Kalina
Russia's beloved beauty brand with decades of heritage
Kalina is a historic Russian cosmetics and fragrance company with roots stretching back to the Soviet era, having evolved into one of Russia's largest domestic beauty manufacturers following privatization. Now owned by Unilever, Kalina operates multiple brands within the Russian market and offers a broad range of personal care products including fragrances, skincare, and hair care. The company's perfume lines cater to the broad Russian consumer market, offering affordable and familiar scent profiles that range from classic floral feminines to fresh masculines. Kalina represents the intersection of post-Soviet commercial beauty culture and international ownership, navigating the expectations of a domestic audience with the infrastructure of a global FMCG company.
