What do reviewers say about Guidance and Stellar Amber?
Guidance is a statement fragrance, not a quiet one. It never truly shouts, instead drawing you in with its intimate, opulent warmth and lingering allure.Guidance
Sweet without apology, that's the whole point. If you wanted something restrained, you'd be shopping elsewhere. Worth it if you wanted Amouage Guidance but couldn't justify the price.Stellar Amber
