What do both halves cost together? ₹1,055 for the 3 x 3ml trio plus Adaa at ₹379 is ₹1,434 for four bottles on one order, with Adaa at its own full price because it is outside the trio. In 6ml it is ₹1,859 plus Adaa at ₹669, and in 12ml ₹3,189 plus Adaa at ₹1,149. The trio price covers the three bottles inside the box and nothing else.
Is three too many for somebody who has only ever owned one? SOSA publishes nothing about how any person takes to a new format, so nobody can answer that about him. What is published is the figure that makes a first trial real: a 3ml is roughly 60 wears at one dab, so each bottle is enough to wear properly rather than sample once, and the smallest tier is the lowest-commitment way to put three directions in front of anyone.

He Wears One Perfume Everywhere. Can Three Attars Introduce the Idea of More?
Somebody who wears one bottle to the office, to a wedding and on holiday has usually not compared and rejected the alternatives. They found something acceptable, and the question of whether a different situation wants a different scent simply never came up. That makes this a gift with a job: not to replace the bottle, but to raise the idea that there could be more than one. An attar set does that well, and there is one thing to be honest about before you order. The published trio is three evening compositions. It introduces the idea and covers the evening half. The daytime bottle is Adaa at ₹379, and it sits outside the box.
The set most of these questions arrive at, and the one fact most of them get wrong: it is a fixed combination. The SOSA Attar Trio is Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani - ₹1,055 in 3 x 3ml, ₹1,859 in 3 x 6ml and ₹3,189 in 3 x 12ml, against ₹1,173, ₹2,063 and ₹3,543 bought singly. All three bottles come in the size you pick, Adaa is not in it, and nobody chooses the three. Published wear is 6 to 8 hours per bottle.
Quick answers — read this first
Can an attar trio introduce the idea of different fragrances for different situations? It introduces the idea and it covers one half of it. The SOSA Attar Trio is ₹1,055 for three 3ml bottles - Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani - and SOSA publishes all three as evening compositions. The daytime attar is Adaa from ₹379, and it is not in the box. Three bottles in hand is still the moment the one-bottle habit gets questioned.What do both halves cost together? ₹1,055 for the 3 x 3ml trio plus Adaa at ₹379 is ₹1,434 for four bottles on one order, with Adaa at its own full price because it is outside the trio. In 6ml it is ₹1,859 plus Adaa at ₹669, and in 12ml ₹3,189 plus Adaa at ₹1,149. The trio price covers the three bottles inside the box and nothing else.
Is three too many for somebody who has only ever owned one? SOSA publishes nothing about how any person takes to a new format, so nobody can answer that about him.

The short answer
Short answer: The published SOSA Attar Trio is three evening compositions - Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani - at Rs 1,055 in 3 x 3ml, so it introduces the idea of different scents for different situations and covers the evening half. Adaa at Rs 379 is the daytime attar and sits outside the box. Both together in 3ml come to Rs 1,434 on one order.
The pick: The 3 x 3ml trio at ₹1,055 to raise the idea, or the trio plus Adaa at ₹379 for ₹1,434 when you want the daytime half on the same order.
Why: Three bottles in one box is what makes the one-bottle habit visible. Sixty wears in a 3ml is what makes each of them a real trial rather than a sample.
In this guide
Knowing somebody's signature fragrance is more information than most gift buyers have, and it still does not answer the question, because the next bottle is not the same bottle. What three small attars buy you is evidence rather than a guess - three things to put on skin over a week. What the published trio is not is a set you assemble: it is one fixed combination of Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani, in whichever single size you choose. And no page can tell you what anybody will make of any of them.

Straight answer
My husband owns one perfume and wears it to work, weddings, dinners and holidays because he has never thought about having different fragrances for different situations - could an attar trio introduce that idea?
