I’ll admit, I do not have a single “signature” scent. You know the scent that you’re supposed to have that when you walk into a room, people will know that you just walked in. I totally break that rule. Instead of one, I have .:gasp:. THREE!
In this post, I will introduce you to one of my favorite fragrances. Insolence by Guerlain is one of the three fragrance I have, and love. If you can imagine the smell of purple (could be the violet in it?), I think this is what it would smell like. .:LOL:. I know it’s weird, but purple is my favorite color & this is what it smells like to me! Don’t judge me :o) It has a nice scent. A little goes a long way, and it lasts all day!
I was using My Insolence at first, until my boyfriend picked up for me Insolence by Guerlain, and I actually liked the regular Insolence better. I found that My Insolence had baby powderish notes to it, that I didn’t like, and it was a little too much on the citrusy side (in my opinion).
I think my boyfriend purchased Insolence by Guerlain from MACY*S. I’ve been seeing varying price ranges so, I’m not going to post the price.

ooh I’ve never smelled that, but the bottle is so cute!!
isn’t it! It’s oddly shaped, but that’s what makes it cute.
ok, this is a nice series. I don’t very much ‘understand’ fragrance…When someone suggests one, i try and then I decide. Now that you are liking this one…I will check it next tym at MACY’s Counter…btw, that bottle its CUTE>>>> I wouldn’t mind decorating such empty bottles!!!
@resham you can try sephora and neiman marcus too for it.
cute package ! 🙂
Oh man, why do perfume bottles have to be so ridiculously pretty? XD
I haven’t heard of this before but I love the packaging… I’ll have to check it out. I love Sheer Stella by Stella McCartney. It’s really fresh smelling, like how I’d picture sunshine to smell.
@Sunny I’ve never smelled Stella McCartney’s perfumes. I’m going to try it one day. Thank you. I like how you said “sunshine in a bottle.”
