YOU! You guys will know.
I'm fairly confident in stating that, at the core of my readership, reside some people who are very crafty/ingenious or health/beauty savvy or both. Here's my dilemma, and feel free to pipe up with a proposed solution:
Being the dapper bon vivant that I am, I generally swan about wearing a very light dose of a manly fragrance. However, these days I have only found my manly fragrance of choice (Polo Blue) in the abominable spray bottle configuration. What I used to do in happier times was decant a fluid ounce of my manly fragrance of choice (it used to be Monogram, but that was discontinued) into a small sterling flask. Thence I would dispense said manly fragrance and I would be ready to lock horns with a world axle deep in entropy and barbarity.
But there is no way of spraying the fragrance into the flask without unacceptable loss, and spraying the fragrance directly upon my person is absolutely out of the question. (So don't go there. In fact, resist the temptation to delve into the matter at all.) The question then is...how do I transfer the fragrance from the spray bottle to the flask with no loss?
Discuss.

Perhaps you need to reduce your expectations as I don't see an alternative to decanting.

Do you have a glass cutter? Can you cut around the neck of the spray bottle, tap it off, then POUR it into the funnel and thus into the flask?
OR, depending on the configuration of the spray mechanism dealie, you can pry that up out of the bottle and then use a pipette sort of thingie. Or an eyedropper. Or whatev.
(Sharp heavy knife. Be careful.)
Also, how is the spray bit stuck on? If it has the metal around the edges you can peel those up (church key, but gently) and then pour.
and get a grip, man!
I am assuming you have called or emailed and inquired about a different container...
I think you need to find a new perfume.
And um...
unscrew the spray bit...
Or pull the spray bit off, then jam the end of a spoon or knife or chisel into the top bit and then just tip it out.
I mean, seriously, what's on the agenda for next week? Every time you cut a slice of bread it produces crumbs, discuss?
