The sprayer on your perfume may be metal or plastic depending on the fragrance you have. If you have trouble pulling the sprayer off, wrap it in a paper towel and grip it with a pair of pliers. Metal travel atomizers can’t be refilled from a splash bottle without a sprayer.
If you don’t see an opening on the bottom of your travel bottle, carefully slide the metal casing off to expose the opening.
A typical travel perfume bottle holds 50 full sprays or about 0. 13 fluid ounces (3. 8 ml).
A bit of perfume may spray out when you put the sprayer back on, so point the bottle toward a sink so it doesn’t get into your eyes. It’s normal if your travel bottle doesn’t spray perfume for the first few pumps after you fill it. The first few pumps remove the air from the bottle before it starts spraying perfume.
Leave at least 1⁄4 in (0. 64 cm) of space at the top of your travel bottle so you can easily replace the sprayer. Put a small funnel in the mouth of the travel bottle to help catch all of the perfume so it doesn’t make a mess. Alternatively, take the sprayer off of the main perfume bottle and fit a plastic syringe over the nozzle. Press down on the nozzle and pull the syringe plunger up to pull out the fragrance. Then, put the syringe down in the travel bottle and press the plunger down to fill it. [7] X Research source
Put the cap on your travel bottle so the sprayer doesn’t accidentally get pressed down in your bag.
If your travel bottle comes with a decorative, metal casing, simply slip it off so you can see how much perfume is in the travel bottle.
Since splash bottles don’t have an atomizer that sprays, you apply it by dabbing a small amount of perfume or cologne onto your neck or wrist.
