About this deal

But still pharmacists cannot dispense the item as a pharmaceutical benefit unless it has the necessary Authority code. Thankfully there are so many niche reconstructions of the original scent profile, Diptyque L’Eau de Neroli is a good starting place. In this case, it's alright with me seeing as how this is a classic blend, I don’t think they messed with it or modernized it, from start to finish this smelled like real oils and/or extracts. I use this for my bedtime spray because something about the herbal/medicinal quality of it soothes me.

It's not a sexy perfume but still putting some on after a shower would feel very nice and refreshing. The printer Heinrich Josef Metternich (a council member) applied for permission to publish an address calendar. On 3 October 1794, in view of the French troops standing just outside Cologne, the city council approved a plan proposed by the guard-committee to number all houses in the city without exception and to install what would be considered appropriate lighting for each location. It was a refresher after eating out with the family, we cleaned our hands with it, my mother soaked her handkerchiefs in it and dabbed our foreheads on hot days.This recipe was for an “acqua mirabilis,” or a miracle water intended for internal as well as external use.

It's an established Eau de Cologne since generations and when I smell it I just know it's 4711 unmistakably. However I pick up an herbal scent that is to me is not very appealing and makes it smell almost medicinal. It's like any woman with no interest in spending time and money on beauty and appearances would wear 4711. What I really love is that it doesn't interfere with a scent I put on afterwards, which is a big plus. I never believed in paying big money for citrus colognes, and 4711 proves that point - it smells effortlessly classy and high-quality.I use this as a spritz every hour or so on +30c days to feel refreshed and cool, without any worries of the fragrance becoming overwhelming to myself or others. I do realize that I might have a TOTALLY different perspective on 4711, and ALL citrus/strong/clean scents, if it were not for this association, I may like even ONE of this fragrance type. Years later, the address changed again when the continuous numbering system was abolished, replaced by a street-based system, but the name of the ‘Original Eau de Cologne’ remained unchanged. This isn't a cologne for others to smell on you; it's a splasher, a cool boost for the face whether it be on a hot day or after shaving. To me, this smells like summertime and vaguely reminds me of something from my early childhood in the late 70s.

I remember not really thinking much about it but I was always drawn to the bottle as it was a fixture on her bathroom vanity. this is definitely a classic and a must have for collectors in their archive ( but it isn't a necessity hehe, did I just contradict myself? Like everybody else, I also wish that they would make an edt version that would last longer as I would LOVE to smell like this all day long! Use it as a general feel fresh skin scent or when I'm going to be home and don't want to use one of my pricier frags. If you are a resident of another country or region, please select the appropriate version of Tripadvisor for your country or region in the drop-down menu.Once I saw a picture of it years later and knew the name, I bought a bottle for myself, just to see if it smelled like I remembered. I could easily imagine myself carrying around a little bottle in my bag to freshen up during a hot day in the city or the next conference I attend, especially since it's so inoffensive to spray, even around my slightly fragrance sensitive partner. New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging . The only way 4711 could possibly be better is if the fragrance lasted longer on skin, but then that's not really in its job description. Decades later, as a result of legal disputes with the Farina family, Mülhens’s grandson would introduce a new product description: ‘Eau de Cologne Perfumery Factory Glockengasse 4711, opposite the Stagecoach of Ferdinand Mülhens’.

He says it disappears within 5 minutes, which he minds (as he leaves for a full work day every day) and I don't (because I'm studying from home). During World War II Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine (navy) issued vast amounts of 4711 perfume to the submariners of the U-boat fleet.That's it: when people recognize neroli in the air, they never say something so ridiculous as 'wow I can smell tangerine orange peach apricot blah blah', what is uttered is simply 'wow it's neroli', even though neroli can vaguely remind them of tangerine orange peach apricot and so forth.
