Detuned Lead/Lazer sound?

Sound starts at 1:22

Talking about that high pitched detuned stab thing, been banging my head on this one for the longest time. Fairly sure you could do this in harmor with some envelopes on detune+harmonic pitch but my sound never comes close.
Like here's what my patch normally sounds:

As compared to

Like they only sound vaguely similar cause of that detuning effect but that's about it.
Any ideas guys?

Sorry if this is seems like an obvious question, terrible at sound design

Also obligatory corndance

Sounds like a saw/square from Massive at a high frequency with Parabolic distortion (in massive), a very fast env mod to the pitch at the start and a resonating reverb on it. Something like Iceverb from NI or that resonating reverb that comes with Ableton live.

Yup, you were mostly right!
Managed to get a similar sound with triangle and scream filter.
