FAQs

Each scent is built unconventionally—without the traditional top, heart, and base structure. We don’t follow the rules of perfumery. We follow the feeling. These are modern, layered fragrances that evolve with your skin and your story.
Scent is a story—yours. Start with the Discovery Set, or take our fragrance quiz online to find the perfumes that speak to your mood, your skin, and your chaos. You can also layer scents—our Duets are designed to wear alone or together.
They’re for humans. Richard Rochon fragrances are designed for complexity, not categories. If it resonates with you, it’s yours.
Yes—and that’s the point. These are not linear or predictable scents. They shift with your skin, the weather, your mood. What you smell at first may not be what you smell an hour later. That’s part of the pleasure.
Absolutely. Some fragrances are designed as Duets—two scents that stand strong alone and transform when worn together. But the whole collection plays well in layers. We encourage experimentation. No one is one thing.
We recommend starting with our Discovery Set or a 20ml size to test how the scent wears on your skin. Some are bold, some whisper. All are nuanced.
We use both. Richard Rochon is a mixed media perfumer. Our fragrances combine beautiful naturals and high-performing safe synthetics—because that’s what makes a scent last, project, and unfold with character.
We currently ship to the contiguous 48 states, plus Hawaii and Alaska. Standard shipping is free on orders over $75. Expedited options are available for an additional fee. Orders ship the next business day after they’re received.
Fragrance is deeply personal—so we don’t accept returns on opened bottles. But we want you to love what you wear. Samples and Discovery Sets are the best way to explore before committing. 2ml bottles and 20ml bottles are also an easy way to explore the collection.
