About the perfumer – Quentin Bisch →

A modern fairy tale in a bottle: pear, hazelnut and rose over a creamy, glowing base. Guidance by Amouage, released in 2023 and created by perfumer Quentin Bisch, became an instant sensation for its blend of pear, hazelnut, sambac jasmine, rose, saffron, sandalwood and creamy woods. Bold, emotional and magnetic, it feels luxurious and distinctly feminine.

The Story

Guidance reinterprets Amouage's signature triad of rose, frankincense and ambergris, reading, as the house puts it, like a poem and smelling like an embrace. The delicate strength of femininity is its theme, told in a dreamlike progression from a sweet, nutty opening, through a garden of osmanthus, rose and saffron, to a warm, enveloping base.

How It Smells

Opening
A striking contrast of juicy pear and creamy hazelnut with a veil of frankincense, sweet, smoky and instantly addictive.

Heart
A lush floral heart of rose, sambac jasmine and osmanthus blooms with richness and sensuality, while saffron adds warmth and intrigue.

Dry Down
Sandalwood, ambergris, Akigalawood, vanilla and cistus give smooth, creamy woody depth. The overall effect is creamy, fruity, floral and musky, and highly luxurious.

A melody you cannot stop listening to: sparkling citrus, ripe fruit and creamy white florals. Dolce Melodia is a radiant Eau de Parfum from Sospiro in which vibrant fruits and elegant florals meet creamy woods and sensual musk. Inspired by harmony and emotion, it unfolds like a melody: layered, expressive and luminous. Elegant yet playful, it is a modern luxury scent.

The Story

Sospiro takes classical music as its muse, and Dolce Melodia is presented as the melody you cannot stop listening to. It is a sweet, fruity-floral composition that pairs a luminous citrus opening with a lush heart and a warm, velvety base.

How It Smells

Opening
A juicy citrus-fruity burst: mandarin and orange feel bright and slightly sparkling, while saffron adds a subtle exotic twist.

Heart
Almost at once the scent turns lush and mouthwatering. Pear and blackcurrant blend with creamy white florals, rose, jasmine and gardenia, rich but airy, never heavy, and beautifully smooth.

Soft, creamy and slightly sweet, sandalwood, vanilla and white musk wrap everything into a warm, skin-like finish.

An olfactory journey into Arabian luxury. Liwa by Widian sets golden saffron, luminous jasmine and bergamot over warm amber wood, then settles into sandalwood, patchouli, vetiver and smoky oud incense. Rich, elegant and deeply captivating, it is boldly refined.

The Story

Liwa is an extrait de parfum from Widian, the Abu Dhabi-based house that builds its perfumes around the oud, amber, incense and rare flowers of the Arabian world. It has a regal Middle Eastern character, but one that is refined and modern rather than overpowering.

How It Smells

Opening
Rich, mysterious and immediately luxurious. Saffron, jasmine, bergamot and artemisia give a spicy-floral radiance, golden saffron meeting smooth jasmine and aromatic herbs, exotic, polished and very high-end.

Heart
Amber wood, white flowers and geranium form a warm, elegant heart, silky and opulent, balancing floral softness with glowing amber richness.

Dry Down
Cedarwood, patchouli, sandalwood, vetiver and oud incense settle into a smoky, resinous, woody base.

About the perfumer – Quentin Bisch →

Guidance turned into pure luxury armor. Guidance 46 by Amouage is the intensified Exceptional Extrait of the iconic Guidance, created by Quentin Bisch and launched in 2024. Pear, rose water, hazelnut and bitter almond open into rose, osmanthus, saffron and sambac jasmine, resting on a creamy, woody base of sandalwood, vanilla and ambergris.

The Story

Guidance 46 takes its name from its 46% perfume oil concentration, making it richer, smoother and more powerful than the original. Amouage presents it as a study in light and shade, fragility and strength, subtlety and ostentatiousness, and ages it for four weeks (two of maceration, two of maturation).

How It Smells

Opening
An intense blend of pear, rose water, hazelnut, bitter almond and frankincense: fruity, creamy and nutty, immediately addictive.

Heart
Lush rose, osmanthus, saffron and jasmine sambac bloom into a radiant floral richness.

Dry Down
Sandalwood, vanilla, ambergris, labdanum, Akigalawood, Georgywood and cypriol build a creamy woody base with great depth, richer, smoother, creamier and more regal than the original Guidance.

Imperium by Electimuss London is the scent of modern success. Sparkling citrus, elegant florals, creamy vanilla, and rich woods come together in a fragrance that feels powerful yet refined. Versatile, magnetic, and unmistakably luxurious, Imperium commands attention with quiet confidence.

What It Smells Like

Imperium opens bright, sparkling, and instantly luxurious with a burst of bergamot sharpened by aromatic coriander. The first impression is clean, uplifting, and energetic—fresh citrus with a refined spicy edge rather than a simple fruity freshness. Brand materials describe it as an aromatic woody citrus fragrance.

As it develops, elegant white florals begin to appear, giving the fragrance a creamy sophistication. Notes commonly listed include jasmine, lily, saffron, tuberose, neroli, and rose, which create a smooth floral heart without making it overly sweet or feminine. It feels polished, modern, and highly wearable.

The dry down is where Imperium becomes addictive—vanilla, musk, amber, guaiac wood, patchouli, and oud create a rich yet clean finish. The vanilla is creamy and sensual, while woods keep it masculine and confident. It smells expensive, versatile, and effortlessly attractive.

