To make this clearer.

1. If I have to profiles names A and B.
2. If profile A is running, and I run the command "firefox -P B", a new firefox 
window(not tab) will open under the current running profile, i.e. B.

Unlike marcw mentioned, -no-remote can help if profile B is not running.

However, if profile B is still running, and I run "firefox -P B -no-
remote", a new window of firefox will not start and would instead
complain that an existing instance of B is already running. This is a
problem for me sometime because I would expect clicking on the icon to
open another window all the time of the specified profile.
