atomiser

Fine spray bottle

An atomiser is a device that converts liquid into a fine spray or mist.

Perfume atomisers deliver fragrance in a delicate cloud rather than drops.

The term applies to any sprayer using air pressure to break liquid into tiny particles: She spritzed the plant with an atomiser.

Also spelled atomizer.
