About this deal

mind, this looks as if it could be a 300ml bottle of Gin, or some other aromatic distilled spirit, such is the packaging, appearance and scent! The fragrance evokes feelings of elegance, sophistication, and a touch of nostalgia, making it a timeless choice for any occasion. any alterations they may have made to the formula over the years are relatively minor, as any of my bottles, old or new, still read as, "Yes, that's still 4711! For a short while, it transitions into a pleasant mix of florals and finally some woody notes, The drydown is really enjoyable, but unfortunately, it is fleeting. It's probably suitable for men and women above the age of 30 but "old souls" in their 20s can absolutely wear this magnificent fragrance.

It's not something I ever pick up like 'yes, this is what I want to smell like today', but it's something I think I'll always have around (was even eyeing up the 800ml at the chemist the other day) I dont care that it's fleeting, and simple - it's something I splash on a hot summer night, to take some freshness to bed. using this in your scent dispenser could also be an interesting idea as well as cleaning products in case you make your own at home. I use unscented shaving, bathing, and skincare products where possible, and this is the perfect cap to the routine. It’s a little spicy and aromatic as well, making for a strong “clean'' feel that isn’t harsh or synthetic. I've been wearing this 2 days straight ( probably for the entire week-- the weather in Manila now is scorching) , and the simplicity of this is just uplifting.

This pairs perfect with molecule 01 as it makes it more rich,full bodied and brings out the best in this scent profile ! Staring at your perfume shelf the way other people stare at their closets or shoe racks, trying to figure out what to wear? This is as timeless as a timeless fragrance can ever get, I mean its been mass produced and widely purchased by countless people for almost a quarter of a millennia. It is a great spring/summer fragrance indeed, it reminds me of another neroli cheapie Just Jack Neroli. Ideal for splashing all over the skin as a cooling tonic, the wonder water scintillates with a cascade of citrus notes, which work to quench and refresh the senses.

If you apply a lot at once--especially on fabric, I find a masculine base of lavender and rosemary emerges (think mid-tone of Rosemary, not top aromatic). It's just disappointing that the scent disappears without trace within an hour - I guess that's magic. Unfortunately we are no longer able to send to France, Germany, Norway, Slovakia or Sweden due to customs regulations. I would heavily recommend getting a smaller bottle, so it can be carried around and reapplied when needed. These newer scents are all more potent, more expensive, and more readily relevant for our contemporary use/trends/needs.

Other products in the range have the typical “cologne scent” in addition to the classic 4711 fragrance.

This is such a classic Mitteleuropäischer fragrance--it goes back decades and decades, and even still you will find this used ubiquitously in German-speaking countries. If you like Neroli then Thierry Mugler Cologne is a much better choice, and if you have deep pockets and want beastly longevity then take a look at Tom Ford Neroli Portofino.This unique scent is equally suited to either male or female wearers and its light, fresh citrus notes awaken the senses. But all I can tell is that people often compare this one to Przemysławka eau de cologne from Poland. As the sun travels its arc across the sky, so must you reapply, an hourly ritual to revive its memory. The Original Eau de Cologne is manufactured from essential oils of citrus fruits combined with Rosemary, Lavender and Neroli.

A good Eau de Cologne is all about living in the moment, and embracing the peculiar exuberance that only a splash of bright citrus can bring. What makes 4711 Original Eau de Cologne so special is the careful selection of high-quality ingredients and essential oils.

Yes, it doesn't last long but there are lots of fragrances that cost way more and last the same or even worse. Eau de Cologne is a brief ray of sunshine on a cloudy day - beautiful, yet fleeting: it never offers more than an intimate skin scent and fades away with an hour. Suitable for both men and women, the juicy nuances of 4711 Eau de Cologne have remained the same since 1792.
