One of the fastest growing fragrance trends is rollerball-packaged scents. Travel-friendly, they are a low-commitment (very affordable) way to purchase a new perfume, and at this time of the year, they make a great Christmas gift. Editor Trudi Brewer shares her favourites.

Elizabeth & James Nirvana White, Rollerball, $39.
One of our favourite Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen fragrances is now available in an on-the-go rollerball. The blend of peony, lily of the valley and powdery musk, makes this scent feminine, yet contemporary.
Miu Miu EDP Rollerball, $35.
Our pick from Italian designer Miuccia Bianchi Prada is known as a sensual floral thanks to the blend of lily of the valley, dog rose, and a robust synthetic amber-like scent known as Akigala wood. If you like your fragrance punchy yet pretty this is a step in the right direction.
OdeJo Rollerball Oil, $61.
This gorgeous scent will transport you to a tropical island, think about a warm sea breeze with the scent of lily, Tahitian rose, cucumber oil, and sea kelp. While this is strictly a fresh floral fragrance the oil formula warms once on the skin to offer a musky, aquatic long-lasting scent.
