Is a two-bottle set the honest way to go larger? It is the only published combination, and it buys a second place rather than more range. Day & Night is ₹1,498, Fresh & Grounded ₹1,548 and Warmth & Bloom ₹1,598 in 50ml x 2, or ₹2,498 to ₹2,598 in 130ml x 2. Both bottles in a set are the same size and none is composed to order.
What about the machines SOSA makes for large properties? They exist and they are a different category. Vaayu at ₹11,999, Angaan at ₹25,999 and Meenar at ₹38,500 are property-scale equipment that has to be installed and then run by whoever lives there. That is a decision for the owner of a building, not something a guest turns up holding on a Friday evening.
See SOSA reed diffusers from ₹749 →
The instinct is to scale the gift to the building, and it runs straight into a flat obstacle: SOSA publishes no coverage, room-size or square-footage figure for a reed diffuser at all. There is no specification to hold a house up against. What the sizes genuinely change is published, and it is not reach - more liquid is more weeks. The only thing that grows with a property is the number of surfaces somebody could put a bottle on, and that is a count, not a capacity.
The only published way a large property changes the answer. A SOSA duo set, ₹1,498 to ₹1,598 in 50ml x 2 - two bottles for two surfaces rather than one bottle asked to do more than a bottle does. Both bottles in a set are the same size and none of the three pairings is composed to order. No coverage or room-size figure is published for any reed diffuser, in any size.
Quick answers — read this first
Does a 50ml reed diffuser still make sense in a large house? The published difference between the sizes is duration, not distance. A SOSA 50ml is ₹749 to ₹849 and is published to last 6 to 8 weeks; the 130ml is ₹1,249 to ₹1,349 and lasts 14 to 18 weeks. No coverage or room-size figure is published for either, so nobody can tell you what one bottle does in a particular hall.Is a two-bottle set the honest way to go larger?

The short answer
Short answer: Size converts into weeks, not reach. A SOSA 50ml reed diffuser is Rs 749 to Rs 849 and is published to last 6 to 8 weeks; the 130ml is Rs 1,249 to Rs 1,349 for 14 to 18 weeks. No coverage or room-size figure is published for a reed diffuser, so a bigger house does not point at a bigger bottle - it points at how many places somebody might use one.
The pick: A duo set, ₹1,498 to ₹1,598 in 50ml x 2 - two bottles for two places, which is the only published way a large property changes the answer.
Why: It is the one combination SOSA publishes, and it scales the gift by a count of places rather than by a coverage figure that does not exist.
In this guide
A gift cannot change how somebody's week went, and a page that suggests otherwise is not worth reading. What a small parcel does is tell a person you were thinking about them on a day when nothing made you - which is a real thing to say, and worth saying. Keep it small, because a large one asks somebody already short of energy to produce a reaction, and send the words separately, because the object cannot carry them.

Straight answer
I am visiting friends at their large weekend villa for the first time, and one small diffuser may be out of proportion to the property - but buying decor for a home I barely know feels risky. Should I choose a combination or move to a larger format?
Before the format, settle what the property can actually change. It cannot change reach, because SOSA publishes no coverage, room-size or square-footage figure for a reed diffuser - there is no number to hold a villa up against, and any page that gives you one is inventing it. What the sizes change is duration. A 50ml is ₹749 for Morning Freshness, ₹799 for Garden Bloom and Evening Calm, and ₹849 for Mountain Breeze and Fresh Brew, published to last 6 to 8 weeks. The 130ml is ₹1,249 to ₹1,349 and lasts 14 to 18 weeks. Same object, same six fibre reeds in a refillable glass bottle, same coconut-derived CCT carrier that is phthalate-free, paraben-free and IFRA-compliant, made in India - just more of it, for longer. So the only published way a big house changes the answer is a count of places. The duo sets - Day & Night ₹1,498, Fresh & Grounded ₹1,548, Warmth & Bloom ₹1,598 in 50ml x 2, or ₹2,498 to ₹2,598 in 130ml x 2 - give two bottles for two surfaces. Those three pairings are the whole set range, none is composed to order, and both bottles in a set are the same size, so a duo is two places rather than one big one and one small one. And the equipment that genuinely is sized to a property - Vaayu ₹11,999, Angaan ₹25,999, Meenar ₹38,500 - has to be installed and run, which is the wrong thing for a guest to arrive with however large the house is. Your other worry answers itself: you said buying decor for a home you barely know feels risky, and it is, because a decorative object asks for permanent space and permanent approval in rooms you have not seen. A consumable asks for a surface and then ends. Nothing here can tell you how the gift will be received - SOSA holds no information of that kind. A portion of every SOSA order supports girl-child education through Nanhi Kali.
You cannot buy a larger radius, because no radius is published. You can buy more weeks, or a second place. Those are the only two levers the range actually has.
The scale answer on this page: a duo set, ₹1,498 to ₹1,598 in 50ml x 2 - two bottles, two places, both the same size. One 50ml at ₹749 to ₹849 is still a whole gift.

