Insolence is raspberries all the way

Category: Review on Insolence by Guerlain 50ml Eau de Toilette Spray

Posted by: 24-Oct-2008

Strengths: Fruity perfume which smells wonderful in the day time

Weaknesses: Not liked by all, no flowery over tones

Insolence is nothing except a burst of raspberries and it tends to stay with you for quite some time even after the other milder tones have gone long since then. The perfume bottle is feminine to the core and the glass flower top might be bit of a misleading item in the entire packaging as Insolence is more fruity that flowery. Don’t get me wrong, the perfume does have some floral tones but they tend to be supporting the rich raspberry notes than anything else.

The perfume is well designed as a youthful one for day wear but is not recommended for evening wear at all. Insolence is also not very cheap so you might want to check out the tester before deciding to buy this perfume either for yourself or as a gift. Insolence, as the name suggests, has nothing insolent or cheeky about the perfume and might be a bit of a misnomer really....

Expensive Insolence is not and that helps in keeping this perfume on the shelf. The perfume is quite cheerful and definitely not over-the-top as some users would like to believe. Neither is it on the sweet side since you can feel the infusions of vanilla very strongly in spite of the raspberry tones which is of course the signature tone of the perfume in the first place! So if you like raspberries, you are going to love Insolence!
