Where do I begin? As others have mentioned, this composition is difficult to describe, but it is extraordinary. I don't do score cards, but Guidance is a 10. Amouage has defied the laws of gravity when it comes to the note pyramid. Never have I ever seen olibanum or hazelnut listed as a top note. The show opens with an innocent pear note, but not long before a thick veil of hazelnut glaze consumes the senses. Despite 3 floral heart notes present, they are never acting alone as this fragrance remains gourmand throughout the entirety of wear. Just when you think it's too sweet, you are compelled to keep smelling because it's so addictive! It's gourmet dessert in a foreign country, but in the most sophisticated way.
Olibanum, a balsamic note that has an aroma of incense. Ambergris, a humid and earthy component. Sandalwood, woody accents and often powdery. These foundations all provide a unique balance and also assist in countering the sweeter elements in this creation. I applied this fragrance last night after a shower and yet it's lingering as if it were applied today. You can never escape the creamy, sultry, delectable sweetness. The tenacity is almost surreal. Although an EDP, this concentration would be considered Pure Perfume by designer standards. If you're wanting love from strangers and by "love" I mean compliments, dabble in Guidance.
