A mixed employee group doesn't need a men's attar and a women's attar. It needs one honest axis to choose along - and SOSA's range was never built around gender in the first place.
Quick answers — read this first
Does SOSA sell attars specifically for men or for women? No. SOSA's attars are not sold or marketed as gendered products. The useful way to think about them for a mixed corporate list is assertive versus restrained, not men versus women - SOSA Adaa (bergamot and cardamom, Rs 379) and SOSA Ameeri (rose and sandalwood, Rs 385) are the more restrained, easier options across a mixed group, and SOSA Nawaab (oud and saffron, Rs 399) is the most assertive, regardless of who wears it.
What is the best unisex attar for a corporate Diwali gift? SOSA Adaa, bergamot, cardamom and jasmine sambac, is the easiest across a mixed employee group because it is the lightest and most restrained of SOSA's four attars. SOSA Ameeri, Taif rose and Indian sandalwood, is a similarly easy, slightly warmer alternative. Neither is marketed toward one gender, and both work well as a single unisex gift for a large group.
Should a company assign different attars to male and female employees? No - that framing isn't useful and isn't how SOSA's attars are positioned. The fragrance families vary by how assertive or restrained they are, not by who they suit based on gender. A single unisex pick like Adaa, or a small choice set across the assertiveness range, serves a mixed group better than assigning fragrances by gender.
The short answer
Short answer: SOSA's attars are not sold as gendered products, so unisex gifting is simply choosing well for a mixed group. The right axis is assertive vs restrained: SOSA Adaa and Ameeri (Rs 379 to Rs 385) are the easiest across a mixed group, and SOSA Nawaab (Rs 399) is the most assertive, regardless of who wears it.
Fragrance families are not "for women" or "for men" here. They're light or bold, and that's the only distinction worth making for a mixed corporate list.
What is a good unisex attar gift for a mixed corporate Diwali gifting list?
Start with a fact worth stating plainly: SOSA's attars are not sold or marketed as gendered products. There is no "attar for him" and "attar for her" split in the range - every attar is positioned the same way for every wearer, and that makes the whole "unisex gift" question simpler than it first appears, because it was never really a men-versus-women question to begin with. The axis that actually matters, for a mixed corporate list or for any list, is assertive versus restrained. SOSA Adaa (bergamot, cardamom and jasmine sambac, ₹379 for 3ML) is the lightest and most restrained attar SOSA makes - dry, citrus-forward, easy to wear regardless of who's wearing it, which is exactly why it's the easiest pick across a large, mixed group. SOSA Ameeri (Taif rose and Indian sandalwood, ₹385) sits close beside it - warmer, but still restrained rather than a bold statement, and just as workable across a mixed employee group. At the other end, SOSA Nawaab (white oud and saffron, ₹399) is the most assertive attar in the range, and that's true regardless of who wears it - it isn't "a men's fragrance that's also assertive", it's simply the boldest scent SOSA makes, worn by whoever chooses it. What this means for a mixed corporate gifting list is that you don't need to sort your employee list by gender and pick two different fragrances - you need to sort by group size and familiarity, exactly as you would for any list, and land on Adaa or Ameeri for a large mixed group, reserving Nawaab for a senior or known tier. It's worth being explicit here about what this page will not do: it will not assign fragrance families by gender anywhere, because framing florals as "for women" or oud as "for men" is both inaccurate to how these fragrances actually wear and an unhelpful way to think about corporate gifting at scale. See the full, ungendered range on the attar roll-on collection, and ask for a bulk Diwali gifting plan if you'd like help choosing across a mixed list.
SOSA's attars are not gendered products. The axis that matters is assertive vs restrained: Adaa and Ameeri are the easiest picks across a mixed group, and Nawaab is the most assertive regardless of who wears it.
For a mixed employee group, SOSA Adaa - bergamot, cardamom and jasmine sambac, ₹379 - is the easiest unisex pick. It's light and restrained by character, not by being aimed at one gender.
Bergamot, cardamom and jasmine sambac, alcohol-free roll-on oil. Light, dry and restrained, worn equally well by anyone on a mixed employee list. 3ML at Rs 379.
Taif rose and Indian sandalwood, alcohol-free roll-on oil. Warmer than Adaa but still restrained rather than assertive, and just as workable across a mixed list. 3ML at Rs 385.
White oud and saffron, alcohol-free roll-on oil, the boldest and most assertive attar SOSA makes - worn by whoever chooses it, not aimed at one gender. 3ML at Rs 399.
Bergamot, cardamom and jasmine sambac, alcohol-free roll-on oil with a built-in dab applicator. Light and restrained by character, not positioned toward one gender. 3ML Rs 379.
Why assertive vs restrained is the right axis, not men vs women
Two things decide a good unisex pick, and neither one is gender.
