Rochas Tocade Eau de Toilette 100ml Spray Kiehl's and Pour Homme — aTocade opens with a bright burst of mandarin and aldehydes that sharp, almost soapy top note that catches you first thing. It settles into a heart of jasmine and rose, warm but not heavy, before drying down to amber and musk that sits close to skin. 100ml EDT spray, the kind of fragrance that works equally well as a morning wake up or a reapply mid afternoon. Four to six hours from skin, longer on clothes if you layer it.
