Eau de Cologne

4711 Original Eau de Cologne is a classic citrus cologne from the 4711 house, presented in a 100ml bottle. Its character is bright and clean, led by a sparkling citrus opening that feels crisp from the first spray and carries the lively, energetic tone the family is known for.

The development moves through softer aromatic territory. A herbal, lavender-tinged heart adds a gentle green freshness, while a faint spiced warmth and a dry, slightly woody finish keep the scent from feeling thin. Because the top of the fragrance is so dominant, the citrus remains the clearest impression throughout, with the aromatic and spicy elements providing a quieter backdrop rather than a strong secondary voice.

On the skin it sits close and soft, rarely projecting far beyond the wearer, and it fades relatively quickly, so it suits being refreshed through the day rather than relied on for long-lasting presence. Its fresh, uncomplicated character makes it a natural choice for warm weather and for everyday settings, though it is equally at home in spring, autumn and winter, where its brightness offers a welcome lift. It works in professional, casual and evening contexts alike, and its unisex character means it is not tied to a particular wearer.

The 4711 brand storybegins in 1792 when merchant Wilhelm Mülhens received a secret recipe for "aqua mirabilis" (miracle water) as a wedding gift from a Carthusian monk, which he began selling as an invigorating health elixir.

After French troops occupied Cologne in 1796 and introduced house numbering, Mülhens's manufactory in Glockengasse was assigned the number 4711.

He soon began marketing the product as 4711 Echt Kölnisch Wasser (Original Eau de Cologne), adopting the memorable house number to distinguish his fragrance.

The distinctive Molanus bottle was introduced in 1820, and the brand achieved global recognition and is still produced today by Mäurer & Wirtz, maintaining its iconic citrus-floral scent.
