Same way all other fragrances are decanted - somebody buys the large bottle and empties out the juice into smaller bottles.

I understand but the bigger bottles dont have a sprayer making it easy. I am assuming the idea is to keep spraying into the vial until its full, correct?

If it doesn't have a sprayer then you use a dropper or something similar to measure out and transfer the liquids.

Try PM'ing them. People get wishy washy about these sorts of things.

I'm somewhat interested but I'm in Canada, thus the lack of a PM from me. Perhaps this is part of the issue?

I'd add that its much easier for larger decants without a sprayer. If you order from accessoriesforfragrances, they will usually throw in a few funnels and pipettes as freebies. 1ml, depending on the sprayer, is maybe 12 pumps. If you're trying to empty out a 100ml bottle, that's about 1200 pumps! And many sprayers will often start leaking after around 30-50 consecutive sprays, so you'll end up losing juice to spillage.

Spraying into a smaller bottle, especially with some of these oddly shaped bottles, is a tremendous pain **********. The bottles that I can open up and get into are so much ******* easier to work with. Not to mention the loss just from the eventual misting of the fragrance after spraying. You end up with an entire counter full of fragrance mist. That's fun to clean up.

Well so far I have one person who has expressed interest in 10 ml, but I am waiting to hear from him whether he's in for sure or not.

I don't know how much shipping to canada would cost, but would you guys be interested in $55-60 shipped?

Thats what i did. Ordered a couple of 1oz bottles from AFF. Took my TdH and decanted it using the funnel. Was not very pleased with the outcome. I mean it worked fine without spillage but its a pain **********.

That's what i am wondering while i read up on Bond 9 split. Dont see how that would work.

Do you suppose the fragrance loses some element while exposed to air or am i just imagining things?
