Remarkably the Original Eau de Cologne has been around since 1799 and remains one of the most beloved fragrances for men and women in Europe over the last 3 centuries.
It's fresh and appealing zesty odour makes it a favourite for wearers who seek a subtle and elegant fragrance, without the need to shout their olfactory presence via brash and brutal cologne.

I love this as a woman. I remember as a child my wee gran putting a drop on my temples to cure a headache. It always worked hehe. The wipes are also very refreshing on a hot balmy day.

@Spikypotato. Год назад

I totally agree! I love it, I use it more then my husband😄

@vincezaaa 3 года назад

It’s a nice pleasant scent. Used it on the plane. Thai airways used to have a bottle in the lavatory.

Very good review, In our family we use 4711 in many ways and for almoust 200 years, as a frangance and more. Nobody I know is allergic to 4711, a disinfectant, It's anti bacterial and antiviral. English is not my native tongue. I apoligize for my bad English.

@Ivlodded 11 месяцев назад

in germany it was always more like a unisex/womens scent Only the new time showed again how versatile 4711 really is

Trusted your opinion with Taylor of Old Bond Street shaving cream (took some time to get here in Michigan) and could not be happier with it. Was looking for a light after shave and went with 4711 after watching this... you are 2 for 2 as far as I'm concerned. Thanks Ash.

@TheChapsGuide 4 года назад

I think you will enjoy 4711 - Its a true classic. As is Taylors shave cream. You are clearly a gentleman of class!

Goodness - it’s still around! I remember this from the days when my late grandfather used it. That was 40+ years ago now (which means I am well in the target demographic for this product now! 🤣)... And now I know the history of it too 👍🏽

Have you tried Al Haramain - Portfolio Neroli Canvas? It’s like an edp version of 4711. Incredible quality and lasts all day! I found it a week ago and I’m obsessed with it. Always loved the original Eau de cologne.

@Spikypotato. Год назад

I’m a female and use this more then my husband 😂 it is great during warm days, and in the evening it helps me sleep, I find it so relaxing. It is very soothing. I get a lot of neroli along with the citrus. I think as a younger person if you are into perfume history, this is a gem. I actually heard Clemence CC talking about its quality and she’s around 30 (and a fragrance expert). We have a couple of the other 4711 colognes, did you try any of them? Really enjoyed this video, thank you😊❤

Thank you for the sanitizer fun fact. I did not know that. Love your channel, by the way. You have helped introduce me to some great scents.

Another fine review and has me thinking this might be good for me at work. Wearing my uniform can, shall we say become a little hot and moist. This splashed on my neck will by the sounds of it make me feel a little fresher and help me through the second half of my shift. I'll let you know how I get on. I have used Blenhime but it's a tad expensive for work so this sounds ideal. Thanks again Ash for another excellent review and video.

@TheChapsGuide 4 года назад

A great tip for the ultimate chap on a brutally hot day, is to keep your 4711 in the fridge before splashing it all over. its remarkably bracing and really works a treat.

@MisterBurtonshaw 4 года назад

Wonderful, as usual. My first memory of this is when, as a child, we moved back to Swansea from Treorchy. When I started at the local infants school, my new teacher Mrs Florence had just come back from Cologne..... guess what she brought for us to smell? Yes, I have a bottle in the bathroom cabinet today. A lovely freshener. Thank you Ash.

I use it as an addition to the first coffee in the morning. I stumble into the shower with my first cup of coffee and after my bathroom routine I will throw a handful of that liquid onto my face and beard. Just before I leave for work I put on an EdT/EdP. The 4711 will be gone after the thirty minutes ride to work. So the citrus kick of that 4711 is just for me because it will be gone when I start working. This juice has a function just for me in the morning. Coworkers won't even find out that I use it. And I like it. So I don't even have to care about others opinions on that scent.

It is THE COLOGNE, invented in cologne over 250 years ago.... and the Cologne company survived many owners now they ARE M & W (owner of themselves), Cologne and the recipe is still secret and you can buy it just now....

Love this video, this 4711 is so comforting for me❤my grandma and great grandma both wore this and used it on hot summer days to cool off. Have 4 versions now (orange,yellow,purple and original) but the original one always will be in my heart ❤ (it also works great to put on your temples when you have a headache) 🌹

@ROCKGRINDER12 Год назад

I wore this fragrance on my last holiday to Argostoli (Greece) 6 years ago ..... the fragrance was just perfect for that boiling dry-desert weather of Greece .............. and I was surprised but the cologne lasted on my skin 4 hours plus, obviously not in a strong way, a very skin scent but I could smell it, so other people around me, I think 4711 Cologne is a fragrance just for that type of weather, dry like the Sahara desert and hot like an oven ............... very refreshing and with that soft touch that keeps you just right in the summer days.

Just got my first bottle. Nice fresh clean refreshing smell, nothing spectacular but nice. If I had to describe it, it be a bar of Ivory Soap with lemon juice. Also, occasionally it reminds me of Coppertone tanning lotion. I know, those two descriptions are totally different, weird. But mostly the Ivorysoap/lemon.

@toddbrown4935 Год назад

I absolutley love this stuff. I love splashing it on after a shower, after shaving as an aftershave, before bed or during a long day of work for that extra energy-boost. It's such a bright and envigorating scent that will never offend anyone; you can never really overapply. It really does boost my mood. The best part: its cheap but doesn't smell cheap! It will always be in my collection and I'll always have a bottle in the bathroom for quests. I recommend getting the splash bottle, not the spray bottle. As it is EDC so its pretty weak, so when its sprayed it seems to only dissipate faster.

@TheChapsGuide Год назад

I agree, 4711 is the timeless classic that never disappoints.
