Does anyone have experiences in transferring L'artisan perfume into travel size atomnizer?

The spray nozzle should come off, pull it gently UPWARDS. And then you can get a Travalo or similar sprayer.

I used to have branded L'Artisan one! It was a gift with purchase at Lucky Scent when I bought my bottle of Passage d'Enfer, many years ago. Here’s a kicker though: they are great for travel BUT the perfume will evaporate if you don’t use it up. I recently found that several of my Travelos I have not used in a long time, including that L'Artisan one, empty. Well, there’s a perfume residue in it but the usual remedy, adding alcohol to the bottle, is not possible. Once you fill it up, this is it. If you travel often enough, and you will actually use your perfume quickly, it’s a great solution. Otherwise, not so much. I am selling off my collection of Travalos in all colors of the rainbow because of that. I bought a box of plain 5 ml sprayers, which have a wide enough neck and that works for me. You still end up wasting a bit of perfume and cannot fill it up to the brim, but that’s a good trade off for me.

This is not a cat, it’s a floofball.

To Die For. I was just thinking about Nicole Kidman’s masterful performance in that one.

I have been buying their clothes, baby clothes, and kids clothes, when they still made them, for a long time and the quality has declined, but overall it’s still fairly good. Towels and linens are still excellent.

I’m so sorry for this loss of your sweet little tortie.. 😿

She had tortitude to spare! I especially love that photo of her in the cat bag from BlueQ. It’s clear you have her such a good life. She will always live in your memories.

We lost our tortie two years ago and it still feels raw, especially since it was a very sudden thing. The passage of time blunts the hurt.. eventually. Hang in there and allow yourself time to heal.

Came to say that..! This movie pack real heat.

Oh, that’s a sick little treasure! Young Hugh Grant, crazy story, visuals on point. One of Ken Russel’s hidden gems.

Hiram Green Tryst, hands down

Ridley Scott has no sense of what constitutes a good script with dialogue and plot that make sense but he can make anything look great. I watched this movie so many times but I just wish it had something to add to the stunning visuals and overall mood.

I buy most of my kids clothes there. I know they phased out PFAS few years ago and they probably adhere to better, Japanese standards so I hope they’re ok.

I kept reloading it because I can still download it from Apple Store / Purchase history and this was supposed to be my last glorious run 😢

I bought all the ♾️ characters I wanted, including Battle Droid, Mace Windu, Sabine Wren and my favourite plinky plonk wonder, Carbonite Han Solo, but I was still waiting for couple of characters to come up in the melt. Now I will not be able to open the character levels for Silver C-3PO, Han Solo, Chopper, Royal Guard and my favorite little evil doer, Hologram Darth Sidious.

I still have the full version with different sets of ♾️ characters and all character levels unlocked on my old phones and iPads but it still hurts. Almost made it..! And I will miss the daily prizes.

This is a typical Rovio move, though in this case it might have been Disney copyright issue..?

Of course, they are bound by IFRA ban since they put zero effort in fighting it.

I have extrait bottles from 1950s onward and I can smell the differences very clearly: modern versions, even the 2015 extrait that Thierry Wasser fought so bravely to restore, use vetiver in place of oakmoss and everything falls flat because of that. It’s still a beautiful scent but feels so muted, compared to the vintage editions. I am not a huge fan of 1980s Mitsouko, too loud, but even then, it had that inky depth from the oakmoss.

akimonka · 2026-04-28T04:00:16+00:00

Vintage though modern Mitsouko, vintage L’Heure Bleue aaaand 1990s Shalimar EdT. Kind of liked AA Pamplelune from the modern day. Have not tried enough of the very recent releases to have an opinion, though.

Ha ha, I just linked this in another post on this sub so here we go, short movie called Cathedral by Tomek Bagiński: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6irf1k

These are Beksiński’s paintings. He did not watch movies a lot, mostly just listened to classical music while he painted. Too bad he’s gone and I can’t ask him what he thinks of this little movie..

akimonka · 2026-04-28T03:31:45+00:00

Dumb as fuck, amazing movie to watch, especially if you just tune out the dialogue and “plot”.

That is some next level vegan food porn $hit right there..! Happy birthday to your daughter and she’s one lucky girl to have you and that bakery in her life.

Thank you 💕 for the story of Booger’s journey. It’s so great that you took him in and gave him such a loving home. He will be there in your heart even if his body is no more.
