The story behind the bottle.
Byzance EDT 2017 Edition by Rochas is a warm and spicy oriental fragrance that captures the essence of opulent yet intimate luxury. Launched in 2017, this scent opens with aldehydes and green notes, creating an effervescent freshness that gives way to a heart of carnation, jasmine, and lily-of-the-valley. The base notes, including sandalwood, vanilla, and amber, ground the composition with their warm, enveloping presence. Byzance is a modern interpretation of classic oriental fragrances, blending traditional spices like cardamom and anise with fresh florals for a contemporary twist.
Apply this fragrance in small sprays to allow the layers to unfold naturally. The aldehydes provide an immediate freshness that fades into the richer heart and base notes over time. It’s best worn during cooler hours when the warmth of the spicy and woody accords can be fully appreciated.
