4711 Echt Kolnisch Wasser Original Eau De Cologne - 400 Ml

4711 Echt Kölnisch Wasser Original Eau De Cologne – 400 ml

Created in Cologne, Germany by Wilhelm Mülhens in 1792, 4711 Echt Kölnisch Wasser is the original benchmark after which all "Colognes" are named. Celebrated for over two centuries for its invigorating, therapeutic, and revitalizing properties, this historic splash bottle remains one of the world's most recognized grooming classics.

The massive 400 ml traditional glass splash bottle features the iconic blue and gold label designed in 1820 by Molanus, complete with the famous address number 4711 assigned during the French occupation of Cologne.

 The Scent Profile: Crisp Citrus, Lavender & Rosy Aromatics

4711 is formulated with natural essential oils chosen for their uplifting, mood-boosting qualities:

• Top Notes: Bergamot, Lemon, and Orange (An immediate, sparkling splash of cold, zesty citrus peel that instantly awakens the senses).

• Heart Notes: Lavender and Rosemary (A soothing, herbal-aromatic mid-section that provides a calm, therapeutic feeling).

• Base Notes: Neroli (Orange Blossom) and Petitgrain (A soft, floral-citrus green dry-down that leaves skin feeling fresh and clean).

Why the 400 ml Classic Splash is Special

• Therapeutic Aromatherapy: Historically used to revive energy, soothe headache tension, and refresh after long travel. The formula relies on high-grade natural essential oils.

• Versatile Refreshing Splash: Because it comes in a generous 400 ml splash bottle, it is used beyond traditional perfuming—as an aftershave splash, body refresher after showers, hand-sanitizing splash, or cooling friction rub in hot climates.

• Timeless Heritage: A 230+ year old formula that has remained unchanged, loved by generations worldwide.

 Performance & Application Tips

• Longevity & Projection: As a traditional Eau de Cologne (EDC), it is designed for an immediate, high-energy burst of freshness lasting 1 to 2 hours. It is meant for frequent, liberal splashing throughout the day rather than all-day wear.

• Usage Tip: Pour a small amount directly into your hands and splash onto your neck, face, and arms after a warm shower or after shaving. Storing the bottle in the refrigerator creates an ice-cold, invigorating splash during hot tropical days.
