An Angry Gorilla in a Tuxedo, who speaks fluent French instead of making inarticulate cries, said an expert (A connoisseur of Fragrance).

It is the third men's fragrance released by the ROCHAS PARFUMS house.

The Product's color is Gold

An unusual blend of aromatic notes, floral notes, and exotic woody notes.

Rochas (1925), one of the oldest and finest perfume houses on planet Earth, created some of the most famous fragrances of all time.

The Indonesian island of Sulawesi (Celebes), whose largest city, MACASSAR, is a prominent port in the region, gave the fragrance its name.

Box in a shade of gray, which was the original shade, with MACASSAR ROCHAS in black, on two lines in the center, on a white-and-burgundy label, with a burgundy inner protective insert.

Beautiful, transparent, heavy glass bottle.

Black cap shaped like a Greek column capital.

The packaging and exquisite glass bottle were designed by French sculptor Serge Mansau.

The heavy, transparent bottle was made by French craftsmen at Pochet du Courval, bearing the HP trademark, a global leader in glass packaging for luxury fragrances.

The product was distributed in Greece by the perfumery HELLENICA COSMETICS SA (CHEIMARAS - PARADISOS - AMAROUSIOU), and we had exclusive sales rights as authorized distributors. 

PERFUMER : Nicolas Mamounas (Nikos Mamounas, a Greek from Egypt, ROCHAS's fragrance design director for two decades), in collaboration with Roger Pellegrino.
