Product Details

Guidance is a fragrance by Amouage that was launched in 2023. It is a complex fruity, woody fragrance tinged with florals, and contains notes of pear, frankincense, saffron, rose, and sandalwood. The fragrance is part of the Amouage triad of Rose, Frankincense, and Ambergris. The sillage and longevity of Guidance are incredible, and it lasts all day on the skin.

Positive

  • Guidance is a spellbinding and novel interpretation of the Amouage triad of Rose, Frankincense, and Ambergris.
  • The fragrance is complex and has a strong sillage and longevity.
  • It is a dreamy cloud of creamy florals and gourmand notes.
  • The fragrance is a great mass-appealing scent.
  • The scent is unique and smells like an embrace.

Negative

  • The fragrance is too sweet and cloying for some people.
  • The opening accord of Guidance is strong, nutty, and fruity, which some people may not like.
  • The hazelnut accord in the opening is raspy and scratchy.
  • On some people, the fragrance can turn into an odd milky, creamy, and nutty concoction that just screams synthetic.
  • The powder note in the fragrance can turn up and be overpowering.
