The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Eau de Cologne du Coq, launched by Guerlain in 1894 and crafted by Aimé Guerlain, is a lasting composition that embodies the freshness of early morning. The fragrance opens with a vibrant burst of neroli and bergamot, leading to a heart of lavender and jasmine, before settling into an earthy base of patchouli, oakmoss, and sandalwood. This blend creates a harmonious balance between zesty citrus and aromatic herbs, making it a quintessential cologne for those who appreciate the elegance of simplicity.

How to wear it

Eau de Cologne du Coq is best applied in light spritzes — its top notes are bright and fleeting, while the base notes develop slowly over time. A single spray to each wrist and neck will ensure the fragrance lasts through the day without overpowering.
