My Insolence is a new version of Insloence, launched in September 2007. It is fruiter and softer and brighter then Insolence. My Insolence is created for a modern woman, spontaneous and ready to reveal the essence of her inner self, and embrace her femininity. This adorable fragrance is charming, playful and uplifting, captured in a charming pink bottle.
It opens with a whole bunch of sweet raspberry notes, with a lemon-cake-like citrusy trace, and then continues in a direction opposite than its predecessor Insolence. The almond blossom notes, intensive, sweet and pure jasmine, patchouli, Tonka beans and powdery vanilla, give this fragrance a soft impression.
The noses behind this fragrance are Christophe Raynaud and Sylvaine Delacourte.

I tested My Insolence on my skin once. At first it was light, sweet, and creamy. Imagine a raspberry mousse pudding. After a while it smelled identical to the scent of Johnson’s baby lotion. The bottle has a cute shape - too bad the fragrance doesn't suit me.

Oh! Give me more Guerlain! I sampled this today and I think this is a very very nice fragrance it reminds me of Vera Wang Princess but stronger with some incense in the dry down! This is downright gorgeous! I have got to buy this one! The bottle is cheap looking but I don't even care I want this! I need to try all of the Guerlain scents I can find and I think I found a winner with this one!!!!!!!

This is such a disappointment. Leave the creation to the Guerlain family, please. I feel that what is happening to Guerlain now is to make their line available to anyone. I do agree 100% with Benzippo. Be original and don't flood the market with these fragrances. Originality and high quality are what make the name Guerlain standing out of the crowd. I do wear "cheaper" and more "commun" fragrances, but from Guerlain I expect better.

When I first smelled this, my initial thought was raspberry ginger ale, because I got alot of raspberry fizzle from the top notes. As it settled onto my skin the almond blossom and jasmine practically tantalized my olfactory organs. The tonka bean, patchouli and vanilla of the base notes were also really nice. The drydown is delightful. I practically sniffed my wrist the whole day I first wore this because I just couldn't and still can't get enough of this smell. Ideal for day and evening wear.

I always trusted Guerlain’s fragrances, since “Chamade” was my first perfume I ever bought and wore from Guerlain, & simply love it. “My Insolence” was offered to me by my boyfriend and I believe that he made an excellent choice & selection!
The first notes coming to my nose are the citruses ones, followed by floral scents, the jasmine scent is one, followed by the almond blossom. Even though I don’t like the Tonka Beans smell, overall “My Insolence” smell is very good and has a strong lasting power. Its bottle is pretty, and I am a fun of it! Generally, I like it.
Good job, Gatoulis (my boy friend’s nick name! LOL) for offering it to me!

I absolutely love this fragrance. It's the combination of almond blossom, jasmine, vanilla, and tonka bean that do it for me.. So soft & innocent, feminine, and powdery.. And I have to agree that if you're a fan of floral gourmands(as I am), you will probably enjoy this. Definitely one of my favorites, I just love it!

I tried this on my skin for the first time today and I have got to say I was quite disappointed. Bit powdery and soapy sweet on my skin. Shame cos I liked it on the fragrance card. The search continues.....

I tested this a couple of days ago. I love it! This is what you would get if you mixed Lolita Lempicka and Hot Couture together! I really like the raspberries, along with a smokey note, on top....it sparkles.. just like the notes in Hot Couture. Then the almond and tonka bean notes evolve just like in Lolita Lempicka making you feel very comfortable. It's wonderful! Will make you feel, warm, cozy, yet empowered and confident all at the same time.

Nothing special nor unique nor any different from all those sweet smelling fragrances that has been continuously flooding the market.
A disappointment for me. I still like the original.

I was really annoyed. My favorite Guerlain - and this? It starts as a very chemical, fruity and sharp concoction, a rather ordinary one...And then it developed some heavy note that made me think of stale walnuts!And this note was really LOUD, and there was nothing to soften it...I suspect that it was patchouli, which I usually love, but here it was almost unbearable for me or was not supported by the right ingredients...The base is way common and insignificant.Guerlain, you so can do better!!!!!!!

I love Insolence, but this version comes out murky and muddy on me, cloying in a must-scrub way.
12/14/08 14:16:05
Hmmm... Delicious! I like its delightful raspberry note, it's not so dominant as it is in Insolence, but still one of the determining notes, which gives the character of this perfume. I think it IS special, and the delicate gourmand notes boost this feeling in me... In addition, this fragrance is very long lasting!

it s nice but not special at all,can t compare to insolence .i expected to smell different but i was disapointed.i have a few samples with it and i sprayed them these days .
11/09/08 06:25:04
The scent for this is really soft and airy but it has a look of inosence to it in the scent but its a sweet aswell
10/21/08 00:31:42
I love this perfume, maybe a bit generic, but the powdery raspberry topnote is so lovely. The fragrance reminds me of a combination between a girly and a comfort scent. I don't like the original insolence, but this one is a keeper.
10/02/08 06:39:23
i got a sample .... when i wear it i just love it ....so soft and nice on me

I agree with "takemyhusband": it's not fruity at all.
This will be one of my classics. I get so many compliments when I wear this one. Very, very feminine. ;)

I adore this. It is so feminine and pretty, but also clean. I love the top-note of raspberry. If you like scents that contain raspberry, this is a must.
09/19/08 19:51:08
Hmm... cant even say for what event it is... One part of me likes it, and the other one hates it... Well if somebody gave it to me I would use it..:)
08/18/08 02:26:32
At first it was just too much for me, but now I got used to it. You definitely have to use it with caution...
05/19/08 01:59:59
Its very sweet for me, the smell is between pink sugar from aqualina and paco rabanne ultrared. its not similar to Insolence at all, but not bad in its type, i would have guessed pralines, but it may be the vanilla

From my carded sample, Guerlain says that My Insolence is in fact a Floral gourmande, not a fruity floral, as listed here.
Warm raspberries in a heavy cream sauce with a touch of haunting florals is the best way I can describe how wonderful this smells. My Insolence is a very feminine fragrance which is light, but long lasting and yet surprisingly warm & deep. It's a perfume with many contradictions! If you like floral gourmonds, you will most likely enjoy. I think this is a bit like JPG's Classique, although not quite as heady. This is more of an intimate, innocent, yet sexy scent. It takes a bit to fully develop on the skin, but when it does it's just heavenly. This will be one of my new bottles!!
