What Can I Do with Empty Glass Perfume Bottles

What Can I Do with Empty Glass Perfume Bottles?
Wondering what to do with those glass perfume bottles? Here are some practical, eco-friendly and creative ways to give your favorite fragrance bottles a second life.

  1. Refill & Reuse
    Simply top them up with the same perfume or a new scent and keep the cycle going.
  2. Recycle Responsibly
    Remove any metal caps or spray mechanisms, rinse the glass thoroughly, and drop the bottle in your glass-recycling bin.
  3. Closet Freshener
    Place the empty bottle—still holding a hint of perfume—on a closet shelf. The remaining fragrance will slowly diffuse, leaving your clothes delicately scented.
  4. Decorative Piece
    Clean the bottle and fill it with tiny dried flowers, colorful beads, miniature bells or fairy lights to create an eye-catching ornament for shelves or desks.
  5. Mini Travel/Storage Vial
    Decant other beauty liquids—toner, serum, hand sanitizer—into the attractive bottle for on-the-go touch-ups.
  6. Collector’s Keepsake
    Keep every empty as a memento of scents you’ve loved; over time you’ll build a unique, personal “perfume museum.”
  7. DIY Cooling Mist
    Rinse the bottle, fill with clean water, and store in the refrigerator. On hot days, spritz yourself for an instant cool-down.
