If the bottle is older than 25 years and is a vintage: - Get some pure alcohol and dab some of the alcohol around the stuck stopper to let the alcohol seep in and loosen whatever stuck elements are there, then try to twist the top off.
To refill a perfume travel bottle, first pull of the cap from your main bottle so you're left with the nozzle sticking out. Remove the outer metal casing from your travel bottle, which will make it easier to fill up. Then, place the travel bottle on top of the nozzle, taking care to line up the red dot with the nozzle.
Buy a travel-size bottle with an atomizer (a type of spray top that releases mist) and transfer a small amount of cologne into it. Use a small funnel to do this, or use a plastic sandwich bag with a corner cut off as a DIY funnel. Next, secure the bottle to keep any leaked liquid from reaching your other belongings.
A coilless atomizer makes it easy to clean up. But a removable coilless atomizer makes it really easy to clean up. You just unscrew the atomizer, let the cup pop out, soak it if you must, or just wipe it out with a q tip and, of course, some isopropyl alcohol.
Simply remove the top of your perfume sprayer and insert the tube into the base of the atomizer, then pump to fill. The patented filling system is leakproof, and with each push, perfume sprays into the Atomizer. You can watch it fill up through the clear window. When filled, it holds 65 sprays!
Re: Do you reuse your atomizers? No. The only thing I reuse are the official sample vials---without the spray. They get thoroughly cleaned however a PITA to dry.
If it is just a plastic atomizer then you can take it apart and soak it in Dawn dishwashing liquid for a day or two then fill it with rubbing alcohol and spray it through the tube and nozzle at intervals letting the alcohol sit in the spray tube a bit. That will clean it out if you wan to refill it with another scent.
The inner compartment simply lifts out of the casing to reveal the plastic refillable tube. This has a valve at the bottom which easily fits over the nozzle on your perfume bottle. You literally pump the refill tube up and down on the bottle of your favourite scent and the perfume is transferred.
The atomizer of old is essentially a bulb syringe attached to plastic tubing that runs inside the perfume bottle. The atomizer mixes oxygen and liquid perfume, creating a fine mist, which is evenly distributed onto the skin or into the air. Modern atomizers create the same action without the bulb attachment.
Steps
- Undo the atomizer sprayer from the bottle.
- Swish denatured or fragrance-free alcohol (such as plain vodka). Try to reach all parts of the bottle.
- Drain out the alcohol.
- Rinse with hot water.
- Drain. Let air dry.
- To remove any stains inside the bottle, use a cotton swab.
How Do Perfume Atomizers Work? Today, atomizers have a bottle with a tube that is connected to a nozzle. When the nozzle is engaged or pressed, it releases a small amount of spray through it. Atomizers mix oxygen and liquid perfume to create a fine mist, enabling you to release a small amount of perfume.
I usually mix water and alcohol (50/50) and just spray it through to cleanse it well. Then just spray water through to remove the alcohol and you have a clean atomizer!!
- Remove the nozzle from the perfume bottle.
- Put the nozzle into a small bowl and fill the bowl with very hot water until the nozzle is covered.
- Let the nozzle soak in the hot water for five minutes.
- Discard the hot water from the bowl.
- Leave the nozzle to soak for two hours in the rubbing alcohol.
Just remove the spray head from your perfume bottle, line up the base of the perfumepod with the nozzle that comes out the bottle and then pump the Pod on top of the bottle a few times and you will see the perfume fill up the Pod.
The Perfume Pod is extra simple in its design and impresses with high robustness. The transparent surface allows you anytime to look at the filling quantity, so you can refill your perfume in time if necessary. The inconspicuous Perfume Pod fits into any pocket and allows you a pleasant touch of freshness.
With a large syringe and thin needle suck up the juice from new bottle. Put needle in the tube's hole under the sprayer (you'll see it when you take the sprayer off-it just pops off). And fill.
Put the straw into the bottle of perfume and then put your finger over the top. Keeping your finger over it, remove the straw and put it into the atomizer and let your finger go -- the perfume will go into the container.
