The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2010 by Rochas and crafted by Jean-Michel Duriez, Eau de Rochas Fraiche is a captivating blend of freshness and warmth. The composition opens with the bright zest of bergamot, which cuts through to reveal water notes that evoke a crisp morning dew. This refreshing start gives way to a heart of white flowers and iris, creating an ethereal floral presence. The base notes of liatris, oak moss, and musk ground the fragrance in earthy warmth, making it both vibrant and comforting.
Apply this fragrance with one or two sprays on pulse points. The citrus and water notes will be most prominent initially but will gradually give way to the powdery and earthy base notes over time. This makes it perfect for daytime wear, where its fresh opening pairs well with the warmth of an office setting.
