    What do reviewers say about 1968 and Guidance?

    Built for people who've learned that quiet is harder to ignore than loud. The green and tuberose combination is unusual, it could have gone sharp and screechy, but instead it goes creamy and cool.1968
    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
