Insolence Eau de Toilette

an amazing versatile scent perfect for day and night wear. to me it's super powdery, floral and romantic. it has a parma-violet like smell but not overpowering and candy like. it's youthful and beautiful. the initial spray you get the super strong violet notes and as it settles through the day, it works into this super satisfying powdery drydown with the sandalwood. it works super well in cold weather and blooms the best there and longevity on clothing is superb - one of those you will smell days later! the longevity on skin is amazing too especially for an edt and does not need frequent reapplication. i find it can also be a super beautiful and romantic spring time scent due to its floral composition. it does struggle in high heat and can be very overpowering if you're not into that. it's a very unique scent that to me evokes imagery of a young, fearless woman, she's adventurous and playful. to me it has the similar vibe of britney spears fantasy but it's more mature and classy and less childish. if you're looking for a unique floral perfume that's powdery and beautiful i'd absolutely buy this.

This was one of my first perfumes ages ago and I loved it. I had the old formula in the flower-style flask (such a shame they discontinued that beauty). The past couple of years I often tried it again in stores, but it was so different to what I remembered to the point that I was starting to think I used to have some kind of flanker instead. Recently I bit the bullet and bought a new style bottle (mostly because I had received a gift card and had to spend it on something), but I was still not convinced. Util I finally tried it on at home and I instantly recognized the beloved smell. That goes to show how different something can smell on skin and on paper. It's a very powdery and clean smell that last a good while. So glad I have this in my arsenal once again

I love it. It’s very nostalgic for me, as many women around me used to smell like this in 2000s, but it’s not outdated and I can wear it and feel myself in it. Very comforting and cozy, but also feminine, elegant and even somewhat sexy (but that’s debatable). It’s floral-powdery (not dry), a bit sweet and has something like a berry dessert in it. Violet is very prominent, it adds some bitterness (especially in the beginning), but quite soft. And of course there is this wonderful recognizable Guerlain base, which makes most Guerlain perfumes smell elegant and feminine to me. The scent has quite positive vibes, I would say, but at the same time it would be appropriate for almost any occasion. For me it’s quite weather dependent.

Absolutely stunning. Delicate and refined. Insolence EDT opens with a sparkling, tangy fruity note blended with damp woods. A few minutes in, a strong, sweet, powdery violet emerges alongside a translucent iris. Although both versions smell very similar overall, compared to the EDP (which I’ve only tried via a dupe), the EDT feels brighter and slightly less powdery. Nostalgically, this scent reminds me of the perfumed leaves from collectible scented paper pads from the 80s that used to be swapped among friends, as well as the memory of scented, colourful ballpoint pens that were so popular at the time. A unique and sophisticated take on a powdery floral.