Three ways to make the gift bigger, and what each one actually buys
Three levers get reached for when a house is large. Two of them exist in the published range and one of them belongs to whoever owns the building.
1
Lever one
More liquid - which buys weeks, and nothing else
This is the substitution almost everybody makes without noticing: a bigger bottle is assumed to reach further. It does not, and nothing published says it does. The two sizes differ in how long they run, which SOSA does state per size: 6 to 8 weeks for the 50ml at ₹749 to ₹849, and 14 to 18 weeks for the 130ml at ₹1,249 to ₹1,349.
There is no square-footage figure, no room-size guidance and no coverage claim anywhere in the range for a reed diffuser. How a scent behaves in one particular hall depends on that hall - its volume, its ventilation, how open it is to the rest of the house - and none of that is something a product page can know in advance. The honest position is that the reader has stood in the room and SOSA has not.
So if you move up to the 130ml, be clear with yourself about what you bought. You bought roughly three months instead of roughly two, in a larger piece of glass. That is a real upgrade for a first visit to somewhere you may not return to soon. It is not an answer to the size of the building.

Tip: Going from 50ml to 130ml buys duration. It does not buy distance, and no page can promise otherwise.

Lever two
A second bottle - which buys a second place
This is the lever that does respond to a large property, and it responds in the only way a bottle can: by being in two rooms instead of one. Two bottles is two surfaces, chosen by the household after you have gone home.
What is published is three sets and only three. Day & Night pairs Morning Freshness with Evening Calm at ₹1,498. Fresh & Grounded pairs Morning Freshness with Mountain Breeze at ₹1,548. Warmth & Bloom pairs Fresh Brew with Garden Bloom at ₹1,598. All three are 50ml x 2; in 130ml x 2 they are ₹2,498, ₹2,548 and ₹2,598.
Three practical limits, because people plan around them. None of the three is composed to order, so a pairing you have invented is not available. Both bottles in a set are the same size, so you cannot take one large and one small. And a set is still two consumables, not a fitting - it needs two flat surfaces and nothing else, with no flame, no socket, no switch and nothing to demonstrate while somebody is still holding the door open.

The machines that are sized to a property - and why they are not this gift
SOSA does make equipment for buildings, and naming it is the quickest way to rule it out. Vaayu is ₹11,999, Angaan is ₹25,999 and Meenar is ₹38,500. These are property-scale machines. They have to be installed and then run by whoever lives in the house, and that is a decision belonging to the owner of a building rather than to somebody arriving for a weekend.
The mid-range is worth knowing too, if only so you do not assume the gap is empty. Sukoon at ₹1,899 is an ultrasonic - it needs a socket, water and regular refilling, which makes it a household appliance somebody has to operate rather than an object that works by standing there.
And the practical warning, since a villa invites a grander presentation. SOSA's only branding is a custom label or logo on product. There is no custom box, no printed sleeve and no insert card. There is no carton, no ribbon and no message card. If it has to look wrapped at the gate, that is yours to organise. Bulk is welcome with no rate, no minimum quantity, no price break and no lead time published - quantities are settled on WhatsApp at +91 96192 18531.

Tip: Equipment is installed and operated. A gift is handed over and then forgotten about, which is the difference that matters here.
The property that makes this work as a first-visit gift
A consumable is not an object somebody has to keep
The real fear behind a first-visit gift is not that it will be disliked. It is that it will have to be kept - displayed, dusted, and eventually explained if it disappears. A decorative object carries all of that into a home you have never seen. A reed diffuser does not, because it ends by itself. The published life makes that concrete: 6 to 8 weeks for the 50ml at ₹749 to ₹849, and 14 to 18 weeks for the 130ml at ₹1,249 to ₹1,349. It also asks nothing of anybody on the day - no flame, no socket, no switch, nothing to demonstrate. And if they do like it, the glass bottle is refillable, with refills at ₹2,399 for 300ml and ₹3,499 for 500ml in all five scents.

