Madame Rochas
Description
The perfume opens on a note of neroli and classic flowers such as rose, jasmine, tuberose, lily of the valley and orange blossom.The powdery nuance of iris is enhanced by sandalwood and vetiver, while amber and musk give the perfume a delicate lingering trail.
History
Marcel Rochas passed away at the age of 55, so at 28, Madame Rochas became the youngest of CEOs in France.Back then, Madame Rochas was the first perfume named after a living person.It was launched at a vernissage of an exhibition on women's portraits. The perfume was inspired by two great classics: Chanel Nº5 and Arpege. But Madame Rochas is more powdery, less woody, and creamier with a more delicate amber and musk note.
Bottle
It replicates the salt bottles found in the 18th century. The lettering on the case is handwritten by Madame Rochas herself.

J'adore son côté poudré qui, actuellement, doit avoir du mal à trouver des adeptes au vu des dernières créations en parfumerie. Un parfum classe qui s'adresse à des femmes d'âge mur.
