    A powdery amber fragrance. Nicely done, but too powdery for me and reminds me too much of 1980s mens deodorant. I prefer fresher, cleaner scents.

    I used to love this fragrance in 2006 - 2008 and got a sample to refresh my memories before repurchasing. It's vanilla sweet, powdery, and rather subtle. The lasting power is great. I can't say...

    Much as I love Guerlain scents, this one just doesn’t do anything for me. The bottle is, as always, beautiful, but the fragrance itself just turns into poison with my body chemistry. I found it odd...

    This is probably my most favorite perfume/fragrance ever. I typically only purchase and use Guerlain fragrances. This is a very warm and powdery scent that stays on the skin very well. This has...

    To echo many other reviews, this fragrance is just plain pretty! It surrounds you with a beautiful aura of magnolia and other white flowers and like a signature piece of jewelry or a scarf,...

    Review for EDP: Warm, decadent, comforting. Deeply sensuous but also classy and somewhat restrained. I've been re-watching Desperate Housewives, and there was a scene in the first season where the...

    Other than Insolence, this is my other favorite scent Guerlain has done in the last 15 years. I didn't like Idylle, and LPRN has been done to death. This is a beautiful amber scent, very powdery,...

    L'Instant reminds of 24 Faubourg by Hermes in its golden plushness and symphonic synthetic-ness. It is a dense and almost syrupy combination of honeyed florals and vanilla which is interrupted by a...

    This is a really pretty, powdery vanilla floral on me. Like others reviewing here it's easy on the nose & would not offend but I also didn't find that it stopped me in my tracks or that it was love...

    I love Guerlain fragrances - that heavy, old-fashioned vanilla powder just does it for me. My most beloved is L'Heure Bleue. Unfortunately, my husband feels the opposite - he loathes the very same...

    There's something special about this fragrance that can't be captured in words. Not for the faint hearted, it's strong, sexy and very feminine. I truly love it in winter but it's too overpowering...

    Pretty! A nice, orange blossom-magnolia with a sweet vanillic-honey (but no uric acid) base. I'll probably get a full bottle once it makes its way down through the discounters.

    My favorite together with Mitsouko. Simply the best. It's not a fragrance, it's a whole atmosphere that surrounds you.
