Is the SOSA trio put together to suit a particular person? No, and on this question that is the feature rather than the drawback. It is a fixed set, always Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani, with all three bottles in the single size you pick. Adaa, the lightest of the four attars, is not part of it and is sold on its own from ₹379. Any other three, or three in mixed sizes, means buying the bottles individually at full price.
How long does each bottle last, and what does the set cost? Published wear is 6 to 8 hours per bottle, longer on warm or oily skin, and a 3ml is published at roughly 60 wears at one dab. The set is ₹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 for the same bottles bought singly.

Somebody who has worn one scent for a decade is not short of options. They are flooded with them, which is a different problem and has the opposite solution. Adding choice to an overwhelmed decision makes it worse; every extra shortlist is another thing to be wrong about. What actually helps is a decision that has already been made for them at the level where the paralysis happens - not which of these hundreds, but which of these three, with the three settled by somebody else and no possibility of second-guessing the shortlist. That is a strange thing to say about a product, but it is the honest case for a set nobody gets to assemble.
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
Does a set of three fragrances make choosing easier for somebody who finds perfume overwhelming? It can, provided the set is fixed. The SOSA Attar Trio is one published combination - Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani - at ₹1,055 for three 3ml bottles. Nobody selects the three, which means there is no shortlist to agonise over and no alternative version of the box to wonder about. The only question left is which of three to wear on a given day.Is the SOSA trio put together to suit a particular person? No, and on this question that is the feature rather than the drawback. It is a fixed set, always Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani, with all three bottles in the single size you pick. Adaa, the lightest of the four attars, is not part of it and is sold on its own from ₹379. Any other three, or three in mixed sizes, means buying the bottles individually at full price.
How long does each bottle last, and what does the set cost? Published wear is 6 to 8 hours per bottle, longer on warm or oily skin, and a 3ml is published at roughly 60 wears at one dab. The set is ₹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 for the same bottles bought singly.
The short answer
Short answer: A fixed set helps here precisely because nobody chose it. The SOSA Attar Trio is always Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani, all three in one size, at Rs 1,055 in 3 x 3ml. There is no shortlist to second-guess and no alternative box. Roughly 60 wears in a 3ml means each of the three gets a real trial rather than a sniff.
The pick: The 3 x 3ml trio at ₹1,055 - a three-way comparison instead of an open field, with roughly 60 wears in each bottle to settle it.
Why: Choice paralysis is not solved by better options, it is solved by fewer of them. A set nobody assembles removes the shortlist decision entirely and leaves only the one that has to be made on skin.
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
Someone has worn one scent for years because choosing among hundreds of perfumes feels overwhelming - could a curated set reduce the decision into three manageable directions?
Not curated, no - and that is the part worth keeping. The SOSA Attar Trio is one fixed combination: Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani, with all three bottles in whichever single size you select. Nobody assembles it around a recipient, and Adaa is not in it. For most gifting questions that is a limitation. For this one it is the entire mechanism, because the decision that exhausts somebody is not which of three do I wear today - it is have I shortlisted the right things, and a set that was never shortlisted cannot be got wrong at that level. The set is ₹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. It holds Ameeri - Taif rose, Persian saffron, Indian sandalwood, soft oudh and amber; Nawaab - white royal oud, Mysore sandalwood and aged tobacco leaf, published as the deepest of the four; and Mastani - night-blooming jasmine and Damask rose over sandalwood, oudh, vanilla and tonka. 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, which is enough to settle a three-way comparison properly. Two limits before you order. All three are evening compositions, so if the reason they stopped looking is that everything on offer felt heavy, this is the wrong end of the range and Adaa at ₹379 is the straight answer. And nothing here predicts which of the three gets used, because that is not information SOSA publishes about anybody. A portion of every SOSA order supports girl-child education through Nanhi Kali.
The exhausting decision is not which to wear. It is whether the shortlist was right.
The quick version: the 3 x 3ml trio at ₹1,055 when the point is to give them three things to wear and find out, 3 x 6ml at ₹1,859 or 3 x 12ml at ₹3,189 when you expect all three to be used, a single 12ml at ₹1,149 to ₹1,199 when you already know the direction. Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani every time - Adaa is sold separately from ₹379.
The SOSA Attar Trio from ₹1,055
Three things that make a decision smaller, and one that only looks like it does
Being overwhelmed by choice is a real constraint and it deserves a real answer rather than more options. The useful move is to take a decision away rather than to make it easier - and the three things below are where that does and does not work.
01
Where the paralysis actually sits
The hard decision is the shortlist, not the wearing
Standing in front of hundreds of bottles, nobody is struggling to tell whether they enjoy the thing on their wrist. They are struggling with the hundreds they did not try - the sense that the right one is somewhere in the rest of the shop and every choice is provisional. That is why one scent for years is such a common outcome: it is not a verdict, it is the point where somebody stopped paying the cost of deciding. Anything that hands them a longer list, however well meant, charges that cost again. What helps is a decision already closed above them, so the only thing left is the part that happens on skin.
Tip: Nobody is tired of smelling things. They are tired of shortlisting them.
02
Why fixed helps here
A set nobody assembled is a set nobody can second-guess
The SOSA Attar Trio is one published combination - Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani - in whichever single size you pick. It is not put together around a person, it cannot be recomposed, and Adaa, the fourth attar, is sold on its own from ₹379. On almost every other version of this question that fixedness is the honest limitation to declare. Here it does the work: there is no alternative version of the box to wonder about, no shortlist anybody had to get right, and nothing to compare the three against except each other. ₹1,055 for three 3ml, ₹1,859 for three 6ml, ₹3,189 for three 12ml, and the composition never changes between them.
