Green Tobacco Aftershave Milk
Green Tobacco Aftershave Milk
Antica Barbieria Colla
Antica Barbieria Colla has been Milan's barbershop since 1904, still run today by the Bompieri family.
The third of the three aftershave milks Francesca Bompieri created when she joined the house in 2014 - and the most distinctive fragrance of the line.
Green tobacco, extracted from the fermented leaves of the plant, is earthy and warm in a way that settles rather than announces. It is not the scent of the cured product - it is closer to the raw plant, more vegetal, more grounded. It endures on the skin after shaving, which for those who choose this one is part of the point.
The formula is the same across the milk line - free of silicones, parabens, and synthetic thickeners. A slight separation of phases may appear in the bottle over time. This is not a flaw. Stir gently before use.
100ml. In a glass bottle. Hand-made in Italy.
Exclusive to Australia.

About the barbershop
Antica Barbieria Colla has been on Via Gerolamo Morone in Milan since 1944 - and in the city, without interruption, since 1904. Dino Colla opened the original barbieria near the Duomo that year, modelled on the private gentlemen's clubs of London. The house survived two addresses and a wartime bombing; Francesca Bompieri, whose father Franco ran it from 1975, runs it today. The product line - hair, skin, beard, shaving, and four signature colognes - traces its formulations to Colla himself, each recipe passed down and quietly refined through the generations of ownership that followed. Everything is hand-made in Italy by specialists who work in direct contact with the house.