Work it out in this order
How to settle the scale question without inventing a number
- Accept there is no coverage or room-size figure to match a property against.
- Read size as duration: 50ml is 6 to 8 weeks, 130ml is 14 to 18 weeks.
- Read a duo set as two places, not as more range. Both bottles are one size.
- Leave the property-scale machines out. They are installed, not handed over.
The SOSA principle
What changes when a house gets larger is not what one bottle does. It is how many surfaces exist to put one on - and which of those surfaces gets used is decided by the household, days after you have left.
That is why scale, on this page, comes out as a count of places rather than as a capacity figure nobody publishes.
Which scent, and where the two-bottle option really sits
Five scents, and on a first visit to a house you have not been inside the sensible move is to narrow rather than to optimise. Morning Freshness at ₹749 is Malabar lemon and mint, bright and citrus. Garden Bloom at ₹799 is British rose and night-blooming jasmine. Evening Calm at ₹799 is lavender and chamomile. Mountain Breeze at ₹849 is Himalayan pine, sage and cedar, green and woody. Fresh Brew at ₹849 is Coorg coffee and Kerala vanilla, the most particular of the five and therefore the largest guess. All five carry 6 fibre reeds in a refillable glass bottle on a coconut-derived CCT carrier, phthalate-free, paraben-free and IFRA-compliant, made in India, with the reeds flipped roughly once a week to refresh projection. One thing worth stating flatly: a reed diffuser adds a scent. It does not remove, neutralise, mask or purify a smell, and it does not clean the air.
The SOSA gift edit
Four ways to answer a big house, and what each one actually delivers
| The option | Who it suits, and where it fails |
|---|---|
| One 50ml · ₹749 to ₹849 | Published at 6 to 8 weeks, six fibre reeds, refillable glass, nothing to switch on. It is one object for one surface, which is a complete gift and not a partial one. It fails only if you had decided in advance that the number of bottles has to answer the number of rooms. |
| One 130ml · ₹1,249 to ₹1,349 | The same object with more liquid in it, published at 14 to 18 weeks. Worth choosing when you may not be back for a while. It is not a reach upgrade - no coverage or room-size figure is published for either size, so it changes the calendar rather than the floor plan. |
| A duo set · ₹1,498 to ₹1,598 | Two bottles, so two places - the only published way a property size changes the answer. Day and Night, Fresh and Grounded, and Warmth and Bloom are the whole range; none is composed to order and both bottles in a set are the same size, so a chosen pairing is not on offer. |
| A property-scale machine · ₹11,999 to ₹38,500 | Vaayu, Angaan and Meenar are built for buildings, and that is exactly why they are the wrong answer here. Each one has to be installed and then run by the household. A guest arriving for a weekend is not in a position to hand over equipment somebody else has to commission. |
When one bottle is not quite the right size of gesture
The three duo sets - and they are the only three
Several of these situations want something a little larger without becoming complicated: a first formal visit, a weekend stay, a household that has just hosted you for a week. The published answer is a duo set - two bottles in one box. Day & Night pairs Morning Freshness with Evening Calm at ₹1,498; Fresh & Grounded pairs Morning Freshness with Mountain Breeze at ₹1,548; Warmth & Bloom pairs Fresh Brew with Garden Bloom at ₹1,598. In 130ml x 2 they are ₹2,498, ₹2,548 and ₹2,598. Those three pairings are the entire set range, none is composed to order, and both bottles in a set are the same size. On presentation, be straight with yourself before you order: custom label or logo on product is the only branding SOSA offers - there is no custom box, no printed sleeve and no insert card.
See the duo sets from ₹1,498 →
Two footnotes that keep this decision honest. Refills are ₹2,399 for 300ml and ₹3,499 for 500ml in all five scents, which matters on a weekend house: if the bottle is used and liked, the glass is refillable rather than disposable, and that is a fact about the object rather than a prediction about anybody. And SOSA attars from ₹379 are worth naming so you can set them aside quickly - an attar is worn on the body, which makes it a gift for one named person rather than for a house with several people moving through it. On a first visit to a shared property, that distinction decides more than the price does.
₹749 to ₹849 across five scents, published to last 6 to 8 weeks. Large enough to be a proper object, small enough that the household never has to find permanent space for it.
