FARINA 1709Original Eau de Cologne

WOW... this is the REAL thing!! Don't settle for anything else claiming to be the same or similar. We first found it when we actually visited Cologne Germany. My wife ran out of it... I tried some US "same thing"s... poor!!!I finally bit the bullet and paid the $90 shipping (seemingly the only way to get the original). I bought 2 bottles, since the air freight charges were the same. My wife was ecstatic. She couldn't believe I had paid that much, but I told her she was worth it. (I'm guessing those two bottles will last a couple of years)I love the subtle smell... I hate most perfumes, my nose is very sensitive. This stuff smells faint & good & lasts all day.

I really like this. This is most definately unisex. Some reviews said it doesn't last long. I could smell it on my arm hours later although it was more subtle by then. I'd buy it again

As described, fast shipping.

My husband brought me a bottle from Brussels a while ago and I liked it so much I was pleased to be able to find it via Amazon. The little roller-ball bottle is perfect for your handbag.

I ordered this because I was curious about it: the original Eau de Cologne, based on a specific citrus discovered by J M Farina, a perfumer from Turin. I originally had problems with the top which has a spray and which I couldn't get at because I couldn't release it from the outer lid. My review was actually a cry to help to Amazon but they just refused to post it. Not helpful! However I persisted in trying to get at the spray top and eventually succeeded. I love the light scent and will probably order again, hoping the top won't be so difficult. It would be helpful however if with the information, there was an address to contact for help. I recommend the product - perhaps not the packaging... Or maybe I was unlucky. The rating would be 5 stars if I hadn't had the problems with the top.

Very high quality - 1st Class product

This was given as a gift. The recipient was thrilled with it and loved the smell.

I had bought a little bottle on a trip to cologne and loved it so much I wanted some more. This was the original product in beautiful packaging.
