Where to buy

Insolence is an unprecedented flower that will astonish with its boldness. Guerlain transports us into a world of spontaneity where freedom reigns supreme, in order to highlight the insolence of women and make them even more beautiful. Insolence is a sparkling and surprising sensuality. By wearing this Guerlain fragrance, one also displays that little spark in the eye, that fearless smile, and that ironic elegance. Like Insolence, one lacks no panache and expresses, single-handedly, the radiance of femininity. One embodies all the free women of our time: like Hilary Swank in the 2006 advertisement for the Insolence perfume.

A fragrance that reflects the insolence of women

Insolence aims to be original and unprecedented. It brings together iris and violet in a floral and fruity blend. It further underscores its boldness and adds a touch of modernity by including red fruits in just the right measure, an ingredient used for the first time by Guerlain. Like its bottle, this Guerlain perfume is as rounded and intimate as it is sparkling and audacious. Its violet is overdosed and charged with energy. Insolence is worlds apart from perfumes where this scent is barely whispered and treated in half-tones. It is a familiar flower revealed in a new light. Its heart note, meanwhile, takes on rose and orange blossom scents. Finally, Insolence leaves behind a balsamic base thanks to its tonka flower. This lasting scent is like a signature, a true hallmark of the house of Guerlain.

Guerlain and its bottle of light

Insolence comes in a “toupie” bottle, straight out of the imagination of sculptor Serge Mansau. The glass, entirely transparent, plays with light. Nothing seems to interfere with its purity. It has style and refuses to be like everyone else in any way. It invites one to assert one's personality. It elevates the nectar it contains without altering it. Thus, Insolence reveals its violet color as if to suggest an olfactory explosion of that flavor. This perfume may surprise Guerlain devotees but it aims to be younger and more modern and will draw every gaze through its design. Its stacking of three half-spheres will make one dizzy, just as the fragrance of Insolence will make one lose one's head.

Guerlain's Insolence Eau de Toilette

Insolence is a spark in the eye; a fearless smile that fears nothing and no one; a silence that amuses itself. It is a poise of the head; a nonchalant grace; an ironic elegance. Audacity, style! And, above all, for nothing in the world to be like everyone else. Created by sculptor Serge Mansau, the object seems carved out of light. Except for the Guerlain signature on the cap and the perfume's name on a platinum circle, nothing interferes between the glass and the radiance it captures. Body, neck, cap: the three half-spheres perform a triple revolution upon themselves.

Fruity Floral. Surprising, audacious, feminine. Succumb to the sparkling and unexpected sensuality of Insolence. This fruity floral fragrance boldly blends vibrant red fruits and a luminous iris to reveal surprising violet notes. A new violet, radiant, overdosed, charged with energy; a triumphant violet, at the opposite end from the timid whisper usually treated in half-tones and backlight. It is a transfiguration, a discovery, a completely unprecedented yet familiar flower that bursts forth from the opening.
