Hermes Rocabar eau de toilette for men offers a woody-ambery composition with a dry and spicy character. It is intended for men seeking a fragrance based on cedar, cypress and benzoin. Its scent trail is subtle yet distinctly present.

Fragrance and Composition

• The woody and ambery character is accompanied by a spicy, dry olfactory impression.
• The key fragrance materials include warm cedar, vivid cypress and balsamic benzoin.
• The INCI lists Pogostemon cablin patchouli oil and Juniperus virginiana Virginia cedarwood oil.
• The composition also includes lemon and bergamot peel oils.
• The concentration corresponds to an eau de toilette.
• The fragrance was created in 1998 by perfumer Gilles Romey.

The result is a men's composition with a distinctly dry, spicy and woody-ambery profile.

Packaging

• The bottle contains 100 ml and the product is made in France.
• Its shape is inspired by the lanterns of historic carriages.
• The black cap references a riding helmet in its appearance.
• The back label is decorated with a drawing by Philippe Dumas and bears the Parfums-Fondateurs collection designation.
• The name Rocabar combines the English word "rug" with the French expression "à barres," meaning striped.
• The name was inspired by a traditional horse blanket made from saffron-coloured wool with red and blue stripes, produced in the Hermès workshops.

Both the packaging and the name connect the fragrance to equestrian motifs and the craft heritage of the house of Hermès.
