About Toskovat'
- Established
- 2022
- Origin
- Bucharest, Romania
Toskovat' is an independent Romanian niche perfume house from Bucharest, founded in 2022 by self-taught perfumer David-Lev Jipa-Slivinschi. Built around the untranslatable Russian idea of toska — a deep, causeless longing — its “extraits de mémoire” are conceptual, dark and provocative by design.
Conceptual, dark and avant-garde: unconventional, often confronting accords — boozy gourmands, incense and animalic depth, fruity-synthetic strangeness — engineered to provoke a memory or emotion rather than to please universally.

History & heritage
Toskovat' was founded in Bucharest in 2022 by David-Lev Jipa-Slivinschi, a former film student who came to perfumery without classical training and approaches it as a storyteller and scenic designer rather than a conventional perfumer.
The house takes its name from the Russian verb тосковать (toskovat) — to yearn, to pine — rooted in toska, a form of spiritual longing often cited as having no single English equivalent. Jipa-Slivinschi frames each composition as an “extrait de mémoire,” an extract of memory built to summon a specific feeling or scene rather than simply to smell beautiful.
Deliberately provocative and polarising, the line has earned a cult following and wider attention — featured in Vogue UK and The Wall Street Journal and written about by perfume critic Luca Turin — making Toskovat' one of the most talked-about young houses in niche perfumery.
How to choose your Toskovat'
Toskovat' is deliberately polarising, so decants are the smartest way in — sample in 2ml, 5ml or 8ml at Scento before committing to a full bottle.
New to the house? Start with Born Screaming, its more approachable and popular scent, or the acclaimed Amaretto in the Melting Room. For the darker, avant-garde side, explore the early flagship Inexcusable Evil.
These are extrait-strength compositions built for impact — apply sparingly and expect strong projection and long wear.
How to buy Toskovat' samples in Europe

Toskovat' decants & perfume samples — your questions answered
What is Toskovat'?
Toskovat' is an independent niche perfume house from Bucharest, Romania, founded in 2022 by self-taught perfumer David-Lev Jipa-Slivinschi. It is known for conceptual, provocative fragrances the founder calls “extraits de mémoire.”
What does “toskovat” mean?
It comes from the Russian verb тосковать — to yearn or pine — from toska, a deep, often causeless spiritual longing with no exact English translation. That sense of memory and longing runs through the whole line.
Where is Toskovat' made?
Toskovat' is an independent house based in Bucharest, Romania, with David-Lev Jipa-Slivinschi as its sole, self-taught perfumer.
Which Toskovat' fragrance should I try first?
Born Screaming is the most approachable starting point and Amaretto in the Melting Room is a widely acclaimed gourmand; Inexcusable Evil is the pick for the darker, avant-garde side. Try a 2ml, 5ml or 8ml decant first — the style is polarising.
Can I buy Toskovat' samples and decants in Europe?
Yes. Scento sells Toskovat' as 2ml, 5ml and 8ml decants and ships across the EU, so you can explore the house without buying a full bottle.
Are Toskovat' decants and perfume samples authentic?
Yes. Each Scento decant is hand-poured from an original full-sized bottle sourced through authorised European retailers — never a clone, dupe or inspired-by version. Manufacturer batch codes belong to those original bottles and are not printed on Scento decant vials.
How many sprays are in a Toskovat' sample?
As a rough guide, a perfume atomizer gives about 10–15 sprays per millilitre, so a 2ml Toskovat' sample is roughly 20–30 sprays, a 5ml about 50–75, and an 8ml about 80–120. Exact counts vary with the atomizer and how heavily you spray. Available sizes: 2ml, 5ml, 8ml.
Do I pay customs or VAT on Toskovat' samples in the EU?
No extra customs for EU orders. Scento ships Toskovat' decants from within the EU to 27 European markets, so EU buyers pay no import duties or customs charges and usually receive their order in 1–5 business days. Orders to non-EU European countries may be subject to local import VAT set by your country, not by Scento.
Should I buy a Toskovat' decant or a full bottle?
Buy a decant to test or rotate a scent, and a full bottle once you know you love it. A 2ml decant is only about 2–4% of a 50–100ml bottle, so it lets you wear Toskovat' for days before committing to full-bottle price. For sealed presentation or gifting, an official boutique or authorised retailer is the better route.
