Great use for unwanted perfume gifts

Okay, I am a teacher so I get lots of perfumed sprays/sets, etc. as gifts. I really do appreciate the thought behind them, but just can't take the cloying scent on most of this stuff (I don't wear perfume! Usually just scented lotions).

Anyway, I bought these beautiful, tiny perfume bottles from Dollar Tree. I filled them with the perfumes (they are different colors) and displayed them in my bathroom. So they look great and then I got a notion to start dumping them into the toilet bowl

I pour a little in there, swish the toilet brush around a few times and let it sit there a while. The alcohol content disinfects/cleans the bowl, plus it is diluted enough that it makes the bathroom smell nice without being overwhelming.

Anyway- thought anyone in the same boat might try this

Re: Great use for unwanted perfume gifts

You know, I love this idea, thanks for sharing. I have a friend who always gets me cheap stuff and I can't use most of it because it makes mine or andywon's allergies act up but if it's diulted it would be fine. YEAH! Thanks for the great idea.
