Durable and sophisticated. Luxurious and multifaceted. Refreshing, light, and versatile. All these describe the delightful fragrance of Rochas Homme Eau de Toilette by Rochas. This restrained classic fragrance will adorn you better than the most expensive suit. It is perfectly suited for a formal reception, a theater outing, as well as for a lively party and a romantic date.
The presented Eau de Toilette will envelop you with the nobility of woody aromas and soften their certain rigor with the tenderness of a couple of floral notes. A combination of bright, sun-ray-like citrus fruits and fragrant bergamot awaits you in the top notes of this perfumery narrative. Moving towards its heart, your sense of smell will be greeted with a blend of wild rose, elegant lily of the valley, and carnation with coriander.
And in the finale, you will experience the indescribable fragrance of white cedarwood, sprinkled with amber, musk, and covered with fluffy moss. This quartet will produce an unforgettable trail that will long follow you, enchanting ladies' hearts.
The scent is alright. Suitable for everyday use. That's what my husband said.
Great item. In terms of durability, it has received positive feedback. However, on the second day, the shirt starts to smell. I would rate its durability as 4 out of 5.
The MAKEUP work is always at a good level. Quick, timely. The level of service is 10 out of 10. As for the toilet water, it's probably not my scent. Very sharp, although I like to smell classic scents from the 90s, but this one is too much... The longevity, in my opinion, is only 30 minutes. So I highly recommend buying it only for those who are already familiar with this scent. I bought it based on the comments in the description. I really regret buying it.
This is my dream, even though it is for a man. Thank you.
Super simple water.
Wonderful perfume. For those who love the 90s, this is a no-brainer. Don't be afraid of the retro vibe in the scent, it is perfectly mainstream, but much higher in quality compared to its contemporary competitors.
The water smells exceptionally good, primarily a fresh citrus scent that transitions into woody notes while remaining fresh and citrusy. It is in the same direction as Dior's Eau Sauvage or Feraud Homme, for example.
In short, the scent is very, very worthy, summery, and light, making it suitable for everyday use.
Scent - 9 out of 10.
Bottle design - 10 out of 10.
Here is a translation of a review from the internet:
There is perfume that can be deciphered in just a couple of hours of interaction. And the price doesn't matter. And then there is a whole depth behind an unassuming fragrance.
Eau de Rochas Homme is precisely a story of depth.
Let's start with the bottle: the entire philosophy is captured in minimalism. The bottle appears to be upside down in a shallow stream, and the water creates unusual patterns as it washes over the glass.
The sprayer on the bottle is one of the best I have ever seen.
The entire composition of Eau de Rochas revolves around lime with all its peculiarities. It is not just acidity, but a fresh aroma filled with spicy, slightly bitter (peel) tones. The lime's natural resonance is enhanced by a whole army of flowers, aldehydes, verbena, moss, basil, and coriander. Don't let the pyramid distract you - Rochas water is solely a story about lime.
I really like that the composition doesn't change over time. It remains a stable citrus scent without transitioning into a woody, musky, or vanilla base - a flaw present in 99% of fresh fragrances.
I consider the longevity a huge plus (even though I apply it at least 5-6 sprays). Eau de Rochas lasts for 6 hours without any issues. In the first hour, it has a good sillage, and then it sits at arm's length, but it still comes to life in the wind or under the air conditioner. Although, I must admit, reapplying this perfume at lunchtime is a delight.
What else can I say?
Sauvage. Before encountering Eau de Rochas, I considered Sauvage the king of fresh fragrances, but now it seems bland in comparison to this guy.
Eau de Rochas is the safest, refreshing, light, and versatile fresh fragrance for summer, heat, scorching sun, and humid, stuffy days.
Summing up: I have tested many perfumes in my life, including many fresh ones. But only Eau de Rochas has truly made me want to buy a huge 200 ml bottle and not get off it from May to September.
Conclusion: Longevity - 7 out of 10, Sillage - 6 out of 10, Composition - 12 out of 10.
A gem of fresh masculine fragrance in a world of bland and flat aromas.
