makes me sneeze and itch. What should I do with it? Isnt it sacrilegious to pour it down the drain?

Weird, huh? It smells very clean. Surprisingly cilantro lotion smells good to me, too.

(20,176 posts)There's a lot of uses for perfume you don't want or can't wear, most of which are of the air-freshener variety.
-You can spray the insides of the TP-roll...it'll soak into the cardboard and slowly evaporate acting as an air freshener. Dowse cotton balls with it and leave them in your dresser as sachets. Likewise, spray it into the air before you leave in the morning and it'll settle into the carpets and act as a room spray.
If you hate the scent, spray it on old rags and leave them on the perimeter of your garden...the scent deters herbivores from eating your plants.
If you're crafty, you can use them to make bath salts...one 2oz. bottle of perfume will make several pounds of bath salts for gifting.