Yes for the idea, and half of it in practice - so price both routes before you order. Three bottles arriving in one box is itself the argument: it makes the one-bottle habit visible in a way no amount of explaining does. The SOSA Attar Trio is one fixed combination - Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani, all three bottles in the single size you select - at ₹1,055 in 3 x 3ml, ₹1,859 in 3 x 6ml and ₹3,189 in 3 x 12ml, against ₹1,173, ₹2,063 and ₹3,543 bought singly, a saving of ₹118, ₹204 and ₹354. Now the honest part. SOSA publishes all three of those as evening compositions - depth, warmth and floral - and its own trio page says the box is built for evenings and points anybody wanting a daytime or office attar at Adaa. Adaa is ₹379 in 3ml, ₹669 in 6ml and ₹1,149 in 12ml, it is the lightest of the four, and it is not inside the trio - a separate line on the order at its own price. So the two routes are: ₹1,055 for three evening directions, or ₹1,434 for those three plus the daytime bottle, four bottles on one order in 3ml. The figure that makes either one a real trial rather than a sample is published: a 3ml is roughly 60 wears at one dab, with 6 to 8 hours of wear per bottle, longer on warm or oily skin, and the drydown developing after the first thirty minutes. What he makes of any of it is not something SOSA publishes. A portion of every SOSA order supports girl-child education through Nanhi Kali.
Three bottles in one box raise the idea. They cover the evening half of it - the daytime attar is Adaa, and it is bought separately.
The quick version: the 3 x 3ml trio at ₹1,055 for three evening directions at roughly 60 wears each, plus Adaa at ₹379 as a second line when you want the daytime half too - ₹1,434 for four bottles on one order. The box is Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani every time, and Adaa is never inside it.

Three things to settle before you buy somebody their second fragrance
The gift has an unusual job here: it is arguing for a habit rather than for a scent. That changes what honest looks like, because the box only covers part of the habit it is introducing. Three things settle it.
01
What a first trial costs
Sixty wears is what makes a second fragrance a real one
The obstacle for somebody who has worn one bottle for years is not taste, it is that they have never had a second thing in the house long enough to find out. A sample solves nothing: one wearing tells you what something smells like on paper and almost nothing about living with it. SOSA publishes a 3ml at roughly 60 wears at one dab, which is the figure that changes the argument - enough to wear something to work on an ordinary Tuesday, notice what it does after the first thirty minutes, and arrive at an actual view. Published wear is 6 to 8 hours per bottle, longer on warm or oily skin. Three of those at ₹1,055 is the cheapest honest way to test a habit rather than assert one.
Tip: One wearing is a sample. Sixty is enough to find out what living with it is like.
02
What the box covers
Three evening compositions, and the daytime bottle is outside it
The SOSA Attar Trio is Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani, all three bottles in the single size you select, and SOSA publishes all three as evening compositions: warm rose and saffron, white royal oud, and night-jasmine floral with a base. Its own page states the box is for evenings and sends anybody wanting a daytime or office attar to Adaa instead. So as an introduction to the idea of different scents for different situations, the trio makes the argument and then covers one side of it. Adaa - bergamot, green cardamom, neroli, jasmine sambac, magnolia, white musk, vetiver and cedarwood - is the lightest of the four and is bought separately from ₹379. Nobody chooses the three, and a different three or three different sizes means buying the bottles individually and the trio price no longer applies.
03
Both routes, priced
The evening half alone, or four bottles on one order
This is the arithmetic that decides it, and all of it comes off the published prices. Route one: the trio alone. ₹1,055 in 3 x 3ml, ₹1,859 in 3 x 6ml or ₹3,189 in 3 x 12ml - three evening directions and no daytime bottle. Route two: the trio plus Adaa as a second line. In 3ml that is ₹1,055 plus Adaa at ₹379, which is ₹1,434 for four bottles; in 6ml, ₹1,859 plus Adaa at ₹669; in 12ml, ₹3,189 plus Adaa at ₹1,149. Adaa is charged at full price in every case because it is not in the box and the trio price covers only the three bottles inside it. Route two is the one that actually demonstrates the idea in the question, and it is worth saying so rather than selling the box on its own.
Tip: The box makes the argument. The box plus Adaa is the argument with both halves in it.
