It smells like flirtation.

Ring-ring... ...ring-ring... "Telephone counselling for anonymous lemonade alcoholics, my name is Kreszenz Schubidu, what can I do for you?"

"Hello, I'm super desperate, I don't know what to do."

"But, but... What's wrong?"

"I've been sober for some time now. But I don't drink the lemonade anymore, I just smell it
I used to like the Guerlain series so much, that was the Aqua Allegoria series. Limon Verde had an awesome lemony opening, but the coconut on the finish spoiled everything. So I tried Tangerine Basilic, wonderfully fruity, but the finish was too flowery for me. Passiflora was not wrong either, fresh, fruity, simply delicious. My favourite became Nerolia Bianca, but I secretly fell in love with this fragrance. But in the long run, this series became too expensive for me to sniff in the flask and I needed something new.

It happened the other day in front of the kebab shop. I smelled this delicious grilled meat. And there it was - the fridge in front of the kebab shop. Full Orangina, full Coca-Cola, full Fanta. And I knew I was lost
So I went to my trusted perfume dealer. Girl of Capri was a cool number, almost had me fooled. ... but have you ever seen the color... Not so good, so it didn't work out
The L'OC with lemon verbena, wow! Was the lemony tasty, but unfortunately a little toouuuuuu short-lived. Also the Durance scent with vervain was fresh (smelled a little bit like apple rings... delicious!) and also had a subterranean shelf life.

So I was actually about to run away with my Capri-Sun...

Uff..."

"Okay, okay, I have a last-minute fix for you. Now listen carefully: So you don't want to spend a lot of money and stay dry - no problem. In the 4711 remix series, there's still the one with orange.

It is a kind of jump in the pool into an orange fresh drink and has a fresh, slightly herbaceous finish. It's also a short pleasure, but it doesn't cost that much. And on the skin you will have the feeling of being shock-free."

"Okay... So what's the catch?"

"The catch is that you can get a fake fan named Flirt from Aldi for 79 cents and get drunk for a week. ... and she smells the same!"

"But HELLO I'm dry!"

"As you wish, but I'll get three bottles and a pack of Pringles afterwards - if you want, come by - you know - once teased, never stopped.

After all, what is this - a life without lemonade?"

EPILOGUE
Many thanks to Behmi for the inspiration with the Capri-Sun =D=D=D

Orange remixed

The 4711 brand is certainly associated with the classic genuine eau de cologne that every granny has felt when she stood in the bathroom cabinet. But for several years now, exciting new creations from the series Acqua Colonia (from 2009) and the Remix Edition (from 2011) have been coming back again and again. The first Remix Cologne was launched on the occasion of the 225th anniversary of the brand, and since then a limited Remix Edition has followed every year, each of which focuses on one fragrance. After Petitgrain from the anniversary edition, the same orange Cologne followed in 2018, lavender in 2019 and this year 2020 the lemon was remixed.

The fragrance is described here as citric fresh, but for me the fruity parts are in the foreground. The rather unknown perfumer is responsible for creations like Aromatics in White by Clinique and Invictus Aqua by Paco Rabanne.
The packaging is harmonious, I especially like the summery fruity colours and the artwork, which looks modern and despite the low price not cheap.
The flacon, adapted to the traditional shape, is decorated with a matt label. A small paper band seals the fragrance, which I find particularly appealing as a small, classic gimmick. The spray head creates a pleasant atomization.

The scent pyramid reads coherently. The notes orange, tea and cashmeran are the ones that made my ears prick up, as I particularly appreciate them.
The fragrance actually starts off beautifully citric-orange, but more fruity and tangy than fresh, fortunately the bergamot was not overdosed here. I would describe it as sweet, thus unbitter, despite the tea and the bitter orange. After a few minutes the tangyness disappears and I can sense hints of black tea, which seem almost creamy and well balanced. I must also mention at this point, however, that I would not have smelled the tea out without having the pyramid of scents in mind. After a few minutes, the juicy taste turns into a slightly oily orange peel, but this is neither too ethereal nor natural cosmetic. I don't smell too much from the base, as I have the feeling that the fragrance becomes linearly weaker from the heart note on. It is possible, however, that musk and cashmeran support the creaminess and the cedar wood acts as an amplifier for the citric. I would also easily attribute citric qualities to cashmeran. On my skin, the spell is over after about 40 minutes and I would have to add more. On my clothes, however, the scent lasts two to three times as long.

