AMOUAGE - GUIDANCE - Chapter III Escape • The Odyssey Collection - Eau de Parfum - Novità 2023

From here to infinity...

In the garden of wisdom sublime corollas and heavenly fruits bloom, the olfactory mosaic comes together, each tile, each detail in its magnificent whole shines with light and harmony.

This fragrance is the guide you didn't know you deserved, it takes you by hand, lifts your heart, like poetry leads you into the boundless space of imagination.

In her stunning notes you can get the meaning of beauty, confirmation of femininity in its unchanging essence. Her embrace becomes divine ornament, her wake inspires sensitivity and charm, in her silent strength dwell grace and kindness.

None like her will be able to reserve you a place of honor in the paradise of senses.

•••••

da qui verso l'infinito...

Nel giardino della sapienza fioriscono corolle sublimi e frutti celestiali, il mosaico olfattivo si compone, ogni tessera, ogni dettaglio nel suo magnifico insieme risplende di luce e armonia.

Questa fragranza è la guida che non sapevi di meritare, ti prende per mano, ti solleva il cuore, come poesia ti conduce nello spazio senza confini dell'immaginazione.

Nelle sue superbe note puoi comprendere il significato di bellezza, ricevere conferma della femminilità nella sua essenza immutabile, il suo abbraccio diviene ornamento divino, la sua scia ispira sensibilità e fascino, nella sua forza silenziosa dimorano grazia e gentilezza.

Nessuna come lei saprà riservarti un posto d'onore nel paradiso dei sensi.

Guidance di Amouage è la fragranza destinata a non conoscere l'oblio. Splendida reminescenza di quell'appagamento vero che non hai mai smesso di rincorrere, una sorta di appuntamento fatale, quando incontri il tuo doppio olfattivo e lo senti stare orgogliosamente, comodamente disteso sulla tua pelle.

È una poesia di Donne, la bellezza ineffabile della Cecilia di Leonardo, la femminilità velata di mistero, che attrae senza posa, alla quale concedi un tempo infinito nel disporre del tuo piacere.

Accoglie in un'atmosfera onirica, come appena varcata la soglia di un palazzo cerimoniale, tra sentori languidi di pera, nocciola e confortevoli volute di olibano. È un vestibolo odoroso che lusinga e preannuncia il glorioso disvelamento di un giardino d'incanto.

Eccoli in piena luce, gelsomino, rosa, osmanto si ergono all'unisono, risplendono nel fulgore delle aldeidi, la loro preziosa essenza padroneggia lo spazio, calamitata dai riflessi dorati dello zafferano. 

Quanta malia, quanta mirabile armonia senti scorrere nel suo garbato incedere, è imponente il suo messaggio nella rima della memoria, tra i sontuosi accordi di ambra grigia, vaniglia, labdano, akigalawood e sandalo scopri l'eccelso, nel suo maestoso sillage ti abbandoni e lasci fluire lenta e piena la meraviglia di sentirla accanto.

Creata da Quentin Bisch.

Gunner ; Etrian Odyssey ☆ Wave

My love for gaming is partly anchored in my love for stories. I gravitate towards games that weave a rich narrative involving complex and thoughtful characters in a world to be discovered slowly but impactfully. That's what Dragon Age: Inquisition, with all its flaws, did for me six years ago, and it's how the Mass Effect trilogy crashed into my life only a few months ago, birthing an obsession I didn't know I needed. It's why the Ezio era of the Assassin's Creed series is, in my opinion, still undefeated, and it's what, years ago, kept me playing Horizon: Zero Dawn all the way into the early hours when I really should have been sleeping.

When sequels get caught up in the hype of their forebears and their disappointing ambitions fail to remember their origin in tale-telling, especially while chasing some passing trend only desired by money-loving investors, a light dies in my heart.

Assassin's Creed: Odyssey was, as per Wikipedia, complimented by critics for its story-telling, but I have yet to find the parts that would have brought about such praise. Kassandra is fun, certainly, and her backstory is promising, but I fail to understand her motivations. Perhaps the choice system has something to do with this, but she also seems to be thrown into larger situations that are not warranted by our knowledge of who she is, a young girl growing up to be a mercenary on a small island under the wings of a silly, get-rich-quick schemer who has a penchant for getting into trouble. How does she come to be in command of a ship, despite seemingly having no previous experience with it, and embroiled in a battle of the Peloponnesian War as if she's been fighting wars her whole life? I don't know who this woman is, what drives her, and which experiences inform the actions she undertakes.