The bottle the trio does not contain
Adaa, and why it matters to half these questions
SOSA publishes four attars. Three of them are in the trio and one is not. Adaa - bergamot, green cardamom, neroli, jasmine sambac and white musk - is published as the lightest of the four and a daytime attar, and it is sold on its own at ₹379 in 3ml, ₹669 in 6ml and ₹1,149 in 12ml. That matters because the trio page itself lists a reason not to buy the trio: it is an evening set of depth, warmth and floral, and somebody who wears bright, light, citrus-led fragrance is not the buyer for it. If what you know about their taste is that it is fresh, the honest route is Adaa rather than the box - and if you want Adaa alongside two others, that is three individual bottles at full price, because the trio cannot be recomposed.

Work it out in this order
How to introduce a second fragrance without overbuying
- Decide whether you are raising the idea or furnishing the whole habit.
- Know the split: the trio is three evening bottles; Adaa is the daytime one.
- Price both routes. Trio at Rs 1,055, or trio plus Adaa at Rs 1,434 in 3ml.
- Stay in 3ml at this stage. Roughly 60 wears is enough to reach a verdict.
The SOSA principle
A fragrance wardrobe is not a thing you explain to somebody. It is a thing they notice about three weeks after there is more than one bottle in the house.
Which is why the number of bottles matters more than the size of any one of them at this stage.
The evening half, the daytime bottle, and what each route costs
The three evening compositions, then the one that is not among them. Ameeri is warm and festive - Taif rose and Persian saffron over Indian sandalwood, with a soft oudh, amber and white musk. Nawaab is published as the deepest of the four: white royal oud, Mysore sandalwood and aged tobacco leaf, with agarwood, leather, vetiver and amber behind. Mastani is floral depth - night-blooming jasmine and Damask rose over Mysore sandalwood and oudh, with vanilla and tonka in the base. Then Adaa, which SOSA publishes as the daytime and office attar and as the lightest of the four: bergamot, green cardamom, neroli, jasmine sambac, magnolia, white musk, vetiver and cedarwood, from ₹379. Four compositions, three of them in the box and one outside it - and that division is the whole of what a first fragrance wardrobe would look like here.
The SOSA gift edit
Four routes into a second fragrance, and what each one leaves out
| The option | Who it suits, and where it fails |
|---|---|
| The SOSA Attar Trio, 3 x 3ml at ₹1,055 | Three evening directions in one gift-ready box at roughly 60 wears each. It raises the idea properly and covers evenings only - nobody chooses the three, and there is no daytime bottle among them. |
| The trio plus Adaa, ₹1,055 and ₹379, four bottles for ₹1,434 | The version that actually demonstrates the idea in the question: evenings and daytime on one order. Adaa is charged at full price because it is outside the box, so this route costs more per bottle than the trio does. |
| Adaa on its own, ₹379 in 3ml or ₹1,149 in 12ml | Start with the daytime half instead - the situation he is in five days a week. It is one bottle and one direction, so it adds a second fragrance without making the wider argument that three bottles make. |
| A second full-size bottle of something unfamiliar | The highest-variance route. If it lands it is the best thing on this list, and if it does not it is a large object with nowhere to go. It also has to win against a bottle he has worn for years, which a 3ml never has to do. |
What the three sizes actually buy you
3ml, 6ml or 12ml - and roughly sixty wears in the smallest
All three trio tiers contain the same three attars; the only variable is how much of each. ₹1,055 buys 3 x 3ml, and the published figure for a 3ml is roughly 60 wears at one dab - which is the number that makes a discovery gift a real one rather than a set of samples, because it is enough to wear a scent on an ordinary Tuesday and not just sniff it in a shop. ₹1,859 buys 3 x 6ml and ₹3,189 buys 3 x 12ml, the largest published size of each. Against the same bottles bought singly those are savings of ₹118, ₹204 and ₹354. The trio ships with all three bottles in the same size - there is no mixed-size set, and SOSA states that mixing sizes means buying the three individually and losing the trio price.

