Ralph Lauren "Love," Solid Parfum in a Compact

There's a new fragrance concept in town from Ralph Lauren: Love, Ralph Lauren Solid Parfum Compact.

This attractive little 18k gold-plated compact fits in the palm of your hand and can be engraved both inside and out with the loving words of your choice. The closure button is adorned with a Swarovski crystal. The white you see inside the compact is a waxy, balm-like Love-scented solid.

For those not familiar with Ralph Lauren Love, it's a bold and romantic floral intended to encapsulate the intrigue of the rare Bulgarian rose. The wax carries the fragrance very well, and just a swipe of it lasts for hours.

This sensual gift is available exclusively from Saks Fifth Avenue in New York City. Give them a call and beg them to ship you one at (212) 753-4000, and check out the gallery to see the compact (and the luxe packaging) in person.

Estee Lauder makes some of the most beautiful perfume compacts around. Current designs includes the Great Wall of China, a crystal-covered feather, a tiny turtle and a sparkling sailboat. Perhaps the most extraordinary is the design they have created to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Neiman Marcus. The monarch butterfly is made of black enamel, orange and clear crystals and golden highlights. The compact is filled with Beautiful solid perfume and sells for $300.

Ginger Essence Solid Perfume

Since you can't take liquids in your carry-on luggage, thousands of women have had to change some of the staples in the makeup bags so that they'll make it onto the plane with them. Most cosmetics come in solid forms, like lipsticks, or powders, so they are relatively easy to replace, but perfumes pose a problem. I, for one, don't want to check my bag for one small vial of perfume, nor do I want to replace my bottle upon arrival at my destination. The solution is to find a solid perfume, like this limited edition Ginger Essence from Origins, which can be applied with a touch and is packed in a collectible silver compact. The scent is spicy but cool and is a great way to reinvigorate yourself after a long flight. Price: $65.
