Which Should You Buy?
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.
A modern chypre that's a bit of a chameleon: some find it an elegant, subtle powerhouse, others a strong, overbearing floral. It's a crowd-pleaser for many, but definitely test before you commit.
