REVIEWS
Fragrantica - I adore this scent! It's a very realistic violet perfume with lots of sweetness. It has a slight vintage lipstick smell to it too that reminds me of Guerlain's Metéorites. I can smell some of the orange blossom and red berries in there too, but I mostly get the violet and iris in this perfume...It reminds me a bit of Lipstick Rose by Frédéric Malle, which I also love. Feminine and divine!
Fragrantica - This is one of my favorite perfumes ever, along with Ariana Grande’s Cloud, JPG Classique EDT, and Jadore. This is EXACTLY what a fairy would smell like. A sparkling fairy surrounded by pink bubbles and sparkles and sunshine and fluffy cotton candy clouds. This is a bright, clean, sweet, powdery, floral scent. It’s youth and innocence. This is a good girl perfume. This is a fairy’s perfume. And it’s so unique. I’ve never smelled anything even close to it. Super distinguishable. If this is your signature scent, anyone who smells this will remember you forever and they’ll know you’ve been somewhere if they smell this in a room. I love this so much.
Fragrantica - Apparently I’m weird, because I’m in my twenties and I absolutely adore this perfume. I don’t find it “dated” at all...Insolence EDT is positively delightful. Yes, it’s powdery from the violet and iris, but not nauseatingly so, and it also has this sparkling berry-floral sweetness that I can’t get enough of. The composition as a whole makes me think of fairies, so whoever initially said that this fragrance is one that a fairy would wear, you are 100% correct. The fragrance is cute and sweet and sparkly, sure, but mischievous as well—just like a fairy.
Fragrantica - LOVE this perfume, it was love at first sniff! To me it smells more like candied violets, less like powdery iris, but I absolutely adore it! My husband also loved it, and let me tell you, there aren’t many perfumes he likes! So it’s definitely a win! Can’t wait to wear this!
Fragrantica - Electric candied violets, and I love it. It gives off kind of a youthful, playful, feminine vibe even though I wouldn't call it a "young person's perfume." I've gotten chased down the street wearing this. Not lying...a Parisian woman needed to know if it was Guerlain because she doesn't smell it often in NYC. I've gotten many compliments on this one. It's beautiful.
Fragrantica - LOVE LOVE LOVE! This is the best violet fragrance. This is a gorgeous ethereal powdery scent. It smells so comforting and clean. Like a soapy bubble bath scented with violet soap. The red berries also add a gorgeous sweetness and juiciness to this fragrance.
Fragrantica - When i wear this i feel like i am floating on a cloud of sugared berries and powdery violets. Love at first sniff. I get the imagery of magical fairies and pixie dust.
