Blind buyers beware
Whilst not all Diptyque fragrances are for me, I can certainly appreciate them for what they are, and admire them for their elegance which is consistent with the brand design overall. Oyedo seemed to tick all the boxes for me as a lover of yuzu and citrus.

How wrong I was. Hit with an overpowering cloying sledgehammer of what smelled like an antiseptic orange-menthol cough drop, I was nauseated to the point that I had to scrub it off my wrist as soon as possible. Waiting for the dry down didn’t help, as the medicinal vibes continued with the citrus cleaning product smell disappearing and leaving behind a menthol smell akin to a Vicks VapoRub ointment.

I have never scrubbed a fragrance from my skin before, but this was the first. Disgustingly sweet, sharp and medicinal, this did not work on me at all.

OK, THIS IS HEAVEN...
---

to me anyway.

Whafting from the vial is the freshest scent of lime and something (?) sugary, but not sickening sweet. It's almost like lime and lily of the valley. But no, it's sugary. This questionable accord also smells menthol at times. It is very unique, I love it!

Turin and Sanchez describe it as "an anthranilic ester smell like Muscat gummy sweets from Japan", which doesn't help me since I've not smelled that, but it was helpful in that they mentioned they'd never smelled this note before.

Some very light wood (I guess it's cedar) comes along next (heart), and it is still wonderful. It stays like that, for the duration.

Diffusion (I like this term best) can be smelled at least a foot away from skin, and it lasted at least ten

My summer top
This is my top citrus scents. Mix of citrus slices in the water with ice and mint and raspberries. No, it is not a lemonade, its barely sweet, only naturally with a sour hint. It has something in the liquid that actually feels like menthol and cools the skin what I appreciate for hot summer days. I love overall aesthetics of Diptique brand. Particularly this one was inspired by medieval Japan.

surprisingly approachable?
1/5 of my Discovery Set:

From the bottle, the scent seems to be sophisticated like citrus rinds, but on my skin, it smelled like a bag of Welch's fruit snacks - particularly grape. I assume the latter smell was from the raspberry note, but I am not disappointed. Honestly, I am rather amused at how others perceived the same, berry gummy scent on my skin. The fun of perfume for me is how different scents can be, how they can be whole emotions in a bottle.

I would definitely recommend a test trial, because not everyone would be amused at the mature notes turning into a lunch box additive, but I enjoy this scent as a casual spray here-and-there.

Cough drops in a spray bottle
My skin chemistry usually works well with citrus scents, they typically become sweeter and rounder rather than screechy sharp, even more bitter citrus notes. Like yuzu, which I’ve been feeling lately.

So on paper, Oyédo sounded like it would be right up my alley, and on the tester strip it smelled lovely indeed: a fresh, citrusy, somewhat cheeky fragrance.

Alas, to my surprise, my skin disagreed. It was as if I’d sprayed cough drops from a bottle! An offensively sweet and sharp lemon-menthol attack on the olfactory senses that I had to wash off.

A peculiar – and unfortunate – reaction. I haven’t experienced this with any other perfume with the same notes.

On paper, it’s a dead ringer for the red-yellow Trolli gummy worms.

A small studio that used to create unique scents in the past, since being acquired by Manzanita, is creating ordinary scents like Oyedo.

Opens with a realistic, citrus peel scent with a hint of petitgrain. It quickly transforms into a bitter, medicinal profile.

A very pronounced sweet citric Summer fragrance, balanced by a warm and soft spicy/woody base. Mandarins all over... 100% unisex!

I don't get medicinal, just a slightly bitter citrus with raspberry. Candy-like. Thyme not perceptible for me. Just OK.

Bright sweet candy citrus with pithy bitterness. Like peeling an mandarin orange by hand. Lovely, fresh, joyful, but brief.
