de Rochas

by Nicolas Mamounas

Rochas de Rochas is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1970, created by Nicolas Mamounas. The fragrance opens with Basil, Lemon Verbena, Bergamot, and Grapefruit, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Narcissus, and Patchouli, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Sandalwood, Oakmoss, and Musk.

Our verdict on de Rochas: Favourite

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.

About

Unleash a bracing burst of Mediterranean citrus, with zesty lemon, lime, and bergamot sharpened by a crisp basil note. As it settles, a floral heart of jasmine and narcissus emerges, underpinned by a green, earthy blend of oakmoss and vetiver. Hints of patchouli and amber give it a rich, grounding depth, creating a sophisticated cologne with a unique bitter-fresh appeal. It's sunshine and wet stones in a bottle.
