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.

The house
More from Guerlain
Guerlain dates back to 1828, when Pierre-François-Pascal Guerlain began making scents in France, and the house has been polishing one warm, powdery signature ever since. Vanilla, iris and tonka bean run through the range, brightened by bergamot and settled on sandalwood. Start with Shalimar Eau de Parfum: sparkling citrus that sinks slowly into amber and vanilla. Mon Guerlain wraps lavender in a soft vanilla haze, while La Petite Robe Noire is dark cherry with a sugared edge. For something lighter, Aqua Allegoria Mandarine Basilic is fresh and green. Thierry Wasser and Delphine Jelk are among the perfumers credited on the range here.
