High Extract

Perfume Parlour High Extract is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2009. High Extract opens with Bergamot, Mandarin, Juniper, and Clary Sage, settles into a heart of Pepper, Cardamom, Violet Leaf, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Patchouli, Orris, and Vetiver. Perfume Parlour's High Extract carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

High Extract copies DKNY Men (2009) - the same crisp juniper-citrus opening over a peppery violet-leaf heart and a cedar-vetiver base. The budget version captures the woody-aromatic shape but reads flatter, with the cedar and vetiver less present than the original's long-lasting drydown.

About

High Extract opens crisp and aromatic, with bergamot, mandarin, juniper and clary sage giving the same fresh, green start that defines DKNY Men. A peppery heart of cardamom, violet leaf and jasmine carries through before a woody base of Virginia cedar, vetiver, orris root and patchouli settles in. Against the original the budget take is flatter and the cedar-vetiver base thinner, with sillage that stays close to the skin - though the DKNY itself is a skin-close, low-projection scent prized mainly for its long life. It remains a refined, easy-wearing woody-aromatic fragrance for spring and autumn, well suited to the office, casual days and dates.
