sparkling in its own way.
Russian Eau de Cologne is another masterpiece by Harry Lehmann for which I am very grateful.
