Description
Guidance 46 by Amouage, crafted by Quentin Bisch, is a harmonious blend that opens with the freshness of rose water and pear, accompanied by the nutty warmth of bitter almond and hazelnut, and a touch of spicy pink pepper. The heart reveals a luxurious bouquet of rose, saffron, and jasmine sambac, wrapped in the richness of osmanthus. The base of sandalwood, vanilla, and ambergris creates a deep, woody finish, making this fragrance a versatile and sophisticated choice for those who appreciate a balanced yet complex scent.
