Rochas Byzance (2019) Eau de Parfum 60ml is a modern reissue of Rochas's classic 1987 women's fragrance — relaunched in 2019 with a refreshed but recognisably classical floral-oriental profile. Built around a richly composed white-floral-amber signature, it captures the spirit of the original with contemporary clarity, and remains housed in a beautiful jewel-toned bottle that nods to the brand's archival aesthetic.
About Rochas
Founded in Paris in 1925 by Marcel Rochas, the house began in haute couture before expanding into perfumery. The original Byzance, launched in 1987, was a celebrated 1980s floral-oriental classic, and the 2019 reissue brought the fragrance back into circulation for a contemporary audience.

Olfactory family: Floral Oriental | Original launch: 1987 | Reissued: 2019
Who it's for
Byzance suits women who like classical, full-bodied florals — those who appreciate vintage-style perfumery's bold sillage and complex composition. It is at its best in autumn and winter, ideal for evenings, formal occasions and statement wear.
How to use
- Hold the bottle around 15 cm from the skin.
