00:00Okay, so I was packing for a two-week trip and realized big perfume bottles are a liability,
00:05one drip in your suitcase and everything smells like a shower.
00:08So I went hunting for the best solid perfumes under $5 for travel, and these five actually
00:13made the cut.
00:15First up is the Fongen Men's Solid Cologne, and it's the cheapest of the bunch at $3.37.
00:21It's a light, fresh scent, the kind that hits clean and doesn't announce itself to the entire
00:25airplane. Stick format, no cap to lose, and you can dab it on your wrists and neck on
00:30the go. Nearly 5,000 people bought it, so this one's already proven.
00:36Next is this Vanilla Solid Perfume at $3.70. If you like sweet but not cloying, this is
00:42the one. It actually lasts, not just an hour, more like a full day, which matters when you're
00:48traveling light and don't want to reapply every few hours. Also makes a solid last-minute
00:53gift. Over 4,000 sold, and it holds a 4.4 rating, so people keep coming back.
01:00Then there's the Pheromone Body Balm for Women, $3.49. The idea is simple, it's a light fragrance
01:06balm with pheromones worked in, so it sits close to the skin and smells like you, not like a
01:11perfume aisle. It's tiny, it fits in a carry-on, and the price is basically nothing. Highest rated
01:18of the first three at 4.5 stars, and still under $4.00. Now this one might be my favorite
01:24of the whole list. The Wooden Scented Solid Balm, $4.22. It smells like a campfire in Cedar,
01:31warm, a little smoky, and it does that thing where people ask what you're wearing. You get
01:36three scent options in this one too, so you can switch it up depending on the vibe. And
01:41it hit a 4.9 star rating. That's about as close to perfect as these get. And if you want
01:48the best
01:48bang for your buck, grab the four-piece set for $4.17. That's four different solid perfumes,
01:54floral and fruity blends, for the price of one bottle of the expensive stuff. It's like having
02:00a whole fragrance wardrobe for about a dollar a cent, and it packs so light it barely takes up room.
02:05Another 4.9, and honestly it's the easiest gift to buy someone.
