There are so many hacks to life, and perfumes also has hack I bet you don’t know. You can still use your favourite perfume other than on the skin though passing the shelf life. Below are the ways you could still get benefits from from your bucks:
1. Scented diffuser
One of the alternative uses for perfume is saving your dollars and risks buying unknown scented diffusers. Grab an empty diffuser bottle, mix using up perfume with distilled water in a 1:1 ratio (you can adjust it to your liking). The mixture may turn a bit of milky white. Put some reed diffusers in. Voila! It’d scent heavenly.
2. How to use perfume as air freshener
All you need to do is spraying the leftover perfume on dry cotton balls or unscented dried flowers. Once things are done, you can place these little fragrant wonders in the drawer, wardrobe, wherever else in the room, or under the pillow (in my personal experience, lavender scent works damn well relaxing my moods and helping with sleeping).
3. Room spray
Now that we have air freshener, can you use perfume as room spray? Mix 10ml of anhydrous ethanol with 50ml of distilled water in a mist bottle, add a few drops of unwanted perfume, and you’ll get a wonderful homemade perfume spray.
Now consider using it on the carpet, bed sheets, the clothes you’ll wear tomorrow, and other fabrics at home. Just remember to use it up within two weeks in case it goes bad.
4. Bulb aroma vaporizer
Spray or apply the perfume directly on the lightbulb, so when heated up, it will serve as the sources of fragrance to keep your home smelling good.
5. DIY scented bath
A few drops of perfume in the bathtub will make a simple aromatic bath. Imagine how soothing it is when we step into a bathroom filled with pleasing aroma after work!

6. Scented toilet roll
This is a classic way for perfume uses. It will definitely boost your guests’ happiness when they smell the pleasing scent in the washroom, and the smell of toilet roll is part of that. Of course, if you don’t want to spray the perfume directly on toilet roll, spraying on its cardboard is a perfect alternative
7. Fragrant tester on-the-go
Spray the perfume on the tester paper, and put in your wallet or bag, so the aroma you love will accompany you on the way.