The format, which is most of what is new for somebody who has only used a spray. An attar is a concentrated oil with a built-in dab applicator: dab on pulse points, do not rub. Attar oils can stain light silks, so they go on skin rather than straight onto fabric - worth passing on with the gift. All four are alcohol-free and DPG-free, carried on Indian sandalwood oil and jojoba, IFRA-compliant, skin-safe, heat-stable to 45 degrees C, and hand-blended in small batches in Pune by Sonal Sahani, ISIPCA Versailles trained. Published wear is 6 to 8 hours per bottle, longer on warm or oily skin, the drydown develops after the first thirty minutes, and a 3ml is roughly 60 wears at one dab. The trio's three bottles come in a single gift-ready box.
₹1,055 in 3 x 3ml, ₹1,859 in 3 x 6ml, ₹3,189 in 3 x 12ml. Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani - the same three every time, all in the size you pick, in one gift-ready box.
from ₹1,055
₹379, ₹669 and ₹1,149. Bergamot, green cardamom, neroli, jasmine sambac, white musk. The lightest of the four and the one the trio does not contain - the honest answer whenever the question is a fresh or daytime one.
from ₹379
₹1,149 to ₹1,199 for a single 12ml. The alternative to the trio when you already know the direction and the useful thing is depth in one bottle rather than breadth across three.
from ₹1,149
One message, one honest recommendation
Tell SOSA what they already wear, anything they have said they dislike, whether this is a first attar or an addition, and what you want to spend - and you will be told which size and which bottles, including the times the honest answer is Adaa on its own from ₹379 rather than the trio.
Nobody adopts a second fragrance because it was explained to them. They adopt it because there was a second bottle in the house on a morning they were in a different mood about clothes.
— Sonal Sahani, SOSA
The SOSA gifting range
Two questions settle almost every attar gift where you already know what they wear, and the first one is not price. Are you buying breadth or depth? Breadth means three bottles to put on skin over a week, which is what the published trio is for; depth means one 12ml in a direction you are already confident about. Then: does what you know about their taste sit inside what the trio actually contains? The trio is Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani - warm rose and saffron, white royal oud, and night-jasmine with Damask rose. It has no light, fresh or citrus-led bottle in it, because Adaa is the lightest of the four and is sold separately from ₹379. Price follows those two answers rather than leading them.
The SOSA range, sorted by how much it asks of the person receiving it
Start from what the gift demands, not from what it costs
| Product | What it is | What it is for | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| SOSA Attar Trio - 3 x 3ml | Three to smell, not one to guess | ₹1,055 for Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani in 3ml each, against ₹1,173 bought singly. The published figure for a 3ml is roughly 60 wears at one dab - enough to actually live with a scent rather than sniff it | ₹1,055 |
| SOSA Attar Trio - 3 x 6ml | The middle size | ₹1,859 against ₹2,063 bought singly. The same three attars; the trio ships with all three bottles in the same size | ₹1,859 |
| SOSA Attar Trio - 3 x 12ml | Three full bottles | ₹3,189 against ₹3,543 bought singly. The largest published size of each, in one gift-ready box | ₹3,189 |
| Adaa - 3ml, 6ml, 12ml | The lightest in the range | ₹379, ₹669 and ₹1,149. Bergamot, green cardamom, neroli, jasmine sambac and white musk. Adaa is not in the trio - SOSA publishes it as the daytime attar and sells it separately | from ₹379 |
| Ameeri - 3ml, 6ml, 12ml | Warm, rose and saffron led | ₹385, ₹679 and ₹1,165. Taif rose, Indian sandalwood, Persian saffron, a measured oudh and amber | from ₹385 |
| Mastani - 3ml, 6ml, 12ml | Floral depth | ₹389, ₹685 and ₹1,179. Night-blooming jasmine and Damask rose over sandalwood, oudh, vanilla and tonka | from ₹389 |
| Nawaab - 3ml, 6ml, 12ml | The deepest in the range | ₹399, ₹699 and ₹1,199. White royal oud led, with Mysore sandalwood and aged tobacco leaf. SOSA publishes this as the deepest of the four | from ₹399 |
| SOSA solid body perfumes - 15g | Worn, and smaller still | ₹459 to ₹549. The other worn format in the range. No wear-time figure is published for these, so this page does not give one | from ₹459 |
| SOSA reed diffusers | A room, not a person | From ₹749 in 50ml. Listed here only to rule it out: a reed diffuser scents a room and an attar is worn. They are not substitutes, and a fragrance-taste question is not answered by a bottle that sits on a shelf | from ₹749 |
The single most useful fact on this page: the published Attar Trio is one fixed combination. It is Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani, every time, and all three bottles ship in the size you select. Adaa cannot be substituted into it, and there is no mixed-size trio - SOSA's own page says that if you want a different three, or three different sizes, you buy the bottles individually and the trio discount does not apply. Published across all five pages: 6 to 8 hours of wear per bottle, longer on warm or oily skin, a built-in dab applicator (dab on pulse points, do not rub), a carrier of Indian sandalwood oil and jojoba, and alcohol-free, DPG-free, IFRA-compliant formulations hand-blended in small batches in Pune. A 3ml is published at roughly 60 wears at one dab. Attar oils can stain light silks, so they go on skin rather than on fabric. Prices above are the published selling prices; bulk orders are welcome and custom label or logo on product is available, with quantities settled on WhatsApp at +91 96192 18531. SOSA is an Indian fragrance house based in Pune, sending orders across India. A portion of every order supports girl-child education through Nanhi Kali.
