Anyone here have one??? http://www.itravalo.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrincessStar Posted August 9, 2012 #2 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Hi I love this product! I got mine at Sephora, it's similar. Easy to clean, works great! I also got one for my DH's cologne. TIP: If you want to change perfumes, fill the atomizer with rubbing alcohol and leave it for one day. Spray to empty the atomizer and rinse with hot water before use. :D:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComeSailWithME Posted August 9, 2012 #4 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Nifty product! I always buy a new perfume for any vacation I take, so that later on, when I wear it, I will recall my vacation. Our memories are triggered by scents :) That said, I only wear the one perfume and just bring the whole bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That looks great but it's too lat to order and I don't think I could open my favorite spray. How do you pack yours? I was thinking in a baggie, in a sock and then sticking it in a shoe in my checked baggage. Does that sound safe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xenagurl Posted August 9, 2012 #6 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Thanks for sharing. I'll look into that. I often order sample sizes and sometimes I spray cotton balls and double bag them in a ziploc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Open the large bottle to put the perfume in this small atomizer???? You simply remove the spray cap on the larger spray bottle, place the Travalo mini bottle over the tip and pump up and down a few times and it is filled.

djhatz Posted August 9, 2012 #8 Share Posted August 9, 2012 This is a great tip -thank you! Just ordered one in silver for our December cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolt Posted August 10, 2012 #9 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I usually just go to Macys and ask for samples. I have also asked for travel size of certain perfumes....if they don't have them they have a little plastic pump bottle (about an inch or so long that they will usually fill from their tester bottle...

BND Posted August 10, 2012 #11 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I wear Light Blue and it comes in a small spray bottle. I take that on all my vacations. I love getting samples from the perfume counters too. But, that is a great product if you want to take a smaller amount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My last purchase was actually a gift set, large and small bottle. I have been saving the small on for my next cruise. But this will allow me to take several fragrances without packing all my normally large bottles:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sail7seas Posted August 12, 2012 #14 Share Posted August 12, 2012 I looked at the order page but couldn't see how much the spray holds? Is it just a few sprays or is it maybe a dozen? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing wrong with taking the original bottles if that is what you want to do. But I like to take numerous fragrances. I usually buy larger bottles and really like the option of having them with me in a more convenient size. Plus, it's a nice size just to be able to throw in your purse without taking up much space. I tend to carry small purses on vacation, and once I get my wallet and a few other things in there, there is no room for a regular size bottle of perfume. Nice to have, not just for cruising, but everyday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharod Posted August 13, 2012 Author #19 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Oh, and I wanted to add, on my last cruise, my one piece of luggage never made it to my stateroom. Still have not seen it to this day:(. It had all my and my hubby's perfumes/cologne in it. Also had body lotions, shampoo/conditioner, hairspray, suntan lotions, you get the picture. I did have travel insurance, but it doesn't cover "unnecessary" items. That was a lot of $$$$ that I had to replace. Perfumes/cologne being the most expensive. I do carry my make-up(mineral) in my carry-on which is always with me. Now with this new item, I can pack it with my make-up. It will take up minimal space and weigh next to nothing. TSA approved, so no worries with flying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GORDONCHICK Posted August 13, 2012 #20 Share Posted August 13, 2012 I've tried different atomizers and didn't like them - mostIf you go to fragrancenet.com you can order travel sizes of almost all of the top fragrances. I ordered one of my husband's cologne and 3 of my favorite fragrances for travel, though not all are sprays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarheelmjfan Posted August 15, 2012 #24 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I switch back & forth between two Chanel fragrances. They're too expensive to risk losing, so my perfume takes up most of my liquid allowance for flying. I keep it in the original box, then place it in a ziploc bag to place on the belt through security. I'd much rather lose shampoo, conditioner, lotion, etc. than my perfume. The only things I make sure to keep with me at all times are my perfume & prescription meds. If your perfume is expensive, I wouldn't check it on the plane or on the ship.

CELTICGIRLCRUISER Posted August 16, 2012 #25 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I have used one of these for about 25 years and it is a great way to transport your perfume especially with the restrictions on air travel nowadays. Talking of Chanel. I adore Coco, have worn if for 30 years after getting a very small sample from my chemist when I was a very young teen, and they do a small spray which you just swap the spray part onto a new bottle and these are a great size for throwing in your purse.
