The 10 Best Rollerball Perfumes to Keep in Your Bag
Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. You don't know stress until you're unpacking your goods at TSA and they ask you to throw away your favorite luxury fragrance because it doesn't fit the size requirements. Thankfully, many (many) ages ago, someone somewhere decided to compress full-size perfumes into miniature, rollerball vials to protect your investment and minimize stress when traveling. Whether you purchase rollerball perfumes as a way to discover new scents or just need a midday scent tune-up, rollerball perfumes are a quick refresh for the busy beauty bee on the go. Not only can they fit in the smallest purses, gym bags, or pockets, but they also cost a fraction of a typical perfume, so you can spritz away without buyer's remorse. Ahead, shop the 10 best rollerball perfumes and fragrance oils you never knew you needed. Key notes: creamy coconut, creamy sandalwood, salted musk. Sephora star rating: 4.6/5 stars Our expert says: 'Once coconut is included in a scent's composition, I'm sold. Coconut can lean a little cheap and childish if it's not supported by the right ingredients, but Nest's Balinese Coconut hits all the right notes. Thanks to creamy sandalwood and salted musk, this oil takes you away from the pina colada-sipping tropical vacation and into a damp, tropical forest.' — Nerisha Penrose, beauty commerce editor Key notes: Brazilian orange, pink pepper, grapefruit, myrrh, nutmeg, bourbon geranium Our expert says: 'I love that this scent was thoughtfully made to inspire peace of mind and balance because the woodsy, earthy notes evoke the feeling of lounging in a tranquil spa. It's both spicy and sparkling, thanks to a beautiful meld of pink pepper and grapefruit, and deepens with nutmeg and bourbon.' — NP Key notes: ear blossom, white gardenia, brown sugar, patchouli It's hard to be upset or down when wearing Gucci's Flora Gorgeous Gardenia. Floral, feminine, and bright, this perfume feels like strolling through a botanical garden on a breezy spring morning. White gardenia, jasmine, and pear blossom offer a cheerful burst and sweetness. Ulta star rating: 4.4/5 stars Our expert says: 'It's a delightfully floral scent that screams Spring. A friend gifted me this and it's become a staple in my fragrance repertoire. It's the perfect fragrance to wear on a Saturday brunch date.' ~ Danielle James, Beauty Director Key notes: Madagascar vanilla, creamy tonka bean Lavanila's Pure Vanilla is an uncomplicated gourmand delight. The scent is built around Madagascar vanilla and creamy tonka bean to create a warm, inviting softness. Amazon star rating: 4.1/5 stars An Amazon reviewer said: 'This product smells wonderful, it goes really well with my body chemistry, and it lasts for a long time. Money well spent!!' Key notes: ambrette, Jamaican naseberry, sandalwood, crisp amber, While inspired by its floral namesake, Byredo's Mojave leans more earthy and mysterious than floral. It takes you for a ride, from smoky sandalwood and cedarwood to musky with ambrette and amber. Neiman Marcus star rating: 4.6/5 A Neiman Marcus reviewer said: 'Beautiful fragrance! Blends exquisitely with my body chemistry! Certainly highly recommended!' Key notes: ylang ylang, damascene rose, grasse jasmine In J'adore, each floral star has its own spotlight, although it's jasmine that's the Beyoncé of the formula. The floral notes were carefully selected, from fruit and flirty ylang ylang to the tender sweetness of rose. J'adore's allure comes at the hands of jasmine, which ties together this seductive floral bouquet. Ulta star rating: 4.6/5 stars An Ulta reviewer said: 'Love love love this smell! I feel so pretty when I wear it. I get so many compliments. I am hooked.' Key notes: coconut, eucalyptus (Coconut Wave); almond blossom, pistachio (Soft Vanilla); frozen lemon, lime zest (Crisp Citrus) What exactly does a 'summer Friday' smell like? According to the brand, it smells a lot like coconuts, pistachio, and lemons. Luckily, you don't have to choose one scent—this trio gives you three different moods to choose from depending on what you want your 'Friday' to feel like. Coconut Wave transports you to an idyllic seaside vacation; Soft Vanilla is reminiscent of a bakery shop, and Crisp Citrus evokes the feeling of a cool frozen lemon sorbet dripping down your hands on a warm summer day. Revolve star rating: 4.7/5 stars A Revolve reviewer said: 'Okay, I will admit I bought these for the aesthetic. I'm really into neutrals, LOL, but I love the scents as well! (duh!). The vanilla is in my pretty and mature. Not too sweet! :)' Key notes: white amber, musk Very few feelings compare to that of freshly washed sheets or salty ocean waves. Lake & Skye's 11 11 fragrance bottles up these light, refreshing notes—with a hint of musk–to evoke those memories on the go. Ulta star rating: 4.6/5 stars An Ulta reviewer said: 'It's a beautiful light fragrance. I have to admit, when I first sprayed it, I really thought that I didn't care for it. As it dried down, it became one of my all-time favorites. I am frequently asked what I'm wearing. Very light.' Key notes: musk Musk may be the most immediate note you smell, but this fragrance oil also has a soft, fresh side. Thanks to its main oil concentration coming from jojoba oil, the scent kisses your skin and leaves an arousing fascination in its wake. Ulta star rating: 4.5/5 stars An Ulta reviewer said: 'This is the longest-lasting perfume I have ever had. I get many compliments on it.' Key notes: raspberry, wild rose, plum Sunshine and florals are all you smell when you spritz Daisy Eau So Fresh. It's bright, joyful, and youthful without feeling immature, courtesy of fruity florals like rose and plum. Sephora star rating: 4.5/5 stars A Sephora reviewer said: 'Really enjoy this perfume. It's the perfect girly scent for spring, but I feel like it's neutral enough to wear anytime throughout the year.'

