1. A fluid spray device comprising: a reservoir that contains fluid;a fixing ring mounted on the reservoir, wherein the fixing ring does not move with respect to the reservoir;a pump or a valve mounted on the reservoir by the fixing ring for selectively dispensing the fluid;a dispenser head comprising a dispenser orifice which dispenses fluid from the dispensing device; andan actuator device that is displaceable between a rest position and a dispensing position;the actuator device is configured to be on the dispenser head and co-operates directly with the fixing ring in order to actuate the pump or the valve; andthe actuator device is further configured to include at least one actuator element pivotally mounted on the dispenser head and at least one actuator portion that co-operates with the fixing ring by directly contacting the fixing ring,wherein the actuator device is displaced in a direction that is different from the direction in which the fluid is sprayed through the dispenser orifice. 2. A device according to claim 1, in which said dispenser head (40) includes a lateral skirt (41), said actuator device (50) being formed in said lateral skirt (41). 3. A device according to claim 2, in which the fixing ring (30) includes an oblique cam element (31) co-operating with the bottom end (50) of the lateral skirt (41) of the dispenser head (40), so that displacement of said skirt (41) transversely to the direction in which the fluid is sprayed is transformed by said oblique cam element (31) into displacement in the direction in which the fluid is sprayed. 4. A device according to claim 3, in which the cam element (31) is provided at the end of the actuating stroke of the dispenser head (40). 5. The fluid spray device of claim 2, wherein the at least one actuator portion directly contacts the fixing ring at an outer peripheral portion of the fixing ring. 6. The fluid spray device of claim 2, wherein the lateral skirt is integrally formed on the dispenser head, such that the dispenser orifice does not move with respect to the lateral skirt. 7. The fluid spray device of claim 2, wherein the lateral skirt surrounds the fixing ring. 8. A device according to claim 1, in which each actuator element (51) includes a presser element (54) on which the user exerts an actuation force, said presser element being connected to said actuator portion (52) of the actuator element (51) via a connection spacer. 9. A device according to claim 1, in which said actuator device (50) includes two actuator elements (51) that are diametrally opposite about said dispenser head (40). 10. A fluid spray device according to claim 1, wherein the actuator device is made in the form of one or more buttons co-operating with said fixing ring, said buttons being displaceable in a direction that is approximately perpendicular to the displacement direction of the actuator rod of the pump or of the valve member of the valve. 11. A device according to claim 1, in which said actuator device (50) includes an actuator element (51) pivotally mounted on said head (40), said actuator element (51) co-operating with an intermediate piece (58) connected firstly to said head (40), and secondly to said ring (30), said intermediate piece (58) being deformable so that said ring (30) can be displaced axially relative to said head (40) during actuation. 12. A device according to claim 1, in which said actuator device includes at least one actuator element slidably mounted to slide along the lateral skirt of the dispenser head. 13. A device according to claim 1, in which the actuator device (50) includes a precompression element, so that the pump or the valve (20) is actuated only when the precompression threshold is overcome by the user. 14. A device according to claim 1, in which the dispenser head (40) is a nasal dispenser head, which, during actuation of the pump or the valve (20), remains steady in position in the user's nostril. 15. The fluid spray device according to claim 1, wherein the actuator device movably engages the fixing ring during actuation so as to displace the fixing ring and the reservoir in an axial direction with respect to the dispenser head. 16. The fluid spray device of claim 1, wherein fixing ring comprises: a cylindrical portion for engaging the reservoir; anda lateral portion extending from the cylindrical portion in a direction that is transverse to the direction of displacement of the pump or valve;wherein the at least one actuator portion directly contacts the lateral portion of the fixing ring. 17. The fluid spray device of claim 1, wherein the fixing ring comprises a one-piece integral construction. 18.
