Introducing the stunning new cologne from Maurer & Wirtz, the 4711 Acqua Colonia Saffron & Iris, crafted by experts in the 2018 season. In its composition, this creation weaves together the melodious and slightly smoky notes of saffron with the melancholic essence of iris. It's a fragrance designed to elevate your mood and refine your style every day. Its components are selected with exceptional care and a genuine passion for the craft. The strict and multifaceted bouquet is perfect for evening or daytime wear, ideal for those moments when you wish to shake off the dust of the day and immerse yourself in sweet dreams amidst the wild nature of Southern Europe, which rejuvenates the spirit and fills the mind with positivity.
I don't smell any cosmetics or powder in this. However, the lilac scent is overpoweringly powdery. On the other hand, the iris scent is fresh, vibrant, very subtle, and pleasant. I won't be buying it, but it is quite decent and intriguing.
I purchased the 50ml size with EU delivery. I am a fan of this line of cologne. I didn't have Iris before, but now I do. It arrived in a beautiful box, securely packaged, and everything looked lovely. I personally liked the scent, it was pleasant, but the perception of scents is subjective.
I was disappointed as soon as I received it: dusty, stuffy, and unclear. However, after letting it sit and giving it a try, it started to improve every day. Now, I am enjoying it. It is very unique, delicate, and intriguing!
The powder has a delicate and subtle scent with a refreshing touch of saffron. It doesn't last long on the skin, but it may linger on fabric for a longer period.
I ordered this together with the peach cologne from the same series. I liked this one less: the smell is very specific and spicy. At first, it smells like old cosmetics: a heavy powdery scent. After a while, it becomes slightly fresher and more floral, but still not for everyone's taste... It's a pity that there is no miniature version.
