The r/fragrance community views Insolence positively as an excellent sweet violet fragrance with authentic Parma Violet candy notes. While the EDP offers good longevity and performance, the EDT is lighter but weaker lasting. The main criticism is its dated aesthetic and Guerlain's repeated discontinuations, though it remains a solid recommendation for violet enthusiasts seeking a powdery, nostalgic scent.