03
What makes the comparison finish
Sixty wears is what stops a three-way decision staying open
A comparison that never closes is just the original problem in miniature, which is the risk with any discovery set. The published quantity is what prevents it: a 3ml is roughly 60 wears at one dab, so each of the three can be worn for days at a stretch rather than tested against the other two in one afternoon. The drydown develops after the first thirty minutes and wear is 6 to 8 hours per bottle, longer on warm or oily skin - so a fair comparison takes a day each, several times over, and sixty wears is comfortably enough for that. SOSA publishes no wear figure for the 6ml or the 12ml, so nothing here scales that number.
Tip: Three things worn properly is a decision. Three things sniffed is another shortlist.
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.
See Adaa from ₹379 →
Work it out in this order
How to use a fixed set of three without reopening the question
- Accept the three as given. Nobody chose them, so there is nothing to defend.
- Wear one for several days before moving on. One dab, pulse points, no rubbing.
- Judge it after thirty minutes, not at the opening. That is the published drydown.
- If none of the three lands, the answer is lighter: Adaa, Rs 379, sold on its own.
The SOSA principle
Adding options to an overwhelmed decision is not generosity. The gift here is a choice that has already been narrowed by somebody who will never meet them.
Which is the one case in this whole range where a set nobody assembles is the point rather than the caveat.
The three the box always holds, and what sits at the other end
Three directions, far enough apart that a three-way comparison is a real one. Ameeri is the warm and festive one - Taif rose and Persian saffron over Indian sandalwood, with a soft oudh underneath and amber in the base. Nawaab is the deep one, published by SOSA as the deepest of the four: white royal oud led, dry and woody, with Mysore sandalwood and aged tobacco leaf. Mastani is floral with a base under it - night-blooming jasmine and Damask rose over sandalwood, oudh, vanilla and tonka. Three attars, three arrangements, and no fourth option to wonder about. If none of the three settles it, that is also a result - it says the answer is at the lighter end of the range, which is where Adaa sits, on its own from ₹379.
The SOSA gift edit
The four realistic moves, and where each one leaves them
| The option | Who it suits, and where it fails |
|---|---|
| Buy the scent they already wear | Changes nothing and costs the least. It is the right answer if the long-standing scent is a settled preference rather than a stalled search, and only they can say which of those it is. |
| The trio, 3 x 3ml at ₹1,055 | Three fixed directions, roughly 60 wears each, and no shortlist to defend. The honest limits: the three cannot be changed, and all three sit in the evening register of depth, warmth and floral. |
| Adaa on its own from ₹379 | One composition at the lightest end of the range, and the only one of the four with no oud in its published notes. It removes even the three-way decision, at the cost of removing the comparison as well. |
| One 12ml at ₹1,149 to ₹1,199 | A single direction in the largest published size. It is the least overwhelming purchase on this list and the least informative - somebody stalled by choice ends up with exactly one more bottle they did not choose. |
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.
See the SOSA Attar Trio from ₹1,055 →
A short note on what these are, because the format itself reduces the number of decisions. Each attar is a concentrated oil with a built-in dab applicator, so there is no spray, no cloud and no aiming - one dab on pulse points, and the published instruction is not to rub. They are alcohol-free, DPG-free, IFRA-compliant and skin-safe, carried on Indian sandalwood oil and jojoba, heat-stable to 45 degrees C and hand-blended in small batches in Pune by Sonal Sahani, ISIPCA Versailles trained. Attar oils can stain light silks, so they go on skin and not onto fabric. The three trio bottles come in a single gift-ready box, which is the only presentation SOSA publishes.
₹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.
A fixed set is usually the caveat on a page like this. On this question it is the whole argument: nobody shortlisted these three, so nobody can have shortlisted them wrongly.
— 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
Can the three attars in the set be chosen?
No. The SOSA Attar Trio is one fixed combination - Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani - and all three bottles come in the single size you select. Adaa, the fourth attar, is not in it and is sold separately from Rs 379. A different three, or three different sizes, means buying the bottles individually and the trio price stops applying.
Does three really make the decision easier than thirty?
Three is small enough to hold in your head and to wear one at a time over a few weeks. The published figure that matters is roughly 60 wears in a 3ml at one dab, which means each of the three can be worn properly rather than sampled. What none of that does is decide anything - the conclusion is the wearer's, and SOSA publishes no information about how anybody responds to a fragrance.
What if none of the three is right?
That is a useful outcome rather than a failure. All three are published as evening compositions of depth, warmth and floral, so ruling out all three points at the lighter end of the range. That is Adaa - bergamot, green cardamom, neroli, jasmine sambac and white musk - at Rs 379 in 3ml, Rs 669 in 6ml and Rs 1,149 in 12ml, bought on its own.
Is one 12ml bottle simpler than three small ones?
Simpler to receive, yes - one bottle, one decision already made. But it is a single direction at Rs 1,149 to Rs 1,199, and somebody who stopped searching because the field felt endless gets no comparison from it. The trio at Rs 1,055 in 3 x 3ml costs slightly less and closes a three-way question instead of an open one.
How long will three 3ml bottles last?
SOSA publishes roughly 60 wears in a 3ml at one dab, and 6 to 8 hours of wear per bottle, longer on warm or oily skin. There is no published figure for the 6ml or the 12ml, so nothing here scales that sixty, and no shelf life or expiry is published for any of the four attars either.
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.
