Le Labo solid perfume, $85
If you're terrified of spritzing so much perfume that you feel like you'll faint, here's a genius alternative: Solid perfume. These discreet metal tins from Le Labo are filled with a wax made of sweet almond oil, coconut oil and soybean oil that's totally free of alcohol, phthalates and paraben. The wax is scented with the single-note fragrance extract of your choice (we recommend Fleur D'Oranger and Jasmine). Then you just rub a touch of it onto your wrists or neck -- and voila. We (almost) promise you won't faint.

For a more affordable solid perfume, try this vegan, cruelty free and eco-conscious option. Pacifica makes its solid perfume with organic soy and coconut wax, blended with natural and essential oils -- and this beach-scented pick smells just like vacation. Think: Lemon blossom, salt and seaside flowers. It's unmistakable, but not overwhelming. Plus, the packaging is adorable, which doesn't hurt.
