Wrap in Protective Materials If you haven't got the original box, or a box that fits your perfume, you should wrap the bottle in protective materials. Wrap each bottle in several layers of packing paper and bubble wrap, and secure this with tape. You should also seal the bottle, so the perfume doesn't spill.
