Rochas Femme Rochas is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1944, created by Edmond Roudnitska. Femme Rochas opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Rosewood, and Cinnamon, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Iris, and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Musk, Leather, Amber, and Patchouli. Rochas's Femme Rochas carries an Acquired verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

A divisive classic that's either a sensuous masterpiece or a 'curry armpit' disaster, Femme Rochas commands attention. Its vintage charm means it's not for everyone, but if you love a spicy, fruity chypre, this is a true gem.

Casual

Too bold for the office, Femme Rochas shines on dates and formal evenings, especially in cooler weather. Its strength and opulent character mean a generous application would overwhelm casual settings, and it's certainly not suited for sport.

About

Femme Rochas opens with a rich, spiced embrace of ripe peach and juicy plum, accented by warm cinnamon. The heart unveils a robust blend of clove, rose, and ylang-ylang, intertwining with an earthy rosemary. As it settles, a luxurious base of leather, oakmoss, and amber emerges, creating a deep, sensual, and complex finish, softened by a hint of patchouli and vanilla.