I do like her muscled arms, though.

Obsessed with him…

Helmet IS removable but I don’t think they wanted you too because his hairline is non existent. (RIP little Dave) lmao

I believe he’s the only one of them as a little plush, they released a few things a couple of years ago for an anniversary. Which they’d had a bigger/more permanent selection. Really the fact one of the most influential movies EVER doesn’t have a consistent merch line anywhere is sad

Oh god… help…

ok has anyone wondered how false and ren got the invite to join mcc. like ik jevin was in mcc1 but the hermit arc truly began in mcc4. and you know how false and ren's whole thing was that they would join together and put down each other's names until mcc17. did scott send invites to both of them. did he send to invites to a bunch of hermits and they had like a discussion on whether to join this mine craft event. were those two in dms like "i'll join if you join" "i'll join if YOU join". did scott send them an email like "hey hermits i've got two slots free choose whoever you like" and false and ren volunteered for tribute. funniest scenario is if scott only sent one of them an email and they were like "i'm only joining with my friend 🥺" and boom [this is not how the waitlist works].

@koszmarnybudyn brought yet another Henry Oak lie to my attention, inspiring me to make

Henry Oak’s List of LIES

so canonically, Henry couldn’t remember his life in Oakvale. right? explain this:

Henry bought his first pair of Birkenstocks at age 9.

He was a boy scout.

His birthday is May 23rd.

Henry continued the family legacy by being a vegan.

He was a wild teen and stayed out later than his parents wanted.

He had a bad experience with alcohol when he was younger, which led to wander around naked for days until meeting Mercedes.

He knew Lark and Sparrow got spanked by his father.

How could he remember these things?? Maybe it was subconscious. Or maybe Henry Oak is a frickin' ding dang gosh darn dilly willy heckin' shark tooth banana chicanery hootin' tootin' raspberry frickin' fuck of a liar

ON MEMOIR

“The act of making something from what is already there always involves a simultaneous creation and destruction....  Even what seems like the purest, most self-contained type of creativity -- turning the events, images, and ideas of one's life into a written story --is a destroyer.”

Lisa Knopp, The Nature of Home: A Lexicon and Essays

“Truth for anyone is a very complex thing. For a writer, what you leave out says as much as those things you include. What lies beyond the margin of the text? The photographer frames the shot; writers frame their world.”

Jeanette Winterson, Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal?

“I have never liked the memoir form because I tend to think that memory fictionalizes anyway. Once you claim that you are writing a narrative purely from memory, you are already in the realm of fiction.”

Francisco Goldman

“I tell aspiring memoirists, if you're the kind of person who can't apologize, who digs in, trusts only the first impulse, then this won't be your form. The convenient sound bites into which I store my sense of self are rarely accurate -- whose are? They have to be unpacked and pecked at warily, with unalloyed suspicion. You must testify and recant, type and delete.”

Mary Karr, New York Times Op-Ed page (01/15/2006)

Lidia Yuknavitch, The Chronology Of Water: A Memoir

“The French word from which the English “memoir” derives reflects this transformation. Mémoire, meaning “memory,” is feminine; mémoire, meaning “memoir,” is masculine. It is a change of gender, in French called genre. Truth belongs to one genre; recalled truth to another. But that does not make truth recalled a lie: It makes it a fiction in the Latin sense — of a thing fashioned — that Hadrian would have recognized. A memoir is a shape given to the chaos of a life.

Every event, and certainly every event worth writing about, will always remain tattooed on our neurons. So it is never too early to start giving those events, which are our lives, a form. It is a homage we pay ourselves. More solid than a memory, a memoir will outlast it, because until a memory is put into words, it remains mist, never shore.”

Benjamin Moser

“I don't know where the idea originated that memoir writing is cathartic. For me, it's always felt like playing my own neurosurgeon, sans anesthesia.”

Koren Zailckas

“Autobiographical storytelling can take personal experience back from silence, shame, fear, or oblivion. It says, ‘I cherish this,’ or, ‘This haunts me.’ It asserts the significance of events in one’s life: ‘This happened to me.’ ‘I did this.’ ‘This is part of who I am.’ ‘This should not or will not disappear, and I act to preserve it by turning it to words and shaping them as story.’”

Gregory Orr, Poetry as Survival
