Guidance 46

About the perfumer – Quentin Bisch → Guidance turned into pure luxury armor. Guidance 46 by Amouage is the intensified Exceptional Extrait of the iconic Guidance, created by Quentin Bisch and launched in 2024. Pear, rose water, hazelnut and bitter almond open into rose, osmanthus, saffron and sambac jasmine, resting on a creamy, woody base of sandalwood, vanilla and ambergris. The Story Guidance 46 takes its name from its 46% perfume oil concentration, making it richer, smoother and more powerful than the original. Amouage presents it as a study in light and shade, fragility and strength, subtlety and ostentatiousness, and ages it for four weeks (two of maceration, two of maturation). How It Smells Opening An intense blend of pear, rose water, hazelnut, bitter almond and frankincense: fruity, creamy and nutty, immediately addictive. Heart Lush rose, osmanthus, saffron and jasmine sambac bloom into a radiant floral richness. Dry Down Sandalwood, vanilla, ambergris, labdanum, Akigalawood, Georgywood and cypriol build a creamy woody base with great depth, richer, smoother, creamier and more regal than the original Guidance.
