6 solid perfumes to bring with you in your mini bag

When you’re carrying a small purse or handbag for your night out, it’s important that you’re picking the right stuff to store in your bag. Of course, your keys, wallet, lipstick and hand sanitiser are a must. But what if you want to bring along a small bottle of your favourite scent too? Well, that’s where solid perfumes come in handy.

Most of the time, these solid perfumes usually come in small compact sizes so you can easily store them in your purse. On top of that, it’s perfect especially if you need to freshen up and smell good all day long.

However, the only downside about solid colognes is that they usually don’t last very long on your skin as compared to your perfumes. So you might find yourself reapplying more often than you usually do.

Nevertheless, these handy solid perfumes are still convenient and perfect to bring along with you wherever you go. To have a look at some of our favourites, keep on scrolling.