Fragrance Notes: 

Bergamot, coriander, Rose, lily, saffron, jasmine, neroli, tuberose, Amber, musk, Madagascan vanilla, Guaiac wood, oud, patchouli

Warm almond milk, saffron and Italian dessert in a velvet glass. Xerjoff Casamorati Italica is one of the most indulgent gourmands in niche perfumery, rich, creamy and irresistibly luxurious. Almond, silky milk and a touch of saffron give way to toffee and bourbon vanilla, settling on sandalwood and white musk.

The Story

Italica is inspired by the warmth of Italian desserts and belongs to Casamorati, the Xerjoff line that honours the historic C. Casamorati perfume factory of Bologna, founded in 1888 and known for its perfumes and bath soaps. It is conceived for those who appreciate rich, dessert-like fragrances elevated to a high-end level.

How It Smells

Opening
Creamy, nutty and slightly spiced, like warm almond milk with a hint of saffron.

Heart
It quickly becomes a rich, dessert-like accord of buttery toffee and smooth bourbon vanilla: thick, cosy and addictive without being overly sugary.

Dry Down
Soft, creamy and slightly woody, as sandalwood and white musk lend a polished, luxurious finish. The whole impression is of a freshly baked almond dessert of warm milk, vanilla and caramelised sugar.

Dark cherry liqueur over creamy vanilla woods, with a smoky, boozy edge. Rouge Smoking Extrait by BDK Parfums is a darker, richer and intensely sensual interpretation of the iconic Rouge Smoking, created by perfumers Amélie Bourgeois and Margaux Le Paih Guérin. Juicy cherry, red mandarin and almond open the scent, a creamy milk accord and balsamic resins form the heart, and saffron, oud wood, black vanilla, rum and patchouli leave a glamorous, addictive trail.

The Story

The fragrance is inspired by the electric energy of Paris' Pigalle district, where art and nightlife meet. This extrait concentration reimagines the signature cherry, amber and tonka accord of the original with greater depth and seduction, deeper, bolder and much more powerful than the original.

How It Smells

Opening
Juicy and vibrant from the cherry and red mandarin, softened by almond sweetness, with a bright lift of pink pepper, bergamot and elemi.

Heart
Warmer and more seductive: milk accord, tonka bean and Peru balsam, with labdanum adding balsamic richness.

Dry Down
Saffron, Thai oud, amberwood, black vanilla, Martinique rum and Indonesian patchouli, with benzoin, cypriol and ambroxan, create a smooth, late-night aura.

The result is an intimate, magnetic aura meant for those who want attention and presence wherever they go.

Dark elegance with irresistible magnetism. Raw Gold by Thomas De Monaco is decadence captured in scent: boozy davana, velvety orris, smoky woods, supple suede, glowing vanilla and precious resins. Created by perfumer Maurus Bachmann, it feels bold, sensual and unmistakably luxurious.

The fragrance unfolds around the milky, textured richness of a creamy, precious sandalwood. At the top, a spicy spark of ginger and cinnamon bark is delicately dusted with saffron. Then, the floral heart of iris unfolds, echoing the intimate caress of fabric against the skin, enveloped in vanilla, tonka bean, and the profound warmth of benzoin tears. In the base, sandalwood and musks carry and extend the trail with gentle intensity. Like a precious thread of silk, Stellar Silk lays a veil of sensuality across the skin. A fragrance of passion, it radiates as a luminous halo, balancing depth and lightness to create an enduring, timeless elegance.
Around the silk, a universe of luxury emerges, defined by a noble material exploring with subtlety the porous boundaries between masculine and feminine wardrobes. The softness and delicacy of the fabric flirt with the sensuality of evening gowns, evoking Haute Couture silhouettes where creative freedom blurs boundaries, reminiscent of designs by Yves Saint Laurent or Valentino Garavani. In the airy, whispering rustle of muslin, an ode rises to the preciousness of a millennia-old material, noble and treasured.

Golden vanilla after midnight. Vanilla Haze Extrait by Fugazzi is a darker, richer and more seductive reading of the cult-favourite original. Lemon sparks over toasted hazelnut and coconut milk, then bourbon vanilla, tonka bean, clove and cashmeran build a warm, spiced, dessert-like heart. Created by Bram Niessink, the Dutch house's founder-perfumer.

The Story

Fugazzi is a niche house from the Netherlands, founded by Bram Niessink in 2018 and built on a playful, rebellious take on individuality. This extrait is the deeper, more mysterious counterpart to the original Vanilla Haze: less airy, more sensual, and made for the evening.

How It Smells

Opening
Bright lemon gives a sharper, more luminous start than the original, then melts quickly into toasted hazelnut and creamy coconut milk.

Heart
Bourbon vanilla and tonka bean bring a smooth, rich warmth, while clove and cashmeran add spice and a soft, woody-musky depth.

Dry Down
Saffron, caramel and musk settle beneath more bourbon vanilla, leaving a golden gourmand trail that lingers like warm skin.

About the perfumer – Quentin Bisch →

Saffron, suede and violet leaf: the leather that started it all. Marc-Antoine Barrois B683 Eau de Parfum is the fragrance that launched the house into the niche perfume world before Ganymede became a global phenomenon. Created by Quentin Bisch, it is darker, warmer and more classically elegant than Ganymede, built around spicy saffron leather, woods, violet leaf and mineral amber accords.

The Story

B683 was released in 2016 as the first perfume of the Maison Marc-Antoine Barrois, founded by the French couturier of that name, who opened his Paris boutique in 2013. Created with Quentin Bisch, it is described as both heady and restrained, with a leather note inspired by childhood memories of objects such as attaché cases and desk blotters, evoking the designer’s world of contemporary design.

How It Smells

Opening
A rich, spicy burst of black pepper, saffron, chili and nutmeg.

Heart
Almost immediately a smooth suede-leather texture appears, wrapped in violet leaf and cistus, with warm woods beneath. The fragrance feels refined, luxurious and slightly mysterious.
