Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - de Rochas Homme Eau de Toilette
A sparkling citrus legend that's somehow both classic and ageless, Eau de Rochas Homme is a proper crowd-pleaser. Just be prepared to re-spray your way to sunshine; performance isn't its strong suit.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Vol d'Hirondelle Eau de Parfum
If you're after a juiced-up version of Hermès' Un Jardin en Méditerranée, this is it. While some might find it a bit safe, it delivers a complex, long-lasting citrus hit that's hard to beat and sure to impress.
