Guidance by Amouage is a Floral Fruity fragrance for women and men. Guidance was launched in 2023. The nose behind this fragrance is Quentin Bisch. Top notes are Pear, Hazelnut and Olibanum; middle notes are Osmanthus, Rose, Saffron and Jasmine Sambac; base notes are Sandalwood, Vanilla, Akigalawood, Ambergris and Labdanum. THE DELICATE STRENGTH OF FEMININITY An ivory tower wreathed in shreds of clouds, dewy mists of fragile Pear, inviting Almond Milk and beads of Frankincense draw the outlines of a dreamful haven. A princess whispers you in and leads the way to a lush garden where Osmanthus blossoms diffuse their heady apricot scent. A fountain gleams in the centre, its marble edge covered in scarlet roses whose voluptuous scent meets that of leathery Saffron threads laid on the floor. Through Jasmine screens, sultry and spent, the woman walks and there comes with her a scent of dark Vanilla and skinlike Sandalwood, of ambery Labdanum and purring hints of regal Orientalgris: who are you, she asks, and you feel seen. A spellbinding and novel interpretation of the Amouage triad of Rose, Frankincense and Orientalgris, Guidance reads like a poem, smells like an embrace, and feels like a word of wisdom.

Guidance 46 is a highly divisive fragrance that inspires passionate devotion or strong dislike with little middle ground. Those who connect with it praise its complex, creamy, woody-rose profile and addictive quality, though some experience batch inconsistencies affecting performance. The fragrance's challenging opening and intense character make it essential to sample before committing to a full bottle.
