hehe... that indeed IS quite the rumour.... 4711 is a cologne made since 1792 by a Carthusian monk. It since then has been recreated and made by the Muelhens and has quite a history. When some GBLT (gay-bi-lesbian-transgender... as is the "Frank-N-Furter" character) prefer to sport No.5, Channel, or other classic brands of perfume in honor of classic actresses, the Frankie character chose to go back FAR and display Muelhens 4711... More can be found on the perfume at wikipedia of course as well as many other sources. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4711

Hope that helped and cleared things up for you a little bit. :)
