Discover Guidance by Amouage.
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 Ambergris: who are you, she asks, and you feel seen.
A spellbinding and novel interpretation of the Amouage triad of Rose, Frankincense and Ambergris, Guidance reads like a poem, smells like an embrace, and feels like a word of wisdom.

CHAPTER III : Escape Collection
Distilling this propitious moment in time and breathing new life into its iconic legacy, the third chapter of the Odyssey Collection adds four new Eaux De Parfum to its compendium of iconic scents
Each creation laces Royal Frankincense with a broad palette of rare ingredients in a deft display of tradition-steeped modernity. By exploring introspective themes, Lineage, Search, Guidance and Purpose speak of escapism, the strive to grow, the search for a new path and the finding of a new life – transformation at last.
Renaud Salmon, AMOUAGE's Creative Director, commented, “When exploring Oman, you can often feel like touching treasures in a very pure way. A lot of my ideas come from travelling alone, from going somewhere. The third chapter of The Odyssey Collection emulates this escapism and Oman's memorable redolence. This collection is a singular, introspective olfactory voyage that should stir successive feelings of curiosity with Lineage, courage with Search, inner triumph with Guidance and a sense of awakening with Purpose. By focusing this collection on the barren Omani island of Masirah, I wanted to pay tribute to Amouage’s roots in a contemporary language, staying true to the House’s ethos, or 'wave', to bring cultures and generations together.”

Transcendent fragrance
Faultless service just love this fragrance company so relieved to receive my order promptly being my now most expensive perfume and well worth it. For me the saffron gives this fragrance an edge to the fruit floral and wood notes, beautifully blended from beginning to end. The bottle is just lovely, even the box is beautifully embossed. Just a quick mention love the colour coding for the notes of the fragrances.🥰

Beautiful luxury sandalwood!
I love it! smells a bit sweet and stronger in the winter time than spring.
The sandalwood here is so addictive. If you love Amouage brand, just buy it.

Sublime
I adore this gem of a fragrance. My order from Libertine only arrived a short time ago & I am now enveloped in the splendour that is Guidance. As usual, Libertine's customer service and care is exceptional! This fragrance is so heavenly and is reminiscent of Inedite by Lubin, which I have missed since it is no longer available. Honestly, please try this!

Masterpiece!
Another masterpiece by Quentin Bisch. Beautiful top note of Pear and middle notes of, Saffron, Rose and Jasmine Sambac. In the base, Vanilla and Akigalawood. It’s intriguing …a light, fruity floral fragrance beautifully blended and feminine that could easily be a signature scent!

Pear, hazelnut and frankincense
I adore pear notes and the combination here with the hazelnut and frankincense is unique and incredible. It is a deep ripe pear scent, at least that is what I’m getting with all the other notes. Not as spicy as some of the other Amouage fragrances therefore has a very peaceful feel to it.
