Echt Kölnisch Wasser 4711 1792 Eau de Cologne

You are the fragrance that I have known since childhood!
She has proudly - and strongly! - carried like her gray hair.
Often I would have liked to run away from you,
but not from her, who was the dearest to me!

I see her before me, how she wets herself with you,

the looks fresh-mischievous like your citrus notes.
Her warmest smile she put on
and then offered me 'peppermints'.

Never could I carry you instead of her;

you are tied to her with a tight knot.
But I perceive your pyramid,
it rises briefly - for the moment! - from the dead!

For Anna...
