What wearers say

“The difference I'd say is that this has a pronounced nuttier opening with the added bitter almond note & less frankincense. Longevity & projection is about the same as the original to me, however, it's more refined and wears airier which I can tell Quentin lately has been mastering the art in creating loud, but soft perfumes as seen in MAB Tilia. The dry down is just as if not more addictive than the original. I can justify the price bc I can wear this all year round esp in the heat rn while the original I typically reach for in the cooler months.”

“Silage is impressive and it last upto a day on your skin. It’s way more feminine but I don’t mind to smell like that sweet old and charming lady. A little bit pricey but worth it and complements will make you forget the cost. Worth it!”
A member of a leading fragrance community
“Since I own and enjoy the original Guidance, I decided to add the 46 version to my collection as well. It opens with pear, bitter almond and a generous dose of pink pepper. Unfortunately, I can’t detect any nutty notes, which is a shame. After a while, a rosewater-like nuance joins the composition. The base is woody and well balanced. Overall, it’s very creamy and very close to the original. Longevity on my skin is around six hours and the projection is very good. In my opinion, they’re not different enough to justify owning both bottles at this price.”
