Guerlain Insolence Eau de Parfum
- Authentic original perfume
- Try before the full bottle
- Travel-ready 3ml, 10ml, 30ml
- Long-lasting scent
Insolence Eau de Parfum by Guerlain is a powdery violet floral with a fruity lift. Violet opens it soft and slightly sweet, and wild strawberry arrives close behind, bright against the white-floral warmth of orange blossom. Iris, vanilla, tonka bean and sandalwood settle the base, woody and faintly earthy beneath all that powder. It came out in 2021 and is chosen mostly by women, though its playful, fruity edge suits anyone who wants a floral with some bite. Spring and autumn bring it out, worn through the day and into the night. The longevity vote leans long-lasting rather than landing there outright, and the sillage vote leans moderate in turn, keeping it close rather than loud. A 3ml decant gives you a week to see if this violet is yours.