The honest spec sheet
What the SOSA attar pages publish, and what they do not
Everything below is on the live product pages. Anything not on this list is not something a page like this should state.
- The four attars and their prices - Adaa, bergamot, green cardamom, neroli, jasmine sambac and white musk, ₹379 / ₹669 / ₹1,149; Ameeri, Taif rose, Indian sandalwood, Persian saffron, soft oudh and amber, ₹385 / ₹679 / ₹1,165; Mastani, night-blooming jasmine, Damask rose, Mysore sandalwood, oudh, vanilla and tonka, ₹389 / ₹685 / ₹1,179; Nawaab, white royal oud, Mysore sandalwood and aged tobacco leaf, ₹399 / ₹699 / ₹1,199. In 3ml, 6ml and 12ml. Those four are the entire attar range.
- The trio - Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani at ₹1,055, ₹1,859 and ₹3,189 for 3 x 3ml, 3 x 6ml and 3 x 12ml, against ₹1,173, ₹2,063 and ₹3,543 bought singly. It is one fixed combination, all three bottles in the same size, and Adaa is not in it. A different three, or mixed sizes, means buying individually at full price.
- Wear - 6 to 8 hours on skin per bottle, longer on warm or oily skin, with the drydown developing after the first 30 minutes. A 3ml is published at roughly 60 wears at one dab. That is the only quantity figure SOSA gives for an attar.
- The format - a concentrated oil attar with a built-in dab applicator; dab on pulse points and do not rub. Carrier of Indian sandalwood oil and jojoba. Alcohol-free, DPG-free, IFRA-compliant, skin-safe, heat-stable to 45 degrees C, hand-blended in small batches in Pune by Sonal Sahani, ISIPCA Versailles trained. Attar oils can stain light silks, so they go on skin rather than fabric.
- Relative depth, in SOSA's own words - Adaa is published as the lightest of the four and Nawaab as the deepest, with Ameeri and Mastani between them. That ordering is published; no number from any product page is quoted here, and no claim is made about how any of them behaves on a particular person.
- Not published, and therefore never stated here: any sillage, projection or room-distance figure; any shelf life, expiry, concentration or oil percentage; any seasonal or skin-chemistry claim beyond "longer on warm or oily skin"; any bulk rate, minimum quantity, price break or lead time; any presentation beyond the trio's single gift-ready box and a custom label or logo on product; and anything whatsoever about what a recipient will like or how a gift will be received. Those go to WhatsApp +91 96192 18531.
