Maurer & Wirtz 4711 Original Eau de Cologne Eau de Cologne (sample)

A true legend in perfumery – the fragrance by the German company Maurer & Wirtz, originally created in 1792. The very name "eau de cologne" was coined by combining two words that translate from French as "water from Cologne." Unique in its brilliant simplicity, this perfume remains immensely popular to this day among both women and their gallant companions.

The fragrance composition combines notes of greenery and spicy herbs, luxurious flowers, and juicy ripe fruits, with the citrus sharpness of bergamot and the sultriness of jasmine, which softens the aroma’s tone. Wood and nutmeg, complemented by noble oakmoss, lend a certain austerity to the cologne composition, making the fragrance a fitting addition to any everyday look.