1
How assertive is the fragrance, not who it's "for"
The only axis that actually predicts how a mixed group will receive it
SOSA's attars vary along a real, useful axis - how light or bold the fragrance is - and that axis has nothing to do with gender. A light, dry attar like Adaa is easy to wear across a mixed group not because it's neutral in some marketed sense, but because it's genuinely restrained in character. A bold attar like Nawaab is a bigger, more noticeable choice for anyone who wears it, not specifically for men. Sorting by this axis, rather than by an assumed gender split, is what actually predicts how a mixed group will receive the gift.
Tip: sort your fragrance shortlist by assertive vs restrained, and ignore gender entirely - it isn't how these attars are built or positioned.
Adaa is restrained by character, and easy to wear across any mixed group as a result.
Same logic as any large mixed group - not a special unisex rule
This is the lowest-rejection-rate rule again, applied honestly
A mixed-gender employee list is, for gifting purposes, simply a mixed-preference group like any other. The same logic applies: the more restrained option wins across a large, unfamiliar group, and a bolder option is better reserved for a senior or known tier. There's no separate "unisex rule" needed here - once you drop the gender framing, it's the same lowest-rejection-rate thinking that applies to every corporate attar decision.
Ameeri sits alongside Adaa as an equally restrained, equally unisex option.
Don't assign fragrance families by gender - it's inaccurate and unhelpful
It's tempting to default to familiar shorthand - florals for women, oud for men - and it's worth resisting entirely. That framing doesn't reflect how these fragrances are built or worn, and it adds an unnecessary and inaccurate layer to a decision that's actually simple once you focus on assertiveness instead. A rich oud attar and a light floral one are each worn by whoever likes them; neither belongs to a gender.
Tip: never sort a gifting shortlist by gender - sort by how assertive each fragrance genuinely is.
Nawaab is the boldest attar in the range, worn by anyone who wants that intensity - not a "men's" fragrance.
The question was never men versus women. It was always assertive versus restrained - and once you see that, the unisex gifting problem mostly solves itself.
SOSA's attars were never split by gender. Neither should your shortlist be.
Equally easy across a mixed group: SOSA Ameeri, Taif rose and Indian sandalwood, restrained and warm, from ₹385.
SOSA's four attars sit on one honest axis, from restrained to assertive, and every one of them is worn by whoever chooses it. Adaa and Ameeri are the easiest unisex picks for a mixed group; Nawaab is the boldest, for anyone who wants it. All alcohol-free roll-on oil, made in India.
One clarifying note: nothing above is sorted by gender, because SOSA doesn't sort its attars that way either. Ask for a bulk Diwali gifting plan if you'd like help applying this to your own mixed list.

A note from Sonal
I'm occasionally asked which of our attars is "for the men on the team" and which is "for the women", and I always answer the same way: none of them are. We've never built or marketed our attars around gender, and I think that's the right call - fragrance doesn't actually work that way, and pretending it does makes corporate gifting harder, not easier.
The distinction that's genuinely useful is how assertive a fragrance is. Adaa and Ameeri are both restrained, easy-to-wear scents, worn just as well by anyone on a mixed team. Nawaab is bold, and that boldness belongs to whoever chooses to wear it, not to one gender or another.
Once you stop sorting by gender and start sorting by assertiveness, choosing for a mixed employee list is exactly the same problem as choosing for any large group - and the same rule applies. Everything is made in India, and a portion of every order supports girl-child education through Nanhi Kali.
Frequently asked questions
Does SOSA make separate attars for men and for women?
No. SOSA's attars are not sold or marketed as gendered products - every attar is positioned the same way regardless of who wears it. The useful distinction between them is how assertive or restrained each fragrance is, not gender.
What is a good unisex attar for a corporate Diwali gift?
SOSA Adaa (bergamot, cardamom and jasmine sambac, Rs 379) and SOSA Ameeri (Taif rose and Indian sandalwood, Rs 385) are the easiest picks across a mixed group, since both are restrained rather than assertive in character and are worn equally well by anyone.
Is SOSA Nawaab a men's fragrance?
No. Nawaab, white oud and saffron, is SOSA's most assertive and boldest attar, and it's worn by whoever chooses it, regardless of gender. It's a strong option for a senior or known tier, not a fragrance assigned to one gender.
Should I choose different attars for male and female employees?
No - that framing doesn't reflect how SOSA's attars are built or positioned. Choose instead by how assertive or restrained the fragrance is relative to your group's size and how well you know their taste, the same logic that applies to any corporate gifting list.
What's the difference between a restrained and an assertive attar?
A restrained attar, like SOSA Adaa or Ameeri, is lighter and easier to wear across a wide range of people, making it the safer choice for a large mixed group. An assertive attar, like SOSA Nawaab, is bolder and more distinctive, and suits a senior tier or a group you know well, regardless of who is wearing it.
