Ты меня не бойся,
Я тебя не трону,
Ты не беспокойся.
***
An intense, smoky herbal blend that, like all of Anna's creations, will transport you to an imaginary landscape.
It's inspired by Cossacks, the soldier-farmers who live in the steppes in the south of Russia, accomplished horsemen guarding the borders since the days of Catherine the Great.
You are welcome to devise your own story, but here at Bloom, we imagine a young Cossack resting among haystacks and wild herbs, smoking his clay pipe while contemplating the starry sky. His friends are sitting by the open fire nearby. Smoke is wafting through wild thyme and wormwood.

Important notice:
Anna Zworykina’s blends are olfactive smellscapes (but neither aromatherapy, nor ‘spray-and-go’ perfumes). Her blends are sensory experiences, closer to works of art created in the scented plane (rather than, say, visual or audio).
Certain essential oils and absolutes that are used in her 100% natural perfumes may potentially cause allergies in some people. Please spray Anna Zworykina’s blends on fabric (on sleeves, scarves, etc.). This said, Anna Zworykina has acquired a huge fan base over many years and people interacted with her blends for quite a while now. We are not aware of any reports of any skin reactions so far.
However, Anna advises that those who are prone to allergic reactions, pregnant and nursing women, as well as people with chronic illnesses to be extra careful. Before trying natural blends, study the list of ingredients and consult with a doctor if you are not sure or a had a history of allergies. If you do decide to put these blends on your skin (unable to resist the temptation) always test the blend on the inside part of your elbow first and wait.
Do not spray these blends liberally as a cloud in the way you would spray a conventional perfume. Anna’s smellscapes need to be… carefully applied and experienced. Be mindful that some oils can also make your skin hyper-sensitive to UV.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is a fragrance for close, unhurried company in the open air, when the night is cool and the fire has settled into smoke and embers. It gives the impression of worn leather, dry grass and herbs carried on a steady breeze, with a quietly rugged presence rather than a polished one.
How to wear
Best worn in cooler weather, when its smoky herbs and leather can unfold without feeling heavy. Apply sparingly, ideally to fabric or a scarf as the brand advises, since the natural materials are concentrated and can project strongly. On cloth it reads drier and more atmospheric; on skin it becomes warmer, more animalic and intimate.
Who it’s for
For those who like smoky, herbal, leathery fragrances with an animalic edge and a natural, unvarnished feel. It will appeal to wearers who enjoy niche compositions that are atmospheric, earthy and slightly wild rather than smooth or conventionally refined.
The nose
Anna Zworykina is a Russian natural perfumer known for treating fragrance as “liquid art” rather than conventional perfume. Trained in biochemistry and molecular oncology, she moved into perfumery in 2004 and built a body of work shaped by rare materials, literary references and strongly imagined landscapes. Her style often combines classical structure with raw, tactile natural materials: resins, herbs, woods, leather notes and animalic accents. In Young Cossack, that approach becomes a steppe scene rendered in scent, with smoke, hay, thyme, wormwood and castoreum forming a vivid, almost cinematic composition.
Anna Zworykina’s story
Anna Zworykina Perfumes is a house devoted to natural, concept-driven perfumery, with each fragrance treated as an olfactive artwork. The brand favors distinctive themes, classical forms and richly textured materials, often building compositions around landscapes, literature and emotional atmosphere rather than mainstream polish.
Young Cossack’s concept
Young Cossack is built around the image of a young Cossack on the southern Russian steppes: resting among haystacks and wild herbs, smoking a clay pipe beside a fire under the night sky. The composition translates that scene into smoke, leather, thyme, wormwood and animalic warmth, turning a historical figure into a sensory landscape.
Extra info
The name refers to a Cossack, and the scent is framed through a folk-song line included in the presentation. It is described as an aromatic leather chypre and remains in production. The composition is also notable for its unusually broad natural palette, including castoreum, wormwood, hay and tobacco.
