The difference mainly lies in age: The 1738 is a Napoleon grade, which is somehow equal to XO quality, that means that the youngest eaux-de-vie used in this blend are at least 6 years old. It costs round about $140, while the VSOP is less aged, where the youngest spirits in the blend were matured four 4 years in oak barrels. The price is also lower: around $50. Both of the Cognacs were made with grapes which come from the Grande and Petite Champagne growth area.
