Botanicae Expressions Highlands is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022. Highlands opens with Earl Grey Tea and Juniper, settles into a heart of Cedar and Tuberose, and dries down to a base of Musk, Leather, Oakmoss, and Hay. Botanicae Expressions's Highlands carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

Divisive and aptly named, Highlands is either a well-executed green, woody tuberose or a marketing misstep depending on whether you expect actual Scottish heather. Either way, it's a solid, natural-smelling scent.

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.

About

Highlands opens with an invigorating burst of juniper and Earl Grey tea, offering a fresh, aromatic welcome. The heart unfolds into a sophisticated blend of clean tuberose and dry cedar, creating a nuanced floral-woody core. As it settles, a prominent hay note emerges, grounded by earthy oakmoss, supple leather, and a soft, clean musk, painting a picture of a pastoral landscape.
