A bright musk instantly refreshed by peppermint surrounded by base ambroxan.
Evocation of an emptied candy box, of a longing vessel imprinted with mint and the sugar icing that coats the inside, like the promise of a secret exchange. Through the muted, sensual desire of musk, split by the freshness of peppermint and enveloped in an am-broxan base, lingers the sweet intoxication of an anticipated emotion.
Designed by André Courrèges in 1970, the iconic bottle with 40% recycled glass has been revisited by Nicolas Di Felice. It bears the legendary AC logo at its center. Equipped with an unscrewable and recyclable pump, it is topped with a lacquered wooden cap and its cylindrical case is from sustainable forest.
A product consciously designed, sourced and manufactured in France.

In 2020, Courrèges revisited the geometric outlines of its iconic 1971 bottle – a formal hommage to the vinyl buttons that adorn its most timeless creations – to compile a range of seven fragrances for its ‘Colorama’ collection.
Perpetuating the ambitions of couturier-perfumer André Courrèges, the house now launches a collection of three bold eaux-de-parfums with subtly narrative dimensions, under the impetus of artistic director Nicolas di Felice.
“hyper”: from the ancient Greek ὑπέρhypér (“above, beyond”), indicating a superior position in space, in-tensity or property above the normal; expressing excess, the highest degree.
Beyond this superlative prefix and the complexity of the era that it symbolizes, lay the plu-ral emotions, the quest for an absolute, for an essence, that inhabit it. This quest binds the origins of perfume-making to the fundamental codes of the Courrèges house.
Like André Courrèges before him, Nicolas di Felice’s exclusive fragrances aim to define the archetypes of a generation. Grown from the roots of a memory, of an olfactory imprint, comes a cunning exercise on the tensions that animate each fragrance – infusing them with a resolutely contemporary complexity. Using essences that are synonymous of haute parfumerie – Musk, Leather and Oud – he conjures spontaneous yet subtle ‘instants’ of life that describe the successive episodes of an emotional encounter…
