Hyper Musc

I was SO close to blind buying this, I am very glad I did not though. I want this to work for me so badly. The bottle is so beautifully futuristic and chic, it would be a shining star in my fragrance cabinet. However the juice is just too weak to my nose. It's definitely a sweet minty vanilla, the musk base feels so ethereal and unique with ambroxan. I am obsessed with this to say the least. But at this price point (290 !!!!!) considering its very weak longevity/presence I would not say this is worth the splurge on a full bottle. There are definitely other fragrances with this scent profile out there. However I am testing this out of a dabber sample, I would imagine the full bottle sprayed about 10+ times on myself would be heavenly. But then you're running out of your $300 bottle within a year. I don't think I'll be purchasing a bottle anytime soon, considering my current fragrance 'budget'. However I cant say never, maybe one day a bottle will find its way to me on a second hand website or something. I sampled Le massager from Courreges at the same time and fell absolutely in love with that one as well and ordered a full bottle within a few days. Absolutely looking forward to trying the other offerings from Courreges.

I was not going to write anything significant, but upon researching this fragrance further, I realized there is nothing on the Internet as far as reviews! Now I have to review it lol. This is not what I was expecting, but it is good nonetheless. Certainly a skin scent. It is barely noticeable. However, it is very sexy. I do get the empty mint can. It has a molecular quality that is very attractive as well. Yes it is modern. Yes it is cool. My issue is the price. For $310 I want it to project more. I understand the more it costs more exclusive the fragrance becomes. We are getting in the territory of really high-end fragrances. I just can't see myself purchasing this over something like reflection or symphonium. Definitely for the Younger crowd which I like. Does not smell dated whatsoever. It matches the fashion brand. It's cool. I wish I could afford it on top of everything else I want. If I have to be selective, I don't think this edges out. It would be a great primer. Similar to molecule. Mint vanilla primer.

On card it smells exactly like Slogan, Messenger etc, a bland ambroxan overdose with some musk and vanilla. Thankfully on skin (while it's still the usual musk + ambroxan, and doesn't justify the ridiculous price) it's giving me... ... minty doll heads! Very bizarre and very fitting in the Courrèges line. Manages to be strange but easy to wear. Update: Or is it? Actually it has a nauseating plastic undertone than I notice more and more as it dries down. Sort of like elastic bands, and very bothersome. This is my least favourite Courrèges, it's pissing me off so now I have to scrub it off.

Such a simple, cozy composition! Creamy, milky vanilla on a bed of white musk topped this a fresh mint leaf. Like the softest, most subtle Junior Mint or York Peppermint Patty. She's pretty fleeting, and I only get the mint on the first whiff, then it immediately fades away into a light whipped cream accord. The entirety of this fragrance is so slight and fleeting that I couldn't justify buying a whole bottle given the price, but it is so comforting and inoffensive! Chloe @beatlegirll on Tik Tok described it how she "imagines Snoopy would smell" and that resonated with me sooo much <3

For me this is the best of the trio of ‘hyper’. The oud is nice but not special, the cuir is an overdose of the almond accord but this one is great. A blast of mint and musk in the opening and it settles down to a very nice spicy vanilla/musk combo. A bit overpriced but special enough to warrant the purchase. Anyways it was for me...
