High Frequency

Boring linear and overpriced. I get mainly floral accord, almond and sweetness. Those 3 elements create a forgettable scent, that can be easily replaced by much cheaper designer scents

This is a pretty floral green almond fragrance that is slightly vanillic with a soft creamy (almost) lactonic sandalwood dry down. It's a pretty soft fragrance by Initio standards, but it lasts for hours.

Oh my Gaad! I’ve finally found a perfume I want to drowned in. This is what a grown, more sophisticated version of hypnotic poison is! I can’t stop smelling my arm. It’s soft, powdery, nutty with a hint of playdough. It smells mysterious and familiar at the same time. I am a minimalist and like to keep my collection small, but this will definitely be added in before the year is over!

I'm a guy who likes mainly masculine fragrances , but this is a prime example of an exception, genuinely a great fragrance to wear, even as a guy, starts sweet and nutty, and finishes with a more floral tune, plus the nuttines I would buy

Floral, metallic opening. Dries down do a more floral nutty scent with some wood notes. Initially I was thinking pure feminine fragrance, but the wood notes makes it more unisex. I probably won't buy a whole bottle, but I do like it.

Instant embracement of the Initios, catalogue particular quality right away, Extrait like, amazing first impression.

I like to think in the perfect utopian world, where I wear my Hypnotic Poison & my partner Pegasus, High Frequency is our luxurious high shine metallic silver Mazda 3's scent (recent generation / teal interior) with Trentemøller's Deceive streaming inside. perfectly genderless, modern & classy essence of whatever the H3ll this semi-plasticky sexiness of almond is... LOVE.. like DAMN!

Pretty much pegasus but with a much earthier almond note .. it comes off a bit too dirty to my nose but i love the DNA. A nutty vanilla that is lifted by white florals .. I'd still go for Pegasus though .. it feels a lot smoother .. that said, this lasts for an eternity.

Magnolia is my favorite white flower, and this is so far my favorite magnolia-centered perfume. I wouldn't say this is an almond scent, as you might think based on the notes. The almond is only there to enhance the flower, as the previous reviewer stated. This is a super creamy magnolia, slightly sweet and strongly addictive. To me, magnolia, like many other white flowers, can go into the "clean-dated" direction, as so many of us were used to smelling our mothers and their products full of jasmine, tuberose, lily, and magnolia, but this is such a well-blended contemporary take on it. This is the amazing woman who has nothing to lose and everything to win. Her attitude is unbeatable. Her vibe is so contagious that everyone wants a piece of her, even if they don't even like magnolias. Again, like with psychedelic love, I wouldn't give away this one to a woman under 30; it is not that "safe" for everyone.

High Frequency is one of Initio’s more playful yet psychologically “engineered” fragrances, built around the idea of emotional impact rather than traditional structure. It centers on a magnolia note paired with almond, which creates a creamy, slightly sweet floral profile that feels almost addictive. Unlike heavier Initio releases, this one is airy and uplifting—more about mood elevation than dominance. The opening gives you a bright, almost luminous floral tone, but quickly transitions into a soft, milky sweetness from the almond, which smooths out the composition. What’s interesting is how it sits between categories: it’s not a typical gourmand, not a pure floral, and not woody—it’s more of a soft-focus aura fragrance. The performance is moderate compared to heavier niche scents, but it leaves a noticeable scent bubble that feels clean, modern, and subtly seductive. Conceptually, Initio markets it as something that can influence emotional states, and whether or not you buy that, it does have a calming, almost euphoric vibe. The weakness is that it can feel a bit simple or even synthetic to some noses, especially if you’re used to dense, resin-heavy fragrances.

I love love this perfume, it smells very unique. Vey complex smell that changes over time, very deep and strong smell. I do recommend you spray it on your skin though if you're going to test it, it smells different from the bottle. I can see why people would put it down if they smell it from the bottle, but once you spray it on your skin that sharp initial smell slowly fades. I love that no one buys it, you really stand out because of how different it is.

Tried a spray on my arm, love the almond floral openings. But the drydown is so captivating but Ican't really pinpoint what notes I am getting that I kept sniffing my arm when I get a whiff of scent when I move my arm. I definitely need to try this scent again mt be sure. The price point is a factor for consideration though.

Reading some of the other reviews I feel like the opposite happened on my skin. I want the florals back! I got this as a sample from a boutique perfume shop here in Melbourne Lore Perfumery (We love), and as soon as I opened the box I was like wow, it smelled gorgeous. I got over excited thinking I'd missed some magical combo of Almond (don't like usually) and Magnolia with Sandalwood and Jasmine (love) - but after the initial gorgeous florals go something gross happens on my skin. It smells like an ashtray with cheap shampoo and a little bit of almond oil creaminess mixed in. Magnolia can smell a bit shampoo-esque to me where it's not blended well, but I do not know where the dirty ash/smoke is coming from. So disappointing. Maybe its the synthetic almond?

Not popular for a reason. People forgot what is that to have a good taste. But it’s ok. More bottles for us.

I was convinced that there is ylang-ylang and/or saffron in this, because it has clear parallels with Psychedelic Love and Side Effect- almost like a mix of the two. It smells creamy, with almond milk and white floral nuances, hinting in a feminine-leaning direction. Certain aspects, such as the rough, synthetic feel of some of the ingredients and the saffron-like accord, pull it more toward the masculine side, as well as a certain cologne-like/shaving foam/aftershave accord. The verdict, in my opinion, is unisex. I ranked it as “okay” because, to me, Psychedelic Love is a notch softer, less synthetic, and more feminine than High Frequency. That said, I can’t say I don’t somewhat enjoy this fragrance.

