Alexandria Fragrances Highlands is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2019. Highlands opens with Spicy Notes and Lavender, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood and Ambergris. Alexandria Fragrances's Highlands carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a divisive clone, aiming for a classic barbershop feel. Some reckon it's better than the original, others think it misses the mark entirely. Definitely one to try before you buy.

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.

While some reviewers wear this year-round and for every occasion, its mature and sophisticated character, driven by warm spicy and amber accords, makes it less ideal for casual sports and better suited to formal settings or evening dates. The barbershop clean feel lends itself well to office wear, but its bold presence might be a tad much if oversprayed.

About

Highlands takes you on a journey through a rugged landscape with its dominant warm spicy and amber accords. Lavender and woody notes provide a classic fougere-barbershop vibe, while a hint of animalic depth ensures it's more than just a clean shave. The spicy core, with whispers of clove, gives it a robust character, balanced by a touch of powdery softness that appears in the dry down.