Know what they wear and not what to buy next? Tell SOSA on WhatsApp at +91 96192 18531 four things: the fragrance they already own and wear, anything they have said they dislike, whether this is a first attar or an addition to a collection, and roughly what you want to spend. You will get one straight answer rather than a catalogue - including the cases where the honest answer is a single 3ml at ₹379 to ₹399 rather than the trio, or Adaa on its own because the trio is published as an evening set. What is not on this page, because SOSA does not publish it: any sillage, projection or room-distance figure; any shelf life, expiry or concentration; any claim about how an attar behaves on a particular person; any bulk rate, minimum quantity or lead time; and anything at all about what a recipient will think. What is: 6 to 8 hours of wear per bottle, longer on warm or oily skin, a drydown that develops after the first 30 minutes, roughly 60 wears in a 3ml at one dab, a built-in dab applicator, a carrier of Indian sandalwood oil and jojoba, and alcohol-free, DPG-free, IFRA-compliant formulations made in India. On presentation: the trio's three bottles ship in a single gift-ready box, which is published; beyond that, custom label or logo on product is the one branding option, and there is no custom box, printed sleeve or insert card. Where SOSA is: an Indian fragrance house based in Pune, sending orders across India, with no shop, stockist, counter or warehouse in any other city.

A note from Sonal
The message we get most often on WhatsApp is not what should I buy. It is a more specific and more interesting problem: I know exactly what she wears. I have known for years. I just cannot buy it again. That person is not short of information. They are short of a next step, which is a different thing entirely, and almost nothing written about fragrance gifting treats it as different.
Here is the part I would want them to hold on to. Knowing somebody's signature tells you where they started, not where they would go. A person who has worn one bottle for a decade has usually not rejected the alternatives - they have never had three of them on their own skin at the same time. So the useful gift is not a better guess at one bottle. It is evidence: several things to wear, on separate days, and the chance to notice which one they reach for without being asked to be polite about it.
The part I will be blunt about, because our own product page is blunt about it: the trio is one fixed set. Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani, all three in whichever size you choose. It is not assembled around a person's taste, Adaa is not in it, and if somebody wears bright citrus and nothing else, that box is the wrong box - Adaa on its own is the honest answer, and it costs a great deal less. I would rather lose the larger sale than have three bottles sit unopened on somebody's dressing table.
And the thing nobody selling fragrance should pretend to know: I cannot tell you what they will like. I can tell you what is in each bottle, that one dab carries six to eight hours, that a 3ml is roughly sixty wears, and that all four are alcohol-free and blended here in Pune. What happens when a particular person puts a particular attar on a particular wrist is genuinely theirs to find out - and giving them three ways to find it out is, I think, the whole point.
Frequently asked questions
Is Adaa one of the three attars in the box?
No. The trio is one fixed combination of Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani, with all three bottles in the single size you select. Adaa is the fourth attar and is bought on its own from Rs 379. SOSA's own trio page explains why: Adaa is the daytime and office attar, and the other three are the evening signatures.
What do the evening and daytime halves cost together?
In 3ml, the trio is Rs 1,055 and Adaa is Rs 379, so four bottles come to Rs 1,434 on one order. In 6ml it is Rs 1,859 plus Adaa at Rs 669; in 12ml, Rs 3,189 plus Adaa at Rs 1,149. Adaa is charged at its own full price in every case, because the trio price covers only the three bottles inside the box.
Is three bottles too many for somebody who has only ever owned one?
SOSA publishes nothing about how any individual takes to a new format, so that cannot be answered here. What can be said is that a 3ml is published at roughly 60 wears at one dab, so each bottle is a real trial rather than a sample, and the smallest tier is the lowest-commitment way to put three directions in somebody's hands.
How is an attar worn if he has only used a spray before?
It has a built-in dab applicator. Dab on pulse points and do not rub. Published wear is 6 to 8 hours per bottle, longer on warm or oily skin, and the drydown develops after the first thirty minutes, so the first impression is not the whole scent. Attar oils can stain light silks, so it goes on skin rather than onto fabric.
Does adding Adaa change the trio price?
No. Adaa goes on the order as a separate line at its own price, from Rs 379, and the trio price applies only to the three bottles in the box. The same holds in reverse: a different three, or three bottles in different sizes, means buying them individually and the trio price no longer applies.
Take the next step
Decide whether you are buying breadth or depth, then stop deliberating
The 3 x 3ml trio at ₹1,055 when the point is to put three different things on their skin and find out - roughly 60 wears in each bottle, so it is a real trial rather than a sample. The 3 x 6ml at ₹1,859 or 3 x 12ml at ₹3,189 when you already expect all three to be worn. A single 12ml at ₹1,149 to ₹1,199 when you know the direction and breadth would be wasted. And Adaa on its own from ₹379 when what you know about their taste is that it is light and fresh, because the trio is published as an evening set. Tell SOSA what they already wear on WhatsApp.
