£40 for 50ml. Initio charge £275 for 90ml of High Frequency. High Wave is Aromara's take on it, built at up to 35% Extrait.
Sweet almond and white flowers. Jasmine and magnolia sit on top, lifted by hedione, the material that makes jasmine feel airy. Underneath, heliotrope and vanilla go soft and powdery, and sandalwood keeps it smooth. Marzipan in a clean white shirt.
Wearers of the original often call it a softer, more floral Pegasus. We make a Pegasus Exclusif too: Ascendant. Same almond family.
Up to 35% Extrait. 60-day money-back.

FAQ
Is High Wave a good dupe of High Frequency?
High Wave follows the original's almond, jasmine and magnolia over a powdery heliotrope and vanilla base. Built at up to 35% Extrait. Initio sell the 90ml at £275. We make it with oils from some of the world's leading fragrance houses, the kind that also make for designer and niche brands.
What is hedione?
A jasmine material first used in perfume in the 1960s. It smells fresh and glowing rather than heavy, and makes florals feel bigger. Initio build their Carnal Blends collection, which High Frequency belongs to, around a large dose of it.
Is it like Pegasus?
Reviewers of the original compare it to Parfums de Marly Pegasus more than anything else. It shares the almond and heliotrope, with more white flowers. For the Pegasus side, try Ascendant, our take on Pegasus Exclusif.
How long does High Wave last?
High Wave is an Extrait de Parfum, made at up to 35%. How long any scent stays depends on its notes, your skin and the weather: fresh, citrus and aquatic scents lift off sooner, while woods, amber, musk and vanilla stay with you for longer. Spray onto moisturised skin at your pulse points and let it dry without rubbing.
What if I do not like it?
Try it. If you are not convinced, you have 60 days to send it back lightly tested, with at least 90% left, and get your money back. You cover the return postage. Full terms are in our refund policy.
