About this deal

Thirst quenching, citrus opening notes of orange, bergamot, and lemon satisfy the senses so much that 4711 retains an almost moreish quality. The smell (to me: opens with fruit tingles, dries down to a vaguely pleasant lemon peel) isn't really the point, but the act of applying it, the ritual of anointing or whatever. La ocupo, para salir en fines de semana, para despues de ducharme y para deleite personal vuelvo a reaplicar varias veces durante el dia y con eso estoy feliz. But the performance on textiles makes me think that it will shine as a room/fabric spray and that most of my bottle will be put to use as one.

I love the neroli, which stands out nicely, and is softened by everything else, of which nothing else really stands out for me. I am surprised that 4711 is still around, that so many people on Fragrantica are trying and actually liking it and that it is even a topic in 2022. When sprayed underneath and on clothes I get slightly longer wear and this delicious airy effect which I look for in colognes.

In addition, as we give you the option to choose what best suits your needs from several sellers, you have the power to decide so you can make your purchase as you wish.

The lavender, rosemary, and INTENSE citrus becomes too much, there is not subtlety in this fragrance and for the 20 minutes it stays on your skin it delivers a sickly amount of freshness. I keep trying all the flanker/sideline projects of this house and being like 'eh' or even 'ew' compared to the sheer pleasure of the original.sometimes I tend to layer it with molecule 01 or molecule 02 for some extra character and longevity. During World War II Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine (navy) issued vast amounts of 4711 perfume to the submariners of the U-boat fleet.

I know it's vintage, smells old and so on, but to me it's a genuine antidepressant, and I hope I get old enough to bathe in it. Nunca la habia olido, pero habia escuchado de ella, es un aroma genial tan natural, que pareciera que andas en un jardin o pradera que tiene naranjos o limones, o como si cortaras limones o apretaras las hojas y olieras tu mano. It's an established Eau de Cologne since generations and when I smell it I just know it's 4711 unmistakably. Overall it's a great fresh complement to a morning routine, I could even use it as after shave I think.Because it has been produced in Cologne since at least 1799, it is allowed to use the geographical indication Original Eau de Cologne. For best results, splash a generous quantity of the contents onto pulse points and apply as required throughout the day.

However, if I'm going out somewhere special or need something with more longevity, I'll wear something else. With a history spanning over 200 years, 4711 originated in Cologne and has come to typify the Eau De Cologne (water from Cologne) perfume enjoyed by millions today. also has the added benefit of many other pleasant fragrance additions and the overall effect is one of refreshment.

On top it's all citruses with petitgrain at the bottom to extend that smell; there's also some linen-like neroli to make it smell even cleaner.
