Amouage New | Guidance 46

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Enthralling and beguiling, Guidance 46 Exceptional Extrait is a study in light and shade, fragility and strength, subtlety and ostentatiousness – paradoxes brought together with an immediacy that can be achieved only by the art of perfumery. Dosed at a staggering 46% concentration.

What makes Guidance 46 an “Exceptional Extrait”?

Usually, a higher perfume oil concentration means an increased performance of the fragrance (particularly longer-lasting scent), but the impact of oil concentration is much more complex and varies depending on each formula.

Eau de Cologne (EDC) 3% – 10% oils

Eau de Toilette (EDT) 5% – 15% oils

Eau de Parfum (EDP) 15% – 20% oils

Parfum / Extrait 20% – 30% oils

Amouage Guidance 46 – 46% exceptional oils

46% oil concentration, 4 weeks ageing: 2 weeks maceration, 2 weeks maturation

A fragrance is usually a mix of a concentrate (containing fragrant oils) and an alcoholic base. Some fragrances can also contain a bit of water and additives like liquid UV filters, stabilizers, or colourants. Therefore, fragrances with a higher fragrance concentration contain more perfume oils and less alcohol, and vice-versa.
