The story behind the bottle.
Monsieur Rochas Eau de Cologne, launched in 1969 and crafted by perfumer Guy Robert, is an aromatic cologne that embodies the elegance and refinement of its time. The fragrance opens with a bright citrus-aromatic blend of lemon and bergamot, which gives way to a heart of lavender and sage, adding a fresh herbal complexity. The base notes of vetiver, cedar, and oakmoss bring earthy warmth, while cardamom and tobacco infuse the composition with subtle spiciness and depth.
Apply one or two sprays to your pulse points; the citrus top notes are bright but quick to fade. The earthy and woody base notes will persist through the day, making it an ideal choice for an office setting where you want a subtle yet lasting presence.
