KARL LAGERFELD COLOGNE (1978 VERSION) ORIGINAL FOR MEN 60 ml 2.0 FL. OZ.
It is the first men’s fragrance released by LAGERFELD PARFUMS.
LAGERFELD used the term Cologne for the American market, and the Cologne listed has a fragrance concentration higher than Eau de Toilette. The brochure describes it as the most powerful form of Lagerfeld’s distinctive and original fragrances.
Elizabeth Arden (1978–1989), a member of the pharmaceutical company Eli Lilly and Company, was responsible for the product’s production, while the Bethco Fragrances perfumery carried out the manufacturing.
A wonderful box in light brown shades, with a light olive border; inside, against a black background, “Paris Parfums Lagerfeld” is printed continuously.
The heavy glass bottle was designed by Karl Lagerfeld. It is a rectangular prism with rounded corners—a work of art.
Iconic metal clasp in silver, shaped like a keychain
The product was imported in its original packaging by DENINA S.A., 29–31 Neofronos Street, Athens, and we sold it exclusively as authorized distributors.

ÁÁÁ EDITION
This product has absolutely nothing to do with products bearing the same box, appearance, and name. We are talking about completely different products in terms of reliability and quality. As the saying goes, “you can’t tell one brush from another”: many different companies took over the production and distribution of the fragrance after 1989—that’s all!
