4711 Ice Cool Cologne

I live in a very hot, humid country and this is the absolute perfect cologne for our climate. It's refreshing and I love the cooling feeling. Admittedly, the scent and cooling sensation don't last very long, but its very affordable so I buy the biggest bottle and reapply liberally whenever I need freshening up. An absolute essential in the summer!

wonderfull and refreshing on a hot summer day. Even to use on a headaque or you feel nauseus. It works for me. and in my opinion its not a men cologne but a unisex

Initially this smells like the hot lemon freshen up towels you get on planes or in Indian restaurants after your meal - chemical lemon smell. Not necessarily unpleasant but luckily it changes quickly. It dries down and gets some depth and smoothness. I don't get all the notes listed above. It is very light, fresh and subtle but with some hints of spice and cedar. I like it. Not really a fragrance to wear out, no real projection. It's not going to get noticed unless someone is really, really close. More for yourself to feel fresh and clean. Would be great in the daytime on a hot holiday. It projects, gently, for a relatively short time (2-3 hours on me) but it's cheap and gentle so you can just reapply as often as you like. In hot weather it is actually just about detectable on my skin for 6 or 7 hours. I agree with the reviews below. And it is definitely unisex.

Fragrantica says this was released in 2008 but I remember a unisex 4711 Ice cologne in Australia in the late 70's. It had a ton of menthol which actually cooled the skin down. It was a perfect drugstore cologne for a country with a hot climate and little air conditioning. I found the television ad on youtube from 1979! What a riot of an ad. And the jingle. Pure class. Youtube search "4711 Ice Cologne Australian ad 1979". I guarantee it is unlike any fragrance ad you have ever seen, thankfully.

An ice cool cologne that i use everytime before bedtime to cool and calm down. Will use more during hot weather of the cool peppermint.
