Madame Rochas first appeared in 1960 and reappeared in 1989 in its snd edition. The nose behind this perfume is Guy Robert, who put aldehydes, bergat, len and neroli at the top. The middle notes are flowery: jasmine, rose, tuberose, Lily-of-the-valley, Oriss root, ylang-ylang, violet and narcissus, whilst the base touches us with sandalwood, vetiver, musk, along with the accords of cedar, oakss and tonka beans. First edition represents a replica of an 18th century bottle and is signed by Madam Rochas herself. The new edition package was designed by Pierre Dinand and is available in 30, 50 and 100 ml edt. Rochas began as a French fashion house founded by Marcel Rochas in 1925. From 1925 until 1953, when the haute couture division closed its doors, Marcel Rochas dressed women in forward-thinking fashions that also celebrated traditional feminine silhouettes. Anticipating the needs of dern women in the early-to-mid 20th century, Rochas was the first to design 2/3-length coats and skirts with pockets. He also created the "mermaid" dress, which continues to inspire women's dress designs today. The company expanded its offerings to include fragrances, starting with a trio of perfumes, Avenue Matignon, Air Jeune and Audace, in 1934. The perfumes were taken off the market during World War II, but the company's st faus fragrance, the classic Femme, was launched in 1943 and remains a perennial best-seller.
