4711 Acqua Colonia Eau de Cologne Original 100 ml
4711 Acqua Colonia
The formula of the iconic 4711 Original Eau de Cologne is a closely guarded secret. The seven main ingredients have remained unchanged since 1792 and impress with their beneficial effect on body, mind and soul: lemon, orange, bergamot, lavender, rosemary, petitgrain and neroli.
Is it a traditional product? Of course! Is it monotonous?
Never! Splash it, spray it, do whatever you want with it it's yours. Take a deep breath for a moment of freshness, relaxation and calm. The structure is easy to follow on skin: brighter facets appear first, the heart becomes fuller and more textured, and the base settles into a smoother trail with a balanced presence. The bottle format makes the fragrance easy to dose, while the composition works naturally from daytime wear into evening without changing its core character.

This is a unique brand with an interesting history of formation. In 1709, in Cologne, an Italian named Giovanni Maria Farina first mixed alcohol and citrus oils, creating the first cologne, which was called “Kölnisch Wasser” (Cologne Water). The cologne became very popular and was primarily used for hygienic purposes. Thanks to the French, Kölnisch Wasser became known as Eau de Cologne.
The number 4711 appeared on the bottle after French soldiers invaded the Cologne area. At that time, there were no house numbers in the city — only signs. So it was decided to number the buildings, and Farina’s perfume shop received the number 4711.
Over the centuries, the brand expanded its range and now produces not only the Original Cologne but also other fragrances. Traditionally, they are still referred to as colognes. In terms of quality and composition, 4711 colognes are on par with eau de parfums, and the Acqua Colonia Intense line even surpasses them in aromatic concentration. Renowned perfumers, inspired by unique places on our Earth, were involved in creating the compositions.
ACQUA COLONIA by the perfume house 4711 is a series of extraordinary cologne compositions.
