4711 by Muelhens for Unisex - 2 Ounce EDC Spray

Here's the story: I have tried shopping for men's colognes, for myself, a number of times. Usually, I can't stand the stuff. I have taken whiffs of designer colognes, at Macy's, no less. Not really impressed. Usually, smells the same to me, like a used car salesman, with slicked back hair, and a loud suit. Kind of heavy, too. In fact, no matter where I shopped, sales, discounts outlets, nope. I got a link in my FaceBook feed to this product. I've never noticed it in stores around here- maybe I have to look harder. So I bought a tiny bottle, blind, taking a chance, for $13.70, with the tax. If I didn't like it, I figured I'd use it for car air freshener. The moment I opened it up- wow! What a difference! This is way better than the overpriced junk they are pushing! Nice and fresh. Other stuff I feel would often clash with food aromas, for example. It's marketed as 'unisex.' Really, I think the usual designer 'men's' stuff smells more effeminate. 4711, is kind of neutral/attractive. By comparison, miles better than Old Spice, and lots nicer than Royal Copenhagen. One of the better things I've spent my hard-earned cash on!

I bought this from seller BSLLC USA and received item as described, in perfect condition.I already set my expectations that this is just a mild cologne and will not last long so I bought the smaller size. This smells like clean lemon cologne, not cleaner type but more on a zesty fresh burst. I use this to layer my floral or gourmand perfumes that I want to tone down and freshen. This lasts for an hour max on skin and clothes. This is great for an out of the shower freshie or just a slater shave for men. It's totally unisex though and could be used by all ages and for casual spring summer occasions or just lounging at home.

Arrived on time and I loved the delicious fragrance I had used in college days! Wonderful, refreshing and cooling in these summer days.

This has a top note spritz of lemon which backs off to a creamy kind of lanolin dry down. But layered underneath, you get just a whiff of lemon. I saw this when I was about 17 in a perfume boutique. It was a fun time in my life and getting this cologne today absolutely slapped me back there PDQ and had me grinning. Would I recommend this to a friend? You betcha. It’s light and clean, a little sweet and creamy and great for everyday wear. I got the small medallion bottle which easily slips into my purse, but since I’ll keep using this, I think I will get a spray for better application.

I really like this. My wife does not particularly. Everyone is saying citrus, orange, and woodsy scents. For me, the dominant note is floral and it is VERY honeysuckle. If you grew up around honeysuckle, you will recognize it. It's floral without being feminine. It it is fresh, bright, and fairly light. It strongly reminds me of a soap I can't quite put my finger on. It's more a quick refresh, splash-on then a lasting personal scent. I don't know how long I'll use it given that it doesn't do it for the wife (so what's the point?), but I'm happy to have tried it. Something intriguing trying the "original" cologne, and one of the oldest commercially made scents in the world.

The pack and bottle were not sealed and the "perfume" was diluted with water. This is NOT 4711, a beautiful fragrance from Germany, which I have been wearing for many years.

Great fragance

Smells lovely, but the scent does not last very long
