Guidance 46 by Amouage was launched in 2024 and crafted by Quentin Bisch, building on the brand's tradition of blending traditional Middle Eastern ingredients with modern perfumery techniques. The composition opens with a bright burst of rose water and pear, which soon gives way to nutty hazelnut and bitter almond notes. At its heart, Guidance 46 features floral accords like osmanthus and jasmine sambac, underscored by the spicy warmth of frankincense and pink pepper. The base is rich with sandalwood, ambergris, and labdanum, creating a warm and enveloping finish.

Application Tips
Guidance 46 has strong sillage and eternal longevity, so one or two sprays are sufficient. The fragrance opens brightly but builds over time, making it ideal for daytime wear that transitions smoothly into evening.
