Probably Trésor (Lancome 1990) presenting the (later so-called) Grojsman-Accord for the first time?

I vote Insolence too, was I right? Was I? :) If it is like Insolence, how close do you think it is to the original?

It's the oranger + benzyl acetate combined with the ionones...that oranger lasts forever in the fragrance. I love Insolence. I think Insolence might contain Irotyl though as well.

Insolence would have more ionones I would imagine. And no galaxolide so it will be odd if this is one of the additions to improve it. Although maybe you are just rebalancing the key ingredients which is a great way to make variations on known themes. I do that often myself and I find it greatly educational.
