The invention relates to a nasal applicator (2) having a channel (3) which opens at: an opening (4) at a first end (5) of the applicator, which is intended to be inserted into a person's nose; and an opening (6) at a second end (7) of the applicator, which is provided with means (27, 28, 30) for securing same in an opening in the body of a nasal fluid aspiration device in a removable, sealed manner. The opening (6) at the second end is sealed by a non-porous element (8) which can deform elastically when a vacuum is created by a vacuum source in the body of the aspiration device and which is intended to form a nasal fluid container. The nasal applicator includes non-return means (9, 13) which prevent the nasal applicator from being emptied when a vacuum is no longer being applied to the deformable element. The elastically-deformable nasal applicator and the non-return means can deform when pressure is exerted on the nasal applicator so that the applicator and the container can be emptied.
