When traveling where scents are required, i.e. weddings, ballroom dancing, fancy corporate dinner parties and the sticky hotel room affairs that follow – many experts advise spraying or dabbing perfume onto cotton swabs and transporting it in a small plastic baggie.

This is an excellent idea, but for even more potency and liquid form try a contact lens case.

Last month I flew to an out of state family function and wanted to wear some very special and sentimental cologne I own, however didn’t want to risk the bottle getting heisted by the TSA. (Even being under three ounces.)  I sprayed a small amount into one of my extra lens cases – then dabbed it on when getting dressed the next morning.

I have no idea if this has been thought of or done before – but I think it works great.  If you’re worried about dropping your actual contacts in the perfume I suggest these (hideous but great for kids) sport cases by AC Lens.
