Guidance Eau de Parfum by Amouage is a dream-like and captivating expression of the delicate strength of femininity. Heady, regal and enveloping, the fragrance offers a spellbinding interpretation of the signature Amouage triad of rose, frankincense and ambergris - reading like a poem, smelling like an embrace and feeling like a word of wisdom.
The fragrance opens with luminous pear alongside the resinous warmth of frankincense and creamy hazelnut, creating an intriguing balance of freshness and richness. At the heart, saffron meets rose, jasmine sambac and velvety osmanthus, forming an opulent floral bouquet with warm, subtly fruity nuances.
As Guidance settles on the skin, cistus labdanum and sandalwood create a rich, textured foundation, joined by Akigalawood, ambergris and vanilla. The result is a deeply enveloping fragrance that balances floral radiance with woods, resins and sensual warmth.
