How do I decant cologne into a vial?
How do I decant cologne into a vial?
The sample vials from Penhaligon and Floris are perfect for carrying in the car or pocket for a quick touch-up. They're small and highly portable, and since they're labeled with the name of the fragrance (unlike the smaller, unlabeled Trumper samples), I'm never in doubt about what's inside.
Can anyone recommend a device for refilling the vial from the full bottle? Should I look in chemists' supply catalogs for a particular size of glass funnel? I'm sure this problem was solved long ago, but as yet I haven't come across the solution.
Regards,
Porter

Don't give up. There is a thread here somewhere where I got a kit that had everything you need to reload colognes/edts into small spray vials.. It included a slender stemmed plastic squeeze bulb to insert into a dropper type bottle, and a tiny funnel that you can spray into from spray bottles and collect the contents in the vial. You insert the little spray unit when the vial is full and slap on one of the blank labels and put it in a small zip lock bag, also supplied. It worked perfectly for me to send my grandsons each a collection of my favorite scents for Christmas this year. And the punch line is that I don't recall the site where I got them. Got a new computer and lost the emailed receipt record. Search threads on this forum or google for them.

No, that looks like a nice complete kit but I got a simple kit just for my purposes. It was
