Mühlhens sold rights and licenses to more than 20 individuals, a move that was judged illegal and was voided in court. Mülhens then entered into a business relationship with another individual going by the name Farina (but unrelated to the fragrance's creator) and a company bearing the name Farina was set up. 4711 gegenüber der Pferdepost von Ferd.
