Guerlain launched Eau de Cologne du Coq in 1894 — and it was a brilliant move. A masculine fragrance belonging to the citrus and aromatic families. It was created by perfumer Aimé Guerlain. Part of the Eaux collection, available as eau de cologne.
The sillage is noticeable — present, but never overpowering. It settles in and stays — the longevity is genuinely high. Produced in France, where perfumery has long been elevated to an art form. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance is highly persistent and lasts on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, gradually revealing its notes and allowing you to enjoy the full bouquet throughout the day
The scent is clearly present near you, but it does not fill the entire space

The note pyramid of Eau de Cologne du Coq evolves as a cohesive olfactory arc, where notes flow smoothly and sequentially. The style of Guerlain is evident in details that define the fragrance identity. No excess details, only what works, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Eau de Cologne supports the depth and body this composition needs.
In the first seconds you meet sparkling citrus top notes: Bergamot, Lemon and Orange. Exactly these 3 notes build sunny vitality that gives the fragrance a clear opening statement.
In the central layer you meet Lavender and Rosemary carrying a pure leafy direction.
The internal accord map is shaped by these accords: Aromatic, Citrus, Wood and Amber with each one in a clear role. The stylistic positioning is masculine, which clarifies the composition character. In longevity terms High indicates a stable lasting impression.
At olfactory-group level the composition is built around Citrus, Green, Aromatic and Ambery. The palette also extends to Earthy / Mossy and Wood.
