I used to collect perfume samples, no matter what the fragrance was like. I always like to keep a perfume in my handbag to freshen up my scent during the day yet have never been inclined to lug around the full bottle of whatever I’m currently using (my bag is full enough thanks!). I’m totally late to the game on this one but I was recently sent a few of these little gems from Travalo and I can’t believe they’ve been missing from my life for so long!
The little spray bottles are a no spills way to carry around your perfume without exposing it to air (and lessening the quality). At £12.49 I think they are brilliant value as they hold 65 sprays of perfume each and can be used time and time again. They come in a veritable rainbow of colours so there is one to suit everybody and thanks to being glass free they are airline friendly too!
Filling the Travalo is super simple, you literally take the cap off of the perfume you want to use, pop the bottom of the tube on to the plastic connector and pump! I was amazed at how easy it was to do, with no mess or faffing around. Originally I had visions of having to carefully pour perfume in to the container- and anyone who knows me can only image where that would leave me!
I’ve been carrying my Travalo around in my little pouch from Its Not Me Its You so I can freshen up over the course of the day. I’m currently carrying around Optimistic by Paul Smith but once I’ve used that up I think I’ll switch to Prada Candy- my all time favourite scent! Mum and Best Friend have each been given one of these little gadgets too, I was so impressed with mine that I just had to share. In the name of giving an honest review I was trying to find a flaw, or downside to make it seem a little more neutral, but right now I just can’t!
What’s your signature daily scent?
What a great little thing. I have seen them lots recently and I thought that you somehow had to pour the perfume in too. But now that I know you don’t I think I will have to get one 🙂
I love Be Delicious by DKNY, so fresh!

Fashion, Well Done
Love the sound of this! I always carry a Rollerball perfume with me but they are hard to come by!
These are such a good idea! They’d be so good to take on holiday. My fave scent is by Chloe! x
Josie’s Journal
These are the best idea ever! xx
Ooh, yes, I’d like one of these!!
Oh my god your thumb bends back so much!
These are so cool, I used to have a similar thing from M&S but I lost it when we moved 🙁