Not sure which one suits the person you are buying for? Send SOSA their age, whether they drive, whether they like their home scented and your budget on WhatsApp, and you will get an honest answer - including when the cheaper product is the better gift.

About this guide: Written by Sonal Sahani, ISIPCA Versailles-trained founder and perfumer at SOSA Home & Body. Product recommendations reflect the SOSA range; the reasoning about how to buy fragrance for somebody whose taste you partly know applies to any brand.Specifications verified from the live SOSA product pages, September 2026: SOSA publishes four attars and one pack of three, and that is the entire attar range. Adaa - bergamot, green cardamom, neroli, jasmine sambac, magnolia, white musk, vetiver and cedarwood - is ₹379 in 3ml, ₹669 in 6ml and ₹1,149 in 12ml. Ameeri - Taif rose, Indian sandalwood, Persian saffron, soft oudh, amber and white musk - is ₹385, ₹679 and ₹1,165. Mastani - night-blooming jasmine, Damask rose, Mysore sandalwood, oudh, vanilla and tonka - is ₹389, ₹685 and ₹1,179. Nawaab - white royal oud, Mysore sandalwood and aged tobacco leaf - is ₹399, ₹699 and ₹1,199. The SOSA Attar Trio is one fixed combination - Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani - at ₹1,055 for 3 x 3ml, ₹1,859 for 3 x 6ml and ₹3,189 for 3 x 12ml, against ₹1,173, ₹2,063 and ₹3,543 for the same bottles bought singly. All three bottles in a trio ship in the same size and in a single gift-ready box. Adaa is not in the trio; SOSA publishes it as the daytime attar, sold separately, and the trio page states that a different combination or mixed sizes means buying individually without the trio price. Published across all five pages: 6 to 8 hours of wear per bottle, longer on warm or oily skin; a drydown that develops after the first 30 minutes; roughly 60 wears in a 3ml at one dab; a built-in dab applicator, dabbed on pulse points rather than rubbed; a carrier of Indian sandalwood oil and jojoba; alcohol-free, DPG-free, IFRA-compliant and skin-safe; heat-stable to 45 degrees C; hand-blended in small batches in Pune; country of origin India. Attar oils can stain light silks and are applied to skin rather than fabric. For comparison: SOSA solid body perfumes are ₹459 to ₹549 in 15g and are also worn, though no wear-time figure is published for them; SOSA reed diffusers from ₹749 scent a room rather than a person and are not an alternative to an attar. What is not published, and is therefore not stated here: any sillage, projection or room-distance figure; any shelf life, expiry, concentration or oil percentage; any seasonal or skin-chemistry claim beyond "longer on warm or oily skin"; any bulk rate, minimum quantity, price break or lead time; and any presentation beyond the trio's single gift-ready box and a custom label or logo on product. Limits of this guide: no claim is made anywhere on this page about mood, stress, calm, sleep, headaches, sensitivity or wellbeing, in either direction. No claim is made about what any recipient will like. Nothing here states or implies that a named person will enjoy, prefer, adopt or be impressed by any fragrance, that a scent will suit them or become their signature, or that a gift will be well received; SOSA publishes no information of that kind and none is invented here. No third-party perfume, perfume house or brand is named, and no resemblance, alternative or dupe claim is made about any SOSA product. No rating, review count, strength score or customer name from any product page is cited, and no competitor or category of competing product is characterised. No statement is made about what any community, religion or family wears or gives, and no etiquette rule is presented as fact. No fragrance is assigned to a gender; SOSA publishes all four attars as wearable by anyone. Bulk orders are welcome and custom label or logo on product is available; that is the only branding option, and quantities are settled on WhatsApp. SOSA Home & Body is an Indian fragrance house based in Pune, Maharashtra, sending orders across India, with no shop, showroom, stockist, counter or warehouse in any other city.
