🌸 47. Amouage Guidance 46 Review – Softer Summer Floral (Samples Available)

Some scents feel like dreams you carry back with you—soft impressions of light, petals, and warmth.  Guidance 46 by Amouage is one of those rare fragrances: a delicate memory of a summer day, reimagined in scent.

I’ve written about this beauty before, but it deserves another moment in the light. If you're looking for a sweeter, smoother version of the original Guidance, Guidance 46 might be the one. The pear note is still there—only riper and more golden, like fruit stewed gently in late sunlight. Rosewater softens the heart, while a quiet whisper of spice keeps things warm. The drydown is soft, cocooning, and comforting.

This poem captures the joyful, dreamlike quality I associate with Guidance 46:

“What if you slept”
by Samuel Taylor Coleridge

What if you slept
And what if
In your sleep you dreamed
And what if
In your dream you went to heaven
And there plucked a strange and beautiful flower
And what if when you awoke
You had that flower in your hand?
Ah, what then?

🌸  That’s exactly how Guidance 46 wears to me—like something dreamt and gently brought back to life. A soft glow on skin, a trace of beauty you weren’t expecting, but now can’t imagine being without.
