Solid Perfumes Are So Underrated—These 9 Smell the Absolute Best
Perfume rollerballs and travel-size sprays get all the love and attention where on-the-go fragrance is concerned, but we're here to say solid perfumes are the best, most underrated way to keep your signature scent beautifully intact all day long.
Not only are solid perfumes pint-size and effortlessly compatible with even the teeniest of tiny handbags, but they're also spill-proof and laced with truly skin-loving ingredients (think lush oils like coconut, sweet almond, jojoba, and more) that kill two birds with one stone by moisturizing your skin and dosing you with fragrance. Oh, and did we mention the super-chic packaging? We love that so many of our favorite solid perfumes are meticulously packaged in the prettiest, most display-worthy compacts—from seashells to charms to gold-encrusted adornments. Below, we're sharing nine of the best-smelling solid perfumes along with the formulas they pair magically with. Keep scrolling!
Key fragrance notes: grapefruit, quince, white musk, and jasmine. The name says it all! This elegant and demure solid perfume from Chanel allows you to touch up on the go—anytime, anywhere!Key fragrance notes: amber/patchouli accord, rose, cinnamon, and black-currant buds. We highly recommend this solid version of one of our all-time favorite fragrances from Diptyque that is juicy, warm, and a little bit spicy. For long-lasting wear, the brand recommends you apply on your main pulse points (like the wrists, the insides of your elbows, the base of your neck, behind your ears, and atop your décolleté).Key fragrance notes: lime, iris, rose, ginger, patchouli, civet, and musk. The ingredients this solid perfume from Le Labo is made out of are almost as decadent as the classic, velvety scent. With sensitive skin in mind, it's alcohol-free and utilizes a hydrating blend of coconut, sweet almond, and soybean oils.Key fragrance notes: mandarin, basil, and amberwood. Lime Basil & Mandarin is one of Jo Malone's most signature scents, and they have a lot! We love the idea of throwing this in our tiniest purse, gym bag, or duffel and bringing it anywhere our post-quarantine travels take us. Key fragrance notes: jasmine trinity, bergamot, saffron, rose, and dark patchouli. Trust us. It doesn't get any more decadent than this rich, stunning scent that beautifully amplifies once you've applied it to your pulse points. It boasts three different types of delicate jasmine flowers, and, thanks to ingredients like jojoba oil and beeswax, dry skin will lap it up. (You can even apply it to the parched ends of your hair!)Key fragrance notes: geranium, vetiver, ylang-ylang, lavender, and patchouli. As if the stunning seashell compact wasn't enough to get you to pull out your credit card, this organic, botanical-based fragrance will seal the deal. The brand makes multiple scents, but this is our favorite floral profile. In fact, the ingredients are so healing you can dab it on as an impromptu scar treatment.Key fragrance notes: gardenia, tea leaves, sweet orange, and jasmine. Not only do we love this solid perfume thanks to its clean, nontoxic ingredients, but we also love it because it is easy on the wallet, is handbag ready, and is the next best thing to a tropical vacay in Tahiti. Plus, it will leave a pretty trail of shimmer wherever you choose to apply it. (It's amazing across the chest and over the collarbones!) Key fragrance notes: rose, lily, tuberose, and orange flower. Solid perfumes reign supreme when it comes to stunning packaging. We're beyond smitten with how vanity friendly this limited-edition perfume compact is from fragrance and beauty legend Estée Lauder. And the scent is just as covetable. (Think a rich bouquet starring all of your favorite flowers.)Key fragrance notes: strawberry, vanilla, lavender, sage. To be completely honest, it feels impossible to choose just one solid perfume from Lush's drool-inducing array of natural and vegan scents. That said, we're partial to this retro-inspired fragrance which channels vintage-milkshake vibes thanks to strawberry, vanilla, lavender, and sage.

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
