CELLA MILANO

CELLA MILANO – Timeless Italian Elegance in Shaving and Skincare Since 1899

At the turn of the twentieth century, Milan was a city alive with innovation and style—its grand cafés, theaters, and glowing electric lights setting the rhythm of modern urban life. In this atmosphere of refinement, Casa Cella was founded in 1899 on Via San Nicolao, soon becoming the city’s most prestigious destination for luxury creams, fragrances, and grooming essentials.

As fashion dictated clean-shaven faces and upward-curled moustaches for gentlemen, CELLA MILANO rose to prominence with its signature shaving products—crafted with care, tradition, and uncompromising quality. The now-iconic Cella Crema da Barba all’Olio di Mandorla (Almond Oil Shaving Cream), developed using a hot saponification method, became a benchmark for barbers and discerning men alike. Its rich, creamy lather and unmistakable scent turned the daily ritual of shaving into a luxurious experience.

Cella’s dedication to excellence earned international acclaim: a Gold Medal at the International Exhibition of Milan in 1906, followed by the Grand Cross of Industrial Merit in 1908. These honours marked the brand’s place at the pinnacle of Italian craftsmanship and innovation.

Today, CELLA MILANO continues to celebrate over a century of tradition with a full range of shaving soaps, aftershaves, pre-shave balms, and skincare products—each staying true to the artisanal values that made the brand legendary.
