The perfume industry is slowly moving to respond to concerns about waste - perfumes tend to be in specially made bottles which are in cardboard boxes, and you buy bottle and box every time. Ok, you can recycle the card, but maybe not the bottle as it may have special finishes. But things are changing.
2019: Lancome: Idole perfume now comes in a bottle that can be refilled at the counter.
2019: The Body Shop will take back empty containers for recycling and are working on their Plastics for Change project.
