Diptyque Oyedo is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2000, created by Akiko Kamei. Oyedo opens with Lemon, Mandarin, Lime, and Yuzu, settles into a heart of Thyme, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes. Diptyque's Oyedo carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

Oyedo is a properly divisive scent - you'll either adore its zingy, candied citrus tang or recoil from its perceived mentholated medicinal vibe. It's lively, bright, and unapologetically playful, making it a true standout for those who dare.

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:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport

Its bright, refreshing, and often 'fizzy' character makes it perfect for casual wear and sports, as many users highlight its cooling effect. However, its bold, sometimes 'medicinal' opening and moderate performance make it less suited for formal settings or intimate dates.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Oyedo explodes with a blast of hyper-realistic, mouth-watering citrus: sharp yuzu, zesty lemon, and juicy mandarin. Beneath this effervescent opening, an aromatic thyme note emerges, adding a cooling, almost camphorous edge. The dry-down gently steers towards a soft, woody base, holding onto a sweet, candied fruitiness throughout, like a fizzy citrus chew, rather than a fresh slice.
