    I love the original L'Instant de Guerlain for women, but found it too feminine for my taste (as a guy). It's a lovely honeyed amber, but it screamed on my skin. When I heard this was being...

    Mmmm....I am, admittedly, a Guerlain lover. This lovely, gorgeous scent is no exception. This was recommended to me as I was looking for an almondy scent, and sadly this did NOT fit the bill on me....

    Strong, heavy but sweet scent upon spraying it. I can smell a mixture of flowers and lemon. I find it a bit too strong at this point. After the top notes have died down it has changed into a...

    I think L'instant Magic is the kind of perfume Arwen from The Lord of The Rings would wear. I'd never call it sexy but it's undoubtedly ultra-feminine and romantic in a pure, innocent way with an...

    I'm not a big fan of Guerlain in general. I do love Guerlain Jicky Edt., and Secret Intention which as I've been told is not characteristic of a Guerlain at all. I tried L'Instant as it was...

    I am really impressed with this one. I just dabbed a little sample on my wrist and let it settle. I was pleased to notice a very classy, comforting, powdery fragrance that had a subtle edge of...

    My first try of this was a rather nice powdery comfort blanket scent, without being gourmand or vanilla in any way. I am EXTREMELY picky about powder in my fragrance as I don't like it as a note....

    No, no, no. This is headache in a bottle for me. I sprayed it on in a perfume shop and had to endure a half hour nauseating drive home being choked with this overpowering scent. It's way too...

    Agree with the comment under me and also the third under :) . At first I didn't like it when I smelled it in the perfumery - the top notes has a pretty strange smell I really can't completely...

    The original L'Instant is too floral for me, so I didn't care about the Magic version until recently, when I was at a Guerlain counter and I tried on L'Instant Magic Elixir. I came home and for the...

    This is not a very original fragrance but I still love it. You must like bergamot, powder, almonds, and musk (in that order) to enjoy this simple beauty. The opening is a sweet citrus, kind of like...

    Let me start by saying, I'm not the typical Guerlain fan. I don't like the "Guerlinade." It is too sickeningly, horribly, boozy-sweet on me. But I love this. It's very pretty, fresh, juicy,...
