The Story

Launched in 1948, Moustache Eau de Toilette by Rochas is a chypre fragrance created by Edmond and Theresa Roudnitska. It opens with the bright freshness of lemon, bergamot, and lavender, before transitioning into a heart of floral notes like geranium, carnation, and jasmine. The base combines woody elements such as oakmoss, cedar, and amber with the warmth of honey and vanilla, creating an intriguing blend of fresh and rich scents.

Apply two sprays to the chest and wrists. The fresh top notes are prominent for the first hour but gradually allow the floral and woody base to shine through, making it perfect for daytime wear.

Edmond Roudnitska portrait

Edmond Roudnitska is remembered today as one of the most important perfumers in history: as a ""perfumer composer"" and the inventor of modern perfumery. His encounter in the 1950s with Serge Heftler-Louiche, the founder of Parfums Christian Dior and Frédéric Malle’s grandfather, was decisive. Together they created many legendary perfumes: “Eau Fraîche”, “Diorissimo”, “Diorella”, and most famous of all, “Eau Sauvage”, whose launch coincided with the public’s recognition of Edmond as the first “nose” of the perfume industry.Edmond began his career as a chemist at Roure Bertrand Dupont, where he developed an encyclopedic knowledge of natural and synthetic raw materials, as well as a distinctive minimalist style, which led to his legendary, secret masterpiece, “Le Parfum de Thérèse”. Only she, his wife, was allowed to wear it; but as a token of their shared family history, and their mutual trust, she entrusted the formula to Frédéric Malle after Edmond’s death.
