As described on http://us.travalo.com/:
The Easy Refill Fragrance Spray

Have you ever wished you could have a quick freshen up when you're out and about?
Carrying a big glass perfume or aftershave bottle is inconvenient, cumbersome and can be dangerous if it takes a knock and shatters.

Travalo is a refillable atomizer bottle with a difference. Its patented easy fill system allows you to refill in seconds with a simple repeat pump action. Travalo makes it easy and convenient to have a fresh confidence boost any time, anywhere.

Fresh fragrance wherever you go...

For the longest time, I've purchased small glass atomizers to carry my perfume with me in my purse. I filled these glass atomizers by CAREFULLY spraying my perfume into the open neck of the bottle. This was a very tedious and time consuming task, I usually ended up with perfume ALL over my hands, the bottle and whatever else was around me at the time. Point being, it was a PAIN to fill these bottles - waste of time, money & waste of a lot of perfume (because it would spray everywhere except the bottle most of the time). I then found Travalo.... WHAT A GREAT INVENTION. It was EXACTLY what I needed.

First thoughts:

* Cute overall packaging. They really took time to make the outer packaging appealing. I like it.
* The Travalo unit I received was a cute rosy pink color. They have more colors available (see http://us.travalo.com/)
* The atomizer itself feels cold to the touch when you first pick it up. It has a nice weight to it (while empty) and a nice smooth finish. It feels nice in your hand. I was pretty impressed by the quality of this piece.

Filling the Atomizer:

* To fill the spray, you will need to remove the spray head of your perfume. Insert the nozzle of your perfume into the bottom of the Travalo and pump until full. You can see the level of perfume inside the Travalo from the level indicator window on the side of the unit. This feature is VERY handy. You can always see how much you are putting in and while you're using it, you'll always know how much is left.
* First fill: When I filled the Travalo for the first time, I was very impressed. Companies always make things look easy, but this truly was as easy as it looks to fill. The unit filled up quick and the best part of all, there was NO PERFUME LOST in the process!! For this reason alone, I LOVE THIS PRODUCT.

If you like to carry your perfume with you, this is a MUST HAVE. No more lost perfume, no more wasting time trying to fill a standard glass atomizer.... Travalo is quick, easy & mess-free. A++ in my book.

With the holidays right around the corner, this is a perfect gift for any fragrance lover in your life. They will love you for it.

Additional Details:

Pricing: Travalos range in price from $15.99 up. They also offer gift sets on their website.

Overall:

A++ product. I will definitely be purchasing more as well as giving them as gifts. This is now a permanent item in my purse. BEST PART - NO MORE WASTED PERFUME EVER. Thank you Travalo, this is a great product.
