In one embodiment there is provided a closed non-refillable dispenser having a bottle configured to hold a liquid with a neck surrounding an opening for access to the liquid, and having a pump assembly fitted to the neck to manually pump liquid out of the bottle. The dispenser further having a closure cap fitted over the neck of the bottle and having a central closure opening to receive the pump assembly and a collar seated entirely over the closure cap. The collar and closure cap have corresponding engaging means configured to tighten the closure cap onto the neck when the collar is rotated clockwise and the collar being further configured to not engage the closure cap when the collar is rotated counter-clockwise, such that the closure cap is non-removably affixed to the bottle, thereby preventing the bottle from being refillable.