Colognes are known to serve as a short-term refreshment, which this fragrance also fulfils 100%.

I find it to be a good all-rounder that can be worn during the day, at work, in leisure time, as a wellness fragrance, as well as by old and young and man and woman and everyone in between, regardless of the season. But for me it fits especially well in the summer and golden autumn. Before going to sleep I would not use it because of its activating properties.

The fragrance twin is Orange Sanguine by Atelier Cologne, which I cannot confirm, because Orange Sanguine seems to me to be much brighter and more fleshy. The fans of one fragrance might also like the other one and vice versa.

I would assign the following keywords to the fragrance: Warm, sunny, slightly spicy, orange juice, orange peel, tangy to creamy consistency,

My conclusion: 4711 has released a beautiful orange scent with the Remix Edition 2019, which I would recommend unreservedly to all lovers of this fruit who are looking for a good and inexpensive refresher.

Thank you for reading,

Your Flaconesse

Drink pack to spray on

4711 is, to say the least, not a brand associated with the current zeitgeist and modern fragrances. But the remix series, of which I now had the 2018 version under my nose, could change that quite loosely and sparkling...

"Remix Cologne 2018" remains true to the citric line of the house, but with a radical facelift. Here, nothing looks dusty and "granny" anymore, nothing like fresh laundry or soap, nothing flowery and old-fashioned. Instead, the citrus notes (everything from bergamot to tangerine seems to be there) blend into a delicate, creamy veil of refreshment, sun and sexiness. Easy to wear, easy to swarm. For beach clubs and beach bars, for young and old, for men and women. You can hardly limit the target group. Some niche brands often can't do better than that for five times the price. Orange juice drink packs pure, primary school brain cinema. Innocent, clear, simple, straightforward, uncomplicated, carefree. A pity that it was/is limited. But at least the series now has my attention and I'm curious what else will/have to come in 2018... Here at least "Made in Cologne" can be seen again. Now a cold Kölsch!

Flacon: modern & yet typical 4711. colour fits.
Sillage & durability: hardly worth mentioning...

Conclusion: a natural, beautiful, pleasant and surprisingly up-to-date, almost youthful summer refresher from the Cologne cult house

Very helpful Review 13

Turkey, fresh orange juice and good mood.

Pure Turkey feeling.
I'm sitting at the breakfast table of a small vacation rental.
On the table there is inexpensive Kolonya, which is both as a welcome ritual given by the host into the palms of the guests' hands, as well as being served before and after the meal to disinfect their hands and soothe the smells that come with them at the table after an extensive meal.
It's hot, and we're about to hit the beach.
Well tasted, a splash of Kolonya in the hands and what can not be rubbed is lubricated in the neck, freshness kick.
It's too hot for dessert, but a freshly squeezed orange juice like this would be perfect right now.
I look at the counter where the oranges are piled up in a big basket.
They are huge, mature and charmingly dented. I order myself a juice, which is then squeezed before my eyes by a cheap electric press. And quite honestly. There's nothing sexier Remix Cologne 2018 smells of juicy ripe oranges, with the well-known scent of cologne underneath. Fresh, citric, a bit sweet but suitable for summer sweet - "it has 35° C and I can wear it" - sweet.
(layered with a salty scent but sitting directly at the sea)
The bottle is nicely shaped, the label is rather coarse, much too big and not so nice at all - but somehow it fits the "Turkish Kolonya" feeling, which is often served in Turkish households from plastic bottles. It's all about the inner values and the gesture. The small metal lid is quite chic and so it fits for me as well.
The scent is quite one-dimensional, but really beautiful. The orange note is not at all chalky, or cleaning or pungent. Only fresh, deliciously ripe and fruity, which could be due to the solid base.

I am super happy about the new summer scent, which is really cheap to find in the drugstores.
Not too bad for the holiday suitcase, and good enough for a chic summer party Durability is super on the clothes, on my skin rather solala. And Sillage behaves similarly, which I find welcome with a summer scent anyway.
That means post-spray candidate.
I'm really happy and I will surely get another bottle when this one comes to an end.

No maxi remix, but still nice and round

Now the Remix 2020er Edition is almost ready to go and I haven't even tested last year's version yet. So it's high time to dedicate ourselves to this 4711 offshoot.

