How to pack perfume - Packing tip

by Tracie A. Handley (RSS feed) on Mar 30th 2010 at 4:59PM

Want to smell great while traveling without risking your expensive -- and probably large -- bottle of fragrance? There are several options to try.
1.) Many fragrances are available in solid form, a great alternative.
2.) Ask for multiple samples of your favorite fragrance and pack those in a medicine (or similar) bottle with a tight seal.
3.) Spritz cotton balls and place in an airtight container. Rub on, or stick in a pocket, as you travel.
4.) Pour some of your usual fragrance into a plastic "spritz" bottle from the travel-size section of a grocery or drug store. It's cheaper than a travel atomizer.

Smell ya later!

GREAT ideas! A spilled or broken bottle of perfume can RUIN a trip, or result in an unexpected trip to a laundry or dry cleaner. Unfortunately, I know from experience. I'm going to try all 3 and see which is best for my travels.

What an excellent alternative! Apr 9th 2010 6:06PM

We travel a great deal and I have always taken sample vials of perfume, but not necessarily my signature fragrance. Now I will try spritzing the cotton balls for a quick "picker-upper". This will take up less space and be lighter to carry. Thanks!!

May you could try Travalo for bringing perfume along minus the bottle itself.
