Rochas Eau De Rochas eau de toilette is a classic of the chypre fragrance family, with a slight citrus-fougère mood. This product was launched by the French brand Rochas back in 1970, and since then, its captivating scent has attracted an ever-growing number of aficionados. These women's perfumes can serve as a delightful surprise gift for many connoisseurs of classic women's fragrances, reviving warm memories of the past with their scent.
The Rochas Eau De Rochas bottle is designed in the shape of a piece of rock crystal, whose intricate pattern is meant to evoke the swift flow of a mountain stream. The fragrance's composition blends fruity notes, floral scents, and exotic spicy fragrances. The base note features amber and musk, stirring waves of passion in the soul of the Rochas Eau De Rochas perfume wearer, which are anchored by the enduring notes of oakmoss and sandalwood. Rochas Eau De Rochas is for the true connoisseurs of French fragrances for women.
The scent is truly wow, but it works best in warm weather and when it's breezy - that's when it reveals itself with a vibrant, slightly prickly metallic chypre.
I bought it based on the description, and I wasn't wrong. It suits me better for the winter period.
Fragrances for summer! With a blend of 25+ and a natural sense of water, cleanliness, and freshness. Even with temperatures below 20+22+, a dry bitterness appears. These perfumes are long-lasting!
"C" - Citrus. In the summer, it is refreshing, crisp, and cool. Now, in the first decade of November, it is like a harbinger of the not yet quite close New Year, but as a promise that everything will be fine.
Everything will be alright.
I ordered Eau de Rochas for my birthday last year because it was the 50th anniversary of this fragrance. I also really wanted something in a beautiful and memorable bottle. In addition, I happened to see a TV show about Galina Ulanova the day before. Her students and those who saw her on stage talked about what a ballet goddess she was, how enchanting her dance was, and how she loved to dress very elegantly, preferably in costumes that leading designers in Paris and London were happy to give her. However, she was completely indifferent to perfumes; she received many expensive and fashionable ones as gifts, thanked sincerely, and then re-gifted them. This was because she loved nature very much and believed that there was nothing better than natural scents that perfumers were unable to capture. But one day, in 1970, she came across the newly released Rochas Eau de Rochas and fell in love with it. She loved everything about it, starting from the bottle that resembled mountain crystal and the frost patterns on the glass, to the transparent mountain stream, and ending with the gentle scent of awakening nature. Since then, she would only bring Eau de Rochas from all her tours. And to this day, a bottle with remnants of this perfume stands on a shelf in the bathroom of her museum-apartment. That's how I wanted to touch the legend, and that's how I made my choice. Of course, I understand that all fragrances have been reformulated since then, but this one still sounds magical and unlike anything else. Yes, and the order arrived on my birthday, thanks to the Makeup team!
The fragrance is a classic. It is a timeless scent that has captivated the famous Galina Ulanova. I first heard it from my mother in childhood, but it has remained in my olfactory memory forever, so I decided to order it for myself. It is the perfect fragrance for everyday wear, aristocratically standing out against the current dominance of Eastern sweetness, oud, sugary fruits, gourmand notes, and vanilla.
It is crystal clear, cool, and slightly dry. It has mossy notes with initial hints of citrus. It may be slightly bitter for some and may seem too retro, but it definitely doesn't smell like grandma's old chest. It sits close to the skin, so don't expect a strong trail. It has average longevity. It is a unisex scent.
