Aaron Terence Hughes High Voltage is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Aaron Terence Hughes. High Voltage opens with Lemon, Orange, and Grapefruit, settles into a heart of Ambroxan and Amberwood, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood and Patchouli. Aaron Terence Hughes's High Voltage carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

High Voltage pairs a zesty grapefruit opening with a modern ambroxan and amberwood core. It is clean, bright and a touch mineral, and it sits squarely in the contemporary fresh-woody lane. Easy to wear, hard to dislike.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

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

Other declarable allergens

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

It opens with a sharp, juicy trio of grapefruit, lemon and orange that feels instantly zesty and awake. The heart is built on ambroxan and amberwood, which add a smooth, slightly salty-clean glow and give the citrus something to cling to. The base of patchouli and sandalwood is dry and woody rather than sweet. The result is a fresh, modern, woody-amber scent with plenty of energy, one that works as a confident daily choice.
