Kologne, Shield of protection

Kologne, Shield of protection is a modern citrus–aromatic eau de parfum that turns the classic cologne idea into a bracing halo of freshness: sparkling green mandarin and bitter orange with mint and eucalyptus, a vivid herbal‑green heart of rosemary, petitgrain and neroli, and a dry cedar, cashmeran and sap accord base softened by musk.

Scent Development and Character

A bright citrus–aromatic composition that opens with green mandarin and bitter orange wrapped in cool mint and eucalyptus, quickly revealing a green, herbal heart of rosemary, petitgrain, neroli, ginger and galbanum. It dries down into a clean, dry woody base of cedar and cashmeran threaded with a translucent sap accord and soft musk, keeping the fresh, green sparkle through most of the wear.

Who It Is For and When to Wear It

Works best as a fresh daily scent in warm to mild weather, from casual daytime to office wear, and can be sprayed more liberally as a bright "aura" style fragrance. Its clean, citrus–aromatic profile also makes it a versatile choice for post‑shower or gym use. Most suitable for spring and summer daywear, with some versatility into mild autumn; less ideal for very cold winter conditions. Sillage is Soft sillage with a bright opening: the first hour projects clearly in a small radius, then settles close to the wearer as a subtle fresh woody aura. Longevity is Light to moderate longevity for an eau de parfum: often noticeable for about 4–6 hours on skin before fading to a close, woody‑musky trace.