Well, if you take it very seriously, I'd have to go for the anniversary version of 2017, but I don't have a sample of it at hand. And he can't be found in the shops either.

I think they've bottled more of the 2018, but now he's also becoming rarer and rarer. It's actually quite clever to bring a limited fragrance onto the market every year, which makes it clear that the range is diminishing. And those who like 4711 will not necessarily find the Remix Cologne editions bad, if not even want to bring them into their possession. Perhaps even two, or three to give away and/or bunker or as an object of speculation. Who knows how prices will develop over the next few years?

But now finally to the fragrance: Klar - Remix Cologne Edition 2018 has the theme orange as its leitmotif, as the bottle also illustrates in terms of colour.
With the help of Neroli, this reveals itself to be partly somewhat harsh, but also juicy and round. And together with the citrus, it looks like a mixture of Campino candy and a dash of lime until it dims out.

And because this remix is not an extended version, the pleasure is already over after much too short a time. What then comes at the very quick end is a light-footed, woody soft note.

So no experiments or excursions into the curiosity cabinet, but a fine, simple, catchy summer scent with a high refreshment factor for 4711 friends or those who prefer the contemporary and somewhat softer version.

The Fragrance Knife

The Ur-4711 Echt Kölnisch Wasser is one of my very personal nightmare scents, which penetrates my head like a scalpel, gives me a rapid headache and then I can't get it out of my nose. A really unpleasant fragrance for me.
Correspondingly suspicious, I watched the rehearsal from the Remix Cologne series. And only tested very carefully. You can never know which scent knife will shoot out of the scent pyramid next and maltreat my brain martially.
The first slight sniffing takes the fragrance of neroli, bitter orange and bergamot from the perfume. Not bad at all and without a knife. Fresh orange-citric, light and summery, not sweet, but a little bitter, which should be owed to the bitter orange. Another sniff seems to be allowed. Still for the sunny citrus fruits of the south. He could actually be a real summer cooler. It's time for a deeper smell now.

And there it is, the scent knife, shoots out between the oranges, bergamot and lemons as quick as an arrow and cuts them sharp as a razor, in order to find its way back over my nose, piercing and drilling into my brain. The original Cologne water is hidden under all the fruits as if waiting at the bottom of a full orange and lemon box to come out after the first fragrance unfold. Not dominantly superficially playing, but somewhat sneakily lurking, but my head does not let itself be deceived and reacts promptly with the well-known headache.

No, the Remix Cologne series and I will not become friends, because the scent knife strikes again

It would have been a good classic of 4711 if it wasn't limited. That's too bad

I don't think you have to introduce the traditional brand 4711, because everyone knows the famous classic 4711 Kölnisch Wasser and has been known and loved worldwide for centuries. And rightly so!

Remix Cologne Edition (2018) would certainly have had what it takes to become a classic as well if it weren't for a limited edition that will soon no longer exist. Too bad!
This refreshing water is for me a highlight of the brand in the olfactory sense, because it has such a beautiful cheerful, lively scent character, is wonderfully citrus-fresh and has also slightly floral notes intus.
It can be worn by virtually anyone and on any occasion.
Whether it's the young girl, a young woman, or the more mature generation.
This jewel has convinced me totally and when I wear it my mood always lifts up and a sense of well-being sets itself with me.
For spring and summer Remix Cologne is the right scent garment and I already got some compliments for it..

After the application Remix Cologne sprays a citric freshness which has a vitalizing effect.
Herb-citric scented bergamot immediately combines with a hint of green tea, which, however, is not very present and juicy lemon, think immediately of tangy lemon water when sniffing.
After a few minutes I notice flowery facets, namely gardenia in very small measure and Neroli.
This is quite strong with from the lot throughout the fragrance process. Blood orange?
I rather smell orange which is also juicy and lively and combines with all the scent notes within a short time.
The base note is not very noticeable to me, at most cedar, which is green and has a subtle pencil note typical for it. But not in a negative sense!
All in all, this great cologne from 4711 does not undergo any special fragrance development in the classic sense.
All scent notes are quickly adjusted to "adjust yourself", and stick quite well for an Eau de Cologne.

I know of some waters from 4711 that have a rather poor shelf life, and don't have such a buoyant, vivacious scent aura! And that's why this water is an absolute highlight for me among the citric colognes.
Let's see what the brand has to offer in the future, I am really curious!

