Portable perfumes are so handy and so smart, yet they're not something I always remember to put into my makeup bag. I can remember to throw in four different lip colors but not one fragrance. Maybe it's because I'm spoiled by the plethora of Sephora stores in the city to pop into for a quick spritz.

Lush, a company often referred to by those are unfamiliar with their breadth of products as the "soap store", has an amazing offering of solid perfumes. This Holiday Season, Lush has released three solid perfumes, each retailing for around $12. The Comforter is a sweet and uplifting fragrance, featuring notes of cypress and bergamont. Snowshowers can be described as a holiday-themed citrus. Sakura is soft, with notes of jasmine and mimosa.

Principessa Beauty, a company that subtly appeals to our inner princess, offers roll on pure perfume oil priced at $35. I tried Insolina, defined as Principessa's signature scent. I like to describe as bottled pink. Where cotton candy, bubble gum, sophistication and Elle Woods collide, Principessa somehow managed to bottle that event.

HollyBeth, a line which prides itself in utilizing natural ingredients, created a roll on fragrance featuring 100% essential oils, jojoba and vitamin e. Described as "sensual, earthy and floral", the scent is great for ladies who prefer more earthy notes in their fragrances. HollyBeth products are made in the US, which makes them perfect for your eco-conscious friend who seeks natural luxury.
