Product Information

Our healthcare practitioner may need to contact you if they feel a further consultation is required based on the product you are purchasing. Mild to no sillage, so I don’t think I would offend anyone around me, and you’re unlikely to smell as much as I have under normal circumstances. It’s no secret that opinions are sharply divided by the scent known as ‘Echt Kölnisch Wasser’, or ‘Original Eau de Cologne’.

Crafted with the utmost care and attention to detail, 4711 Cologne is made using only the finest natural ingredi Therefore the only time we can supply an increased quantity of a prescribed medicine is if the doctor prescribes that quantity for you.I would heavily recommend getting a smaller bottle, so it can be carried around and reapplied when needed.

But for others, the very mention of ‘4711’ conjures up a palpable whiff of that familiar tangy fragrance.

The longevity on me seems about 6 hours (almost imperceptible at that point but still there--I apply fairly heavily when I want a long wear--cologne by its nature isn't meant to last a long time, so complaints on this aspect baffle me a bit. But all I can tell is that people often compare this one to Przemysławka eau de cologne from Poland.

Most people just like this because it's nostalgic and it's what people wore before good colognes were popular and affordable. The 4711 perfume, which was still classified as a perfumed water at the time, has been available since 1799. If you were stuck with insufferably sweaty people in a stuffy train compartment you'd dash some on your handkerchief and sniff that.Avon Sweet Honesty must share some notes--it's like a powdery and feminine version, also great for hot weather, bedtime, and kids.