The fragrance is very good.
The shelf life rather mediocre, but since it is a cologne, so it is good with 3-4 hours shelf life.
The Sillage is weak.
I like the design of the bottle with its lettering.

Worth a test in any case!

(K)an ode to summer

The smog of the big city soaked with sun cream and deodorant.
Overflowing meat rolls in too tight hotpants.
Unskilled feet in sandals - partly makeshift hidden in white tennis socks.
The cramped feeling in crowded trams during rush hour - standing and surrounded by high ripped armpits.
Striking arguments in spaghetti titops.
Incisive experiences of the latest swimwear in the outdoor pool.
A horde of wasps in and around the sundae.
Stung calves and arms by nocturnal pests...
Yeah, it's already on my back... summer. You can literally hear the transpiration in the distance...I make no secret of it - it is not my season. Too warm, too stuffy, too sweaty, too much...

But now anyway, on a beautiful and climatically moderate May day, I followed my shallow drive through the fragrance department of the local drugstore. A display in summery orange literally attracted my nose and so it happened that the tester was extensively following his destiny. The first impression was quite benevolent and pleasantly strong. The classic "4711 Echt Kölnisch Wasser" can truly be heard, but is immediately taken up by the citric notes. Bergamot, bitter orange and lemon are composed fresh and fruity and do not tend to turn into a toilet stone in any way. Neroli and tea keep themselves soft and unsweet in the background and together with the gentian result in a slightly spicy and bitter note. Unfortunately only shortly before the finish of this quite nicely made composition, the base notes are warm and soft to hear. The shelf life is low and lies with +- one hour...one can look at the price and is not further reprehensible for this reason. In principle a sparkling summery skin scent that doesn't make summer palatable to me personally, but is certainly pleasant to wear and unobtrusive at this time of year. Fresh. Citric. Slightly tart and spicy. Good, good, good.

Beautiful, valuable cologne for all who don't need a status symbol

The last weeks were already very summery with us and so my very fresh scents came early to the train. In summer I prefer colognes or similar like the Green Teas of Arden - the original as well as the Flanker. Last year I already added "Remix Cologne Anniversary Edition" to my collection, unfortunately it was limited. Nevertheless, I discovered a whole fresh filled shelf of it at Müller, right next to this year's LM. It is also still available online, on the HP of 4711 it still appears as limited http://www.4711.com/index.php/de/echt-koelnisch-wasser2.html#remix-cologne
even after one year
Here you get what the bottle and advertising promise: A lot of orange. Very natural, unsweet and fresh. The fragrance becomes warmer and softer/creamer in the course of time and is therefore well wearable even on cloudy days. I can hardly smell tea at first. For me, it smells like lemons, oranges, in the course of time very slightly floral with a soft cedar wood base.

The shelf life is equivalent to a cologne between two and three hours. I can't understand why anyone would regret that. The purpose of a cologne is simply to refresh yourself on hot days, which you get mainly by spraying, even if the fresh, light notes prolong the feeling of freshness a little. And here you can re-spray without having to look into your wallet first. With 100ml you should also get through the summer, especially if you have other scents as well. Next year the next LE will come out anyway - Quote "In 2018 the starting signal for a new fragrance series will be given: Each of the seven main ingredients of 4711 Genuine Eau de Cologne will be remixed in a limited edition http://www.4711.com/index.php/de/#remix-cologne

4711 always surprises me. The fragrances are valuable and cheap, but by no means cheap. My Capreser oranges from Parma, which are many times more expensive, can wrap up against this orange scent. While this fragrance is so citric that it starts to annoy me when I'm warm, Remix Cologne Edition 2018 is just soothing and relaxing. And so much longer will my ital. Luxury cologne now also again not to justify the price. ;) Also, it does not smell much higher quality, and is due to the intense citrus note with the caramel for me rather a pick-me-up on cloudy late winter days. At that time I had bought it for me and in this time it fits for me also well
Summer can come!

My new perfect cologne

Beautifully orange, fresh and elegant because of its high quality. Compared to the original, it seems more feminine, a little more sweet but still not too sweet. Neroli comes through well. With many colognes there is such a disturbing bitter note at the base, this is not the case here.
Well suited to generously fog and refresh itself with it, as it is not very intensive, beautifully natural and the price always allows this. This is how a cologne should be