I love this and I'm not sure why it's not talked about more. the opening is a little jasmine heavy but after a few minutes the jasmine disappears and the beautiful drydown begins. almonds, magnolia, vanilla. creamy and comforting. amazing and full bottle worthy for me.

It’s a lovely scent once it dries down, but something about the initial spray reminds me of old lady. On another note, to my nose, the overall scent is very heavy on the magnolia. I like it but it might not be for me.

This is absolutely gorgeous smell. It’s fresh, flowery, (can sense a bit almond milk like scent) and it’s SEXY. I can’t describe how seducing it smells. After spraying on clothes it stays for hours , if not an entire day , it creates an aroma bubble around you. Just gorgeous. You can literally sense those high frequencies around, but there is a twist in my opinion: it is not an innocent frequency; definitely high because of something not so pure , if you know what I mean:). Verdict : Long lasting , beast mode on clothes What you see in notes is what you will get Can be worn whole day , any occasion Despite its pure notes it is very much sexy fragrance

MBTI: ISTP, ISFP Personality: a quiet sporty young male person, probably a swimmer, with a just-get-it-done personality Basically, the quiet, good-looking black-haired guy on the team that you had a crush on during highschool. You met him for an assignment after his swimming practice a couple of times, and your heart beat a bit too fast. Years later, though nothing ever happened between you two, sometimes scents of chlorine still remind you of your springtime school heartthrob. To me, this smells like something inbetween a fresh jasmine flower oil and a blue male deodorant. Something in the fragrance really smells fizzy, sea-like and a tad woody, like an electric blue shower gel oozing from it's bottle. On the other hand, after wearing it a few times I can clearly recognise the jasmine oil and the slight powdery facets, but it's still ultimately overshadowed by this male shower gel vibe. It reminds me of swimming in a chlorine pool. That being said, I like it. It's definitely a unique scent for me, and I find it to be quite enjoyable in the way male shower gels are. It is quite synthetic however, mostly because of this shower gel vibe, and less so due to any plasticky undertones. Something about it is really electric and reminiscent of pools... If you're a fragrance collector that doesn't mind jasmine or shower gels of unnatural colours, I'd say this is probably a fun try, but I am quite hard pressed to imagine a person who would need a whole bottle of this. If anything, such a person would probably benefit more from being redirected to Sauvage or the Prada Luna collection, but I think most people would consider this a standard nice young masculine scent without as much as batting an eye. As it dries down the powdery almond/heliotrope and floral facets come out a bit more, but this strong and soapy-like fizzy scent stays dominant, leaving a very puzzling impression on my nose. I still think I would prefer this on a man, as it seems both clean and a bit sweet so it would be nice for a hug.

I haven’t enjoyed any initio fragrances I’ve tried. Very chemically, unpleasant. This gives rubber vibes.

This really grew on me. For me, High Frequency is a starchy, milky, fresh corn note with a powdery heliotrope dry down. There’s a faint hint of young, raw almond, but more like almond flour (for baking). It’s very pretty and bright, like spring time. It’s going on my wish list.

The almond is very plastic-y and synthetic, which is a shame - otherwise, I believe it would have been a good one. The price point for a synthetic-smelling fragrance is very high...

High Frequency is a creamy almond floral, but androgynous. There is nothing squarely masculine or feminine in this scent, but it still smells like it's a fragrance for human skin, not a room spray. The closest fragrance to this one is Pegasus, but from what I remember that was sharper and definitely masculine. This perfume is interesting and hard to pinpoint, the almond is noticeable but Initio's DNA and the hedione they always use keeps it from going full marzipan. I don't love it on myself, it's missing something.

unfortunately, the jasmine + synthetic almond tag-team proved to be just enough to make me ill. indolic potpourri meets nutty bug spray. zero redeeming qualities to my nose; does not measure up to the marzipan comparisons. scrubber

This is lovely fragrance for women and I love its flowery and powdery smell. However I tried it in humid and hot weather so I guess I didn’t get that much of sillage and longevity. I bet this will be really gorgeous if used in cold climate.

High Frequency is a pleasant almond-vanilla fragrance that, at first, strongly reminds me of Pegasus by PdM and Hypnotic Poison by Dior, thanks to the prominent almond note. However, while Dior feels enveloping and intimate and Pegasus – sharp and sandalwoody, High Frequency leans more floral and attention-grabbing (in the opening). As it dries down on a blotter, the scents become so similar it's easy to confuse them. I can clearly pick up magnolia beneath the almond — and since I tend to associate magnolia with functional scents, this perfume comes across to me as very “body care”-like, reminiscent of a luxurious body cream or high-end shower gel. This is my impression of the fragrance from the first application and how it smells on a blotter. I’m not sure what’s going on with my skin lately, but it seems to absorb the top notes as if they were never there — within ten minutes, all that’s left is a sharp sandalwood base. I’ll set it aside until winter and give it another try in cooler weather. For now, I’ll stick with my beloved (and more wallet-friendly) Dior.

Floral Pegasus has notes very similar to Pegasus but with added florals. It’s beautiful , I love it, and I love Pegasus too. This should be my girl’s scent, and I’d wear Pegasus myself. But honestly, a man can totally wear this. I’d definitely wear it—it’s a feminine-leaning unisex fragrance. The opening was a bit confusing but not unpleasant, and the dry down is gorgeous.

Nothing to like or dislike here. Smell about nothing

Selling my brand new bottle unboxed and unused. Please DM me with inquiries. I'm in Miami.

Super basic, creamy almond with a touch of jasmine and some lingering butter. I have tried a lot from Initio and this one of the most underwhelming scents from them imo.
