The review

On paper, Jade Giallo is a strong bet if you want Guidance for less.

French Avenue sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Guidance's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $69 per 100ml it costs 83% less than Guidance — the 8th cheapest of 14 twins we can price.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength French Avenue publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

The original opens on pear, hazelnut and olibanum, turns to osmanthus, rose and saffron, and settles into sandalwood, vanilla and akigalawood. That is the brief Jade Giallo is working from.

Top

  • pear
  • hazelnut
  • olibanum

Heart

  • osmanthus
  • rose
  • saffron

Base

  • sandalwood
  • vanilla
  • akigalawood
Juicy pear and apricot-toned osmanthus over creamy sandalwood — polished, radiant and modern.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
