Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Eau de Rochas EDT
A divisive citrus classic, Eau de Rochas splits opinion with its sharp, vintage charm. Some find it a refreshing summer essential, while others are put off by its 'old-school' or 'masculine' edge. Love it or hate it, it's certainly got character.

Our Verdict - de Rochas EDP
Divain's take on Rochas Eau de Rochas follows the same lime-to-oakmoss arc, but wears thinner and quieter than the original: expect roughly half the longevity and a softer projection. A fair blind-buy for the family, not a true stand-in.
