Gulf Orchid Highnes is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025. Highnes opens with Saffron and Peach, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Violet, and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Cedar. Gulf Orchid's Highnes carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a bit of a let-down, to be frank. Don't fall for the 'Guidance dupe' claims - it's mostly scented water that vanishes quicker than a Friday night takeaway. Save your cash.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring

Its woody, powdery and yellow floral composition leans towards spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Given its reported extremely poor longevity and sillage, Highnes is best suited for very casual settings or wearing to bed, as reviewers suggest. It's too weak for dates or formal events, and just about acceptable for a non-intrusive personal scent in the office or during light sport.

About

Highnes opens with a fleeting whisper of saffron and peach, so shy you'll barely register them. The heart tries to bloom with a soft, powdery blend of jasmine, violet, and ylang-ylang, evoking a delicate yellow floral embrace. But before this gentle bouquet can truly settle, a faint woody cedar base attempts to ground it, ultimately struggling to leave any lasting impression. It's a quick flash of florals, fruit, and wood that fades almost instantly.
