TOTD 090308: perfume application

[Guest guest]

How do you make for application of your perfumes? Atomizer? Roll-on?

Does it depend on the medium, alcohol, oil, etc.? Do you leave an

open bottle and let folks figure it out for themselves? Have you

already decided on something or are you still in process?

I prefer roll-ons. I've been looking for an elegant roll-on bottle to

no avail. Recently it occurred to me (I thought of Perfume) that in

the old days it was common to put some perfume on a handkerchief and

then wipe it where you want. Now I plan to give handkerchiefs with my

open-bottle perfumes for this purpose, fabric embroidered with my

logo of course. One cool thing about this approach is that then one

can put the perfumed handkerchief in a purse or briefcase or drawer

for added olfactory pleasure.

I've decided I will sell alcohol and solid perfumes (which I'll call

perfume balms). I don't yet know what packaging I'll use for the

balms. Tracking down vintage compacts is something I think I can't

handle. I haven't yet looked (I've found the bottles I'll use for

liquid perfume from ABA Packaging) but I'll be looking for nice jars

that I can get for cheap. Any suggestions?

I sell my perfume in small bottles with a screw on top and include in

the gift bag a tiny roll on and alternate top.
