Travela hand bag perfume spray question?

[Minimammoth]

Friend has given me one of these got Christmas. The perfume is disgusting, I have sprayed and sprayed to empty it. How to get rid of smell? Will just refilling it with something else cover it up?

[peasandlove]

don't they come empty? lol

[Madaboutthrows]

Check out you tube.

Travelo sprays come empty, as peas says.

They are just travel bottles for you to decant your own EDT/EDP into.

This is a wind up!!!
Still, it made me smile

[Minimammoth]

No not a wind up honest. If it came empty, my friend filled it with perfume, not to my taste shall we say. So I have squirted away ( outside) to empty. Have put some of my own into it to see if I can drown out hideous previous smell.

Ah sorry for doubting you.

Hope you get rid of the smell you don't like.

[Minimammoth]

Thanks Holly, I shall need to be tactful when thanking friend.

[peasandlove]

yes, please don't say what was that terrible perfume in it..

[hollyisalovelyname]

Do try and find out what she put in it

If it is a refillable bottle couldn't you have just unscrewed the lid and tipped the perfume away?

[SqueezyCheeseWeasel]

The lids don't unscrew, Dexter, they are sealed units. You fill them via a pump mechanism thing that sucks the perfume up through the bottom of the travelo using the spray top of your regular perfume.

[SqueezyCheeseWeasel]

It's like a valve thing that you pump.

[dexter73]

I see, it is like a refillable cigarette lighter.

I have one but want to put my new perfume in it. Does anyone know how to clean them?

[MooMinCow]

You don't need to clean them. Once empty and you refill with a new perfume the old perfume fades after a few sprays. I have a few and tend to keep one for floral scents, one for orientals etc.

[Minimammoth]

Cheesy did your one have perfume in it when you baught it?

[Cheesymonster]

No mini. It came empty and I put my own perfume in it (Britney Spears Circus Fantasy ) and have been using it so it's nearly empty. Got new perfume for Christmas (Flowerbomb) and now I want to put that in it but I don't want to mix the smells, or waste any of the new stuff cos it was expensive!

[Minimammoth]

Likewise, I did not want to mix smells either, thus my original question, I have half filled with my own now to see what happens. Will try it out tomorrow.
