    It is indeed a very soothing scent, probably because of its vanilla content. But to me, it is just an OK fragrance by Guerlain. I feel they are trying to create another L'Heure Bleue, but it just...

    It's okay. The dry down was a nice litle powdery magnolia. But there a lot of less expensive powdery white florals out there.

    There's always a first, they say. Well, this is the first and hopefully only time I will ever give a Guerlain scent one lippie. In fact, I wish I could give it a minus one. This stuff stinks. I...

    Like one reviewer said, I might like the perfume better than the EDP (I have the EDP). But I have a problem with its middle note (jasmine, magnolia, iris), its just too cloying for me. The first...

    I don't really dislike this one, but it's not the typical Guerlain's work. I agree that it's trendy and commercial, somehow false. I don't mind smelling it on other people but on me it's a little...

    My bf said it smells like lemon cheese cake and does not like it much. But he might be bias because he is a diehard fan of J'dore.

    a quality fragrance above Chance, Addict and J'adore but much below classic Guerlains (L'Heure Bleue, Shalimar...) or high-end quality and exclusive fragrances like Serge Lutens/Shiseido Salons.

    Love love love this perfume. Its sweet and feminine. After the initial floral blast it quickly settles into a yummy, sweet, sexy,delicate scent. Its very unique and smells like nothing else. If you...

    I had problems with other fragrances, because they didn't last long and diseppeared quickly. But this one is different. I still hesitate not buying Estee Pleasures Intense.

    An incensy-vanilla similar to Dior Addict. I like this much better though. My favorite Guerlain fragrance to date.

    L'Instant is an appropriate name for this perfume because it gives me an instant headache. The weird amber note gets stronger through the day and I think I can detect something pungent too, like...

    While I generally liked this fragrance, I was somewhat disappointed to note that it was one that was easily compared to other scents. It is something of a trend-follower, rather than being a...

    I was so excited to read the fragrance notes on the card of my carded spray vial sample. It sounded like a fragrance that I would really enjoy. However, on me, it smells nearly the same as Dior...

    Very sharp tacky floral fragrance. Not appealing to me at all. Very heavy. Not fresh smelling at all. Yuck. Dries down to something very sweet and nauseating.

    Why everybody is so severe about this fragrance? When I discovered it, I was in Paris, at Galeries Lafayette with some friends (August, 2003). I thought: "Nice, but ordinary". Some months after, I...

    Fans of classic Guerlains will be disappointed. Reminds me of a department store fragrance, perhaps a bit more refined. The notes listed on the carded sample I received were magnolia, honey, and...
