4711 Cologne

Description

4711 takes its name from the street number of the building in Glockengasse, Cologne where this historic fragrance was created in 1792. 4711 Eau de Cologne is arguably the earliest true 'cologne'. The precise composition remains a guarded secret but the principle ingredients include the essence of essential oils from select citrus fruits blended with small quantities of rosemary, lavender and neroli. This unique scent is suited to both sexes and is an incredibly clean and fresh citrus cologne that instantly revives the wearer. 4711 is so light that it actually complements other fragrances. A truly unique time-honoured classic.