'Distinctive' designer perfume that 'lasts over 24 hours' 50% less in Boots deal
This beloved Givenchy fragrance has remained a staple for many perfume buffs since it debuted in 1991. Purchasing a new perfume is something that can be both exciting and expensive. It can be even pricier if that said bottle is one that has earned a famed reputation over the years. Fortunately, Boots has come to rescue our bank balance by offering up to half-price on major brands such as Calvin Klein, Armani, BOSS, Ghost, Davidoff and much, much more. One that has earned an almost perfect rating is the Givenchy Amarige Eau de Toilette, with reviews calling it a "timeless" and "distinctive" scent that has been a staple for many since the early 90s. Even better, a large 100ml is now just £54.50, although it would usually cost £109, meaning shoppers are saving a full 50 percent off the RRP. Priced at £74.99 at The Perfume Shop, Boots is offering the better deal for customers. Making its debut in 1991, Givenchy's Amarige, which is an anagram of the word mariage, has been described as a "veritable hymn to love" and was initially created as a fragrance for summer, so perfect for this time of year. Givenchy Amarige Eau de Toilette, 100ml £109 £54.50 Boots Buy here Product Description Its scent makes up a "beautiful bouquet of white flowers", with top notes of tangerine, violet and rosewood being mixed with heart notes of gardenia, mimosa, red fruits and ylang-ylang. The scent then finishes on "vibrant yet muted" base notes of ambergris, precious woods, musks and vanilla. The bottle, which was designed by perfume legend Pierre Dinand, takes inspiration from the ruffles sleeves of a Bettina Blouse designed by Givenchy. Looking for something a touch more modern, but with the same floral scent? Then Gucci's Flora Gorgeous Gardenia also boasts a floral-powered scent, with a 30ml now costing £41.49 after being reduced from £70. A bolder floral fragrance that other shoppers might want to consider is the Jimmy Choo Blossom Eau de Parfum, currently a number one bestseller on Amazon where a 40ml has been reduced from £36 to £18.95. As for the Givenchy fragrance, it has currently earned itself a 4.8 rating based on multiple reviews from Boots shoppers who have praised it as "so classy" and "the best perfume of all times."

One five-star review read: "I bought this on offer at Boots, it was around £30 cheaper than anywhere else! It has an amazing timeless distinctive scent must be tried!" A second loyal fan said: "The best perfume of all times! So classy! I'm glad it is back for it has been my signature perfume for more than a decade. Intense. Long lasting. Amazing. Complements galore!" While a third fan remarked: "I have been using this perfume for almost 20 years - even now I am still complimented on the scent. I don't know how to describe it really, but it's different to a lot of the overpowering floral scents that are popular at the moment, it's classy and I love it. My daughter loves it too!" Beauty deal of the week Beauty fans looking to get a golden glow will know the benefit of tanning drops. One bottle that has "blown away" shoppers is the Garnier Ambre Solaire Natural Bronzer Self Tan Face Drops - and they cost under £11 a bottle. Ideal for those who don't want to go through the hassle of using a tanning mitt to prevent patchiness or orange-tones, these "lightweight" drops can be easily mixed into your favourite moisturiser for a flawless glow. Since the drops offer a "buildable" bronzed look, many reviews have suggested that one of the positives is the ability to "control" the depth of their tan, unlike other products that deliver just one specific shade. Enriched with skin-loving ingredients hyaluronic acid and coconut water, these Garnier drops also work to keep your skin "intensely moisturised" day by day. Of course, with the reputation Garnier's Natural Bronzer Face Drops have earned, it's no surprise they have 4.2 rating based on over 2,000 reviews on Amazon alone, as shoppers call them a "little bottle of magic" for a "natural sun-kissed glow." One purchaser said: "Blown away! I'm not a phaffer. I generally don't bother with things like tan and bronzer. But this little bottle of magic changed all that! I love it! I pop it on with my moisturiser and a couple of hours later I am actually glowing! "I've been asked repeatedly if I've been on holiday, lost weight, got a new person, had a facelift or found a genie in a bottle. I'm so scared of running out I've stocked up!!" Shop the Garnier Ambre Solaire Natural Bronzer Self Tan Face Drops for £10.67 on Amazon here. As perfume preferences can differ, one shopper did find the scent a little "mature" for a younger audience. They said: "I purchased this perfume based solely on the reviews that I read here. I decided to give it a try. "Not the type of fragrance that I was looking for. I am 29, I believe that a more mature in age woman would appreciate this fragrance. Not what I was expecting." Nevertheless, another positive review read: "It smells really good and the perfume lasted for more than 24 hours." Shop Boots' half-price deal on the Givenchy Amarige Eau de Toilette (100ml) here.
