Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Insolence EDT
Prepare for a polarised reaction. Most adore this as a whimsical, clean violet scent, but some find it intensely powdery and dated. If you're after a loud, sweet floral that makes a statement, this is your jam. If not, steer clear.
Statement
Our Verdict - No.098 Insolence EDP
No.098 opens on Guerlain Insolence's signature red-berry burst before settling into a softer violet-iris-rose heart, capturing the original's impertinent, boudoir-sweet character reasonably well without its full powdery richness.
