Cologne One (01)

Not a classic cologne, but a reinterpretation of freshness in its purest and most modern form. Created by Geza Schoen, Cologne One is based on a simple yet powerful idea: the moment an ice-cold gin and tonic reaches your senses, clear, sparkling and immediate.

Cologne One was created with a 15% concentration, pushing the boundaries of a classic cologne. This higher concentration provides long-lasting freshness without becoming heavy or overpowering. The result is a light, transparent cologne that nevertheless remains strikingly present on the skin.

The opening is sparkling and lively with juniper berry, lime and citrus, enhanced by bergamot and mandarin. A subtle touch of ginger and the fresh clarity of cucumber give the composition an almost tangible, cooling sensation. The heart deliberately remains in the background with iris, rose and Hedione, allowing the freshness to continue shining fully. The base is linear and modern, with ambroxan, Iso E Super and a hint of musk. No heavy drydown, but a subtle, long-lasting freshness that lingers like a second skin. Schoen describes it himself as “that burst of cold freshness you get with a gin and tonic”.
