I'm tired of other rants about how horrid the EdT is when I mention how much I love Insolence... <br /><br />This might be - dare I say it - my all-time favourite because of how it makes me feel, but also because of how often I want to smell (lick) my arm. If only I could cut off my nose and stick it to my arm.

Yay!!!! It was worth the hassle to find it - love it! Have to say, though, that the 3.4oz bottle is not a good design for spraying. Not easy to bring the sprayer close to skin with that large flat top in the way. Oh well.

I wish that they would just separate the two and give one a new name!<br />It is very frustrating to argue with SA about a fragrance.

But they launched it alongside Guerlain Homme, and that received the marketing focus (which btw doesn't really sell either.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-415795419713091856.post-7756643808903332562009-06-11T21:38:20.796-04:002009-06-11T21:38:20.796-04:00Tania,

And since I like Alien and Addict, too, I must have been their demographic! <br /><br />Nioi,<br />Thanks for stopping in. I generally assume that SAs are poorly trained and given very little information. So I hope it came across that I'm blaming Guerlain for this and not the individual SAs.Abigailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164551758520564300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-415795419713091856.post-32846442267595303112009-06-11T18:06:19.372-04:002009-06-11T18:06:19.372-04:00I love Insolence.

Or...Well, I found Insolence edp in my local store. <br />Or at least, I found the tester. What they had for sale was Insolence edt and Insolence Eau Glace, but the tester was the edp! So if they are really different scents, anyone who buys Insolence edt based on the tester is in for a surprise, I guess. I pointed this out to the SA, who plainly thought I was talking complete bollocks.... ;-)<br /><brTaniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16033325684252709482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-415795419713091856.post-37954357990737397392009-06-08T15:23:15.976-04:002009-06-08T15:23:15.976-04:00Hi Abigail/Brian,
