B-glowing has introduced two new collections of solid twist-up perfumes from Crazylibellule & The Poppies, Les Divines Alcoves and Poule de Luxe.

Stila has introduced solid versions of its Creme Bouquet (vanilla, pink lilac and lily of the valley) and Jade Blossom (green tea, cucumber and lemon verbena) fragrances.

Stila, by the way, has just been sold by Estee Lauder…
