If you’re like me, you probably have a few old bottles of perfume lying around, gathering dust.
Instead of throwing them away, here are a few ways you can make good use of your old perfumes. Before you do this, just be sure that you still love the scent first.
1) Use them to freshen the air in your home instead of an air freshener. Spritz the perfume lightly over carpets, fabric sofas, curtains, cloth-covered chairs, tablecloths, or bedlinen.
2) Similarly, you could use it to freshen the air in your car if you have cloth-covered seats.
3) Use them in a hot bath. Instead of using aromatic oils, try a few drops of perfume into the hot water. You’ll feel pampered and relaxed.
4) Re-scent old fresheners, or make new ones by spraying the perfume over rice (uncooked of course) and putting them in a small cloth bag or container. You could leave these small bags in your drawers and re-scent them over time to keep the smell fresh.
5) Save your old perfumes for heavy card-sending occasions like Christmas. Before you mail out your Christmas cards, spray the stationery with your perfume. You could also do this on wedding invitations for that extra romantic feel. Your guests will love them!
That’s all folks!
