    I rated this a 3 because the jury's still out--I can't decide if I like this fragrance or not! I've tested it on several occasions, and sometimes it smells soapy, then next time it will smell...

    Oh my, I got a sample of this on Sephora, and it is my first scrubber ever! Usually I am able to bear with a scent for a day even if I dislike the initial notes, but this just went from bad to...

    I just have to step in to defend this scent! This is the best violet- and-berries scent I have ever sniffed. So this scent is not for everybody, that is why it can seem very sweet, but this can be...

    Last Christmas, one of my friend had Insolence as a gift and told me she has finally found a perfume that doesn't give her headaches. The scent was really nice on her, not too strong, but just...

    Guerlain is normally a good perfume house for me, but I just can't wear Insolence! The first two minutes are nice enough - a pretty, green violet note - but then the perfume takes on a sickly...

    Hmmm, I don't hate this fragrance, but I don't love it either. I find the top notes to be quite harsh and very much a violet smack in the face!! After about an hour, it tones right down and...

    I ordered this unsniffed from ebay, a mini bottle, for a ridiculously high price when it first came out. I was hoping for it to be my signature scent because the notes sounded so pretty. Well when...

    When I was at the store picking this out, I fell in love with the smell, It starts off beautiful/sexy at first, THEN ITS SICKENING sweet later. It smelled so bad after 3 hours that I had to take a...

    I must be a freak: this one smells nice. I do get some sweet, but it's not the cloying terror everyone else is talking about. Faint violet and rose and mostly vanilla and berries. I really like...

    Hello, violets! I wasn't expecting you. And I don't really like you all that much. After the initial shock of "Violets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" was some nice vanilla undertones, kind of like Lush's American...

    Insolence is a fragrance I never get tired of. It has notes of berries and powder. It sound weird, but it works. I get lots of compliments when I wear it, and it has great staying power.

    I have only tested this out of curiosity...I would not purchase it. This fragrance, like most of the new Guerlains, is just, in a word, cloying. It is very sickly sweet and overpowering. ...

    I really, really wanted to like this fragrance. I love the way violets smell and that's what made me buy it. The bottle was broken at the store so I just took a whiff of the atomizer and I...

    I received a sample of this in the mail from an order I placed for fragrance. When I opened it up, my first thought was that it stunk. The second once was that it was strong. It was one of those...

    I don't really like this scent. It smells sweet but in a weird, very plastic-y way.

    This scent is just so-so. After it dries, it smells like Safeguard soap.
