4711 1792 EDC
Original
4711 Original is a Cologne launched in 1792, created by Wilhelm Muelhens. Original opens with Bergamot, Lemon, and Orange, settles into a heart of Lavender and Rosemary, and dries down to a base of Petitgrain and Neroli. 4711's Original carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.
This venerable 'cologne' smells fantastic - a bright, classical citrus-herbal pick-me-up. Just don't expect it to last longer than your morning cuppa. It's truly a blink-and-you'll-miss-it affair, a fragrant whisper rather than a shout, but brilliant for what it is.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Best Occasions
Its extremely poor longevity and sillage make it unsuitable for situations requiring lasting presence, such as formal events or intimate dates. However, its refreshing nature and non-intrusive scent profile make it perfect for casual wear, after showering, or for a pick-me-up during sports or office hours where a fleeting scent is preferred.
