    Next do a set of wee bottles of mens aftershaves and M&S do sets with a small shower gel, aftter shave balm and EDT or similar in them, not very expensive but do not smell cheap.

    Get one of these - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Personal-Products-Compact-Perfume-Atomiser/dp/B001EXAPES/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1343041911&sr=8-2

    There's more on Amazon but the link's too long, & I can't do short links. I usually take the mini bottles that you get at Christmas.
  • In a similar vein to Duke's idea, I have a travalo. It's light weight, easy to fill, hasn't leaked and generally better than other atomisers I've had in the past.

    Yup - get yourself a pocket atomiser and a perfume funnel and the job is done. I find you get a good couple of weeks out of each fill.

    If you buy a Travalo you don't need a funnel to refill.

    The bottle does have to have one of the removable tops though as you put the Travalo over that and pump the after-shave/perfume through into the Travalo.

    Most of my OH's after-shave bottles don't have these.

    I have a number of Travalos with different fragrances in as they are handy if you only have a small handbag.

    Just make sure you wash the wee out first ;)

  • Superdrug have a good selection of mini ones that would last a few weeks for about £4.
    M&S also have a good selection.

    Travalo is great, I have a couple of them to keep in handbags and use when travelling http://www.amazon.co.uk/Travalo-Refill-Travel-Perfume-Atomizer/dp/B002FQKKBQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1343501720&sr=8-1 (good price just now) or have a look in Home Bargains as they have a similar one for 99p

    Nothing to do with me of course,

    but a friend posed this question, why do women (or men) wear perfume and make-up.

    The only answer we could think of was because they think they're smelly and ugly.

    That's me banned then :cool:
