Kölnisch Wasser from Cologne - 4711
The story of 4711 begins in the early 18th century. It was created by the Italian perfumer Johann Maria Farina (1685-1766), who named it Eau de Cologne (Kölnisch Wasser) after his place of residence. During the 18th century, 4711 fragrances gained great popularity. Enter Wilhelm Mülhens, a Cologne merchant, who made a bold move: he purchased the rights to the Farina name from a man of the same name, who, of course, had no connection to the original Italian creator. Mülhens was undeterred and used the Farina name to market his own perfume, produced in his small factory on Klöckergasse in Cologne.
However, the plot thickens, and Mülhens was eventually sued by the Farina family. His grandson, Ferdinand Mülhens, also faced legal action and ultimately lost the case, leading to a prohibition on using the Farina name. But this didn’t mark the end of the story. The Mülhens family rebranded the company and the perfume itself as 4711, named after the house number assigned to their property during Cologne's renumbering on the eve of the French Revolution. This iconic name has since become synonymous with the classic and enduring fragrance of Cologne.
