A fluid dispensing device comprising: - a housing, the housing comprising an orifice and wherein the housing is configured to accommodate at least a portion of a spray delivery device comprising an outlet through which the fluid stored in the spray delivery device can be discharged, the fluid dispensing device further comprising: - a protective cap defining an interior space configured to accommodate the outlet of the spray delivery device and comprising at least a cap portion, wherein the protective cap is configured for fitting to the housing at least in a closing position relative to the housing, in which the cap portion covers the orifice, - a mechanical biasing member reversibly transferable between a pre-loaded state and an unloaded state and configured to store mechanical energy in the pre-loaded state effective to produce a spray discharge of the spray delivery device, - a releasable interlock configured to retain the biasing member in the pre-loaded state, - a manually actuatable trigger operationally engaged with the interlock and configured to release the interlock when actuated, wherein the protective cap or at least a portion thereof is configured or operable to actuate the trigger and wherein the manually actuatable trigger is arranged recessed compared to an outer surface of the housing or is located in a recess of the housing, - a mechanical coupler engaged with the mechanical biasing member and displaceable relative to the housing into a preload position for transferring the biasing member into the pre-loaded state and characterized in that - the protective cap is operably engageable with the mechanical coupler and wherein the protective cap is operable to displace the mechanical coupler into the preload position when approaching the closing position relative to the housing. - a housing, the housing comprising an orifice and wherein the housing is configured to accommodate at least a portion of a spray delivery device comprising an outlet through which the fluid stored in the spray delivery device can be discharged, the fluid dispensing device further comprising: - a protective cap defining an interior space configured to accommodate the outlet of the spray delivery device and comprising at least a cap portion, wherein the protective cap is configured for fitting to the housing at least in a closing position relative to the housing, in which the cap portion covers the orifice, -
