In 1948, designer Marcel rochas asked master perfumer Edmond Roudtniska to create a more modern version of Eau de Cologne. The Eau de Roche fragrance for women was thus born. From its creation, it featured a bottle resembling a piece of rock. Its fragrance has a freshness comparable to spring water. In 1970, Marcel Rochas's wife, Hélène Rochas, paid tribute to her late husband by naming the fragrance after him. Eau de Roche thus became Eau de Rochas. It would go on to rank among the brand's iconic fragrances.

Eau de Rochas Eau de Toilette is a fresh, aromatic fragrance that evokes a sensory waterfall. At once citrusy, green and woody, its olfactory composition evokes vibrant, icy spring water. The Eau de Rochas fragrance for women is a classic of elegance and femininity. Delicately applied to the skin, it evokes the sensation of cool water on skin warmed by the sun. The fragrance is inspired by the beach pyjama, a pair of wide-legged trousers cinched at the waist, emblematic of the 1930s. It conjures up an evening on the Riviera, populated by pretty, carefree women, free like their era. In the cool of the evening, the flowers release their sensual aromas and mingle with the woody, green scents of the earth.

THE ICONIC EAU DE ROCHAS BOTTLE
Since its creation in 1948, the Eau de Rochas bottle has remained unchanged. Indeed, its original name, Eau de Roche, evokes water trapped within rock, which gushes out when the bottle is opened. The women's fragrance comes in a transparent, ribbed glass bottle, resembling a piece of rock eroded by water. The cap is shaped like a sphere, evoking a drop of water or a precious stone. Its transparency allows you to glimpse a lemon-coloured juice that recalls the colour of Eaux de Colognes, characteristic of aromatic fragrances. Inside, water seems to swirl, an olfactory cascade ready to burst forth, icy and invigorating. Today, the Eau de Rochas bottle has a slender shape. Its name is discreetly displayed in lettering more modern than the original.

A FRESH, AROMATIC FRAGRANCE
Launched in 1970, Eau de Rochas Eau de Toilette for women is an aromatic, citrus fragrance. At the time, Hélène Rochas commissioned perfumer Nicolas Mamounas to create the fragrance composition. He went on to create a cult fragrance that has remained unchanged ever since. The fragrance of Eau de Rochas opens with top notes of bergamot, lemon, mandarin and verbena. Both sweet and tangy, the citrus fruits create a feeling of elegant freshness. The heart note is a floral bouquet centred around the scents of narcissus, rose and jasmine. Finally, the fragrance's base expresses its aromatic character through a trail of oakmoss, white musk, vetiver and sandalwood.
