Courrèges Hyper Oud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Jean-Christophe Hérault. Hyper Oud opens with Ginger and Turmeric, and dries down to a base of Vanilla. Courrèges's Hyper Oud carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one's a proper divisive number, folks. Some reckon it's a bold, confident oud-vanilla combo, whilst others are calling it a cheap, nauseating mess. You'll either love it or hate it, so approach with caution before committing to a full bottle.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter
Also Works:
Spring Summer

Built on oud, vanilla and warm spicy - a composition that sits best in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

This is a massive scent that will get you noticed, making it less suitable for office wear. Its dense, warm, and seductive character makes it perfect for date nights and formal events, especially in colder weather. It's a bit much for casual daytime wear unless you want to make a statement.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

About

Hyper Oud kicks off with a spicy tang from turmeric and ginger, a vibrant, warm introduction that quickly gives way to a dense, earthy core. The central oud note here isn't your typical sharp or 'stanky' variety; it’s more blended, almost patchouli-like in its dryness. This deep, woody richness is then wrapped in a creamy, sweet vanilla, creating a powerful, enveloping scent that commands attention. It's warm, inviting, and notably substantial.
