There's a lot to love about solid scents: they're highly portable (no leaks), ideal for travelling (no worrying about liquid limitations on flights), more environmentally friendly (many of them are refillable), and typically smell stronger and last longer than their spray-on counterparts!

Sure, there are far fewer options to choose from as compared to liquid fragrances. But since Dior Beauty blew up the internet with the launch of its immensely popular Miss Dior roll-on perfume sticks, we couldn't help but hunt down a few other sophisticated and solid alternatives.

If you're looking to hop onto the trend, look no further. Here are 4 options to convert you to the realm of solid scents!

#1: Diptyque Solid Perfumes

Tucked away in gorgeous black lacquer cases, these Diptyque Solid Perfumes look more like compacts housing pressed powder than fragrances. But pop them open and you'll be greeted with an assortment of gentle, nature-inspired scents!
