Is Eden Perfumes No.341 Guidance a dupe of Amouage Guidance?

Which Should You Buy?
Guidance is a serious love-it-or-hate-it affair, a beast-mode scent that demands attention. Prepare for effusive compliments or utter revulsion - this isn't for the faint-hearted.
No.341 follows Amouage's Guidance, a fruity-incense niche fragrance built on olibanum, rose and sandalwood. The dupe delivers the calming, resinous warmth of the original but flattens its slow, multi-stage development into something more linear, trading Amouage's sophistication for a simpler, sweeter wear.