from ₹749
₹1,249 to ₹1,349, published to last 14 to 18 weeks. The same object with more of it - the honest way to make the gesture larger without making it more complicated.
from ₹1,249
Two bottles in one box, ₹1,498 to ₹1,598 in 50ml and ₹2,498 to ₹2,598 in 130ml. Three published pairings, and those three are the whole range - none is composed to order.
from ₹1,498
One message, one honest recommendation
Tell SOSA who it is for, roughly how big the room is, whether their home is already scented and what you want to spend - and you will be told which size and which scent, including the times the honest answer is the 50ml rather than the 130ml.
A bottle has no specification that answers a building. It has a published life and a surface to stand on, and that is the whole of the spec sheet.
— Sonal Sahani, SOSA
The SOSA gifting range
Two questions settle almost every reed diffuser gift, and the first one is not price. How big is the room it is going into? A 50ml suits a bedroom, a study, a hallway or a first diffuser; a 130ml suits an open-plan living and dining area, and it is genuinely too much for a small closed bedroom. Then: how much do you actually know about their taste? The less you know, the less declarative the scent should be - Morning Freshness is the safest of the five for a home you have never stood in, and Fresh Brew coffee-vanilla is the strongest opinion in the range. 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 reed diffuser - 50ml | The first-visit size | ₹749 to ₹849 across five scents. Published to last 6 to 8 weeks, with 6 fibre reeds and a refillable glass bottle. No flame, no socket, nothing to switch on | from ₹749 |
| SOSA reed diffuser - 130ml | The larger bottle | ₹1,249 to ₹1,349, the same five scents. Published to last 14 to 18 weeks - the honest choice when the gesture needs weight rather than a second bottle | from ₹1,249 |
| SOSA reed diffuser duo sets | Two bottles, one box | Day & Night ₹1,498, Fresh & Grounded ₹1,548, Warmth & Bloom ₹1,598 in 50ml x 2; ₹2,498 to ₹2,598 in 130ml x 2. These three pairings are the whole set range | from ₹1,498 |
| SOSA reed diffuser refills | If they like it, it continues | ₹2,399 for 300ml and ₹3,499 for 500ml, published for all five scents. The bottle is refillable glass, so the gift does not have to be a one-off | from ₹2,399 |
| SOSA attars | Worn, not placed | From ₹379 in 3ml. An attar is a personal gift and a reed diffuser is a household one - which is the distinction most first-visit questions are really about | from ₹379 |
| SOSA candles | They need a flame | From ₹399. Warm and traditional, but somebody has to light them and stay with them, which is a real consideration in a home you do not know | from ₹399 |
| SOSA ultrasonic machines | Water-based, plugged in | Boond ₹899, Sukoon ₹1,899, Megh ₹5,999 - they need a socket, water and regular refilling. That is a commitment to hand somebody on a first visit | from ₹899 |
A reed diffuser is a consumable, which is the whole argument for it as a first-visit gift. It is not a permanent object competing for a shelf in somebody else's home, and it needs no flame, no socket, no switch and no explanation at a front door. Published life is 6 to 8 weeks for the 50ml and 14 to 18 weeks for the 130ml, with 6 fibre reeds per bottle, a refillable glass bottle, and a CCT coconut-derived carrier that is phthalate-free, paraben-free and IFRA-compliant, made in India. Flip the reeds roughly once a week to refresh projection - the product pages state the interval slightly differently, between every three and every seven days. Fragrance adds a scent to a room; it does not remove, neutralise, mask or purify an odour and it does not clean the air. Prices above are published retail 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 reed 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 five scents and their prices - Morning Freshness, Malabar lemon and mint, ₹749 and ₹1,249; Garden Bloom, British rose and night-blooming jasmine, ₹799 and ₹1,299; Evening Calm, lavender and chamomile, ₹799 and ₹1,299; Mountain Breeze, Himalayan pine, sage and cedar, ₹849 and ₹1,349; Fresh Brew, Coorg coffee and Kerala vanilla, ₹849 and ₹1,349.
- Published life - 6 to 8 weeks for the 50ml and 14 to 18 weeks for the 130ml, stated on all five pages. This is newer and more specific than the flat figure earlier SOSA writing used.
- The format - 6 fibre reeds per bottle rather than rattan, a refillable glass bottle, and a CCT carrier (caprylic/capric triglyceride, coconut-derived) that is phthalate-free, paraben-free and IFRA-compliant. Made in India, formulated by Sonal Sahani, ISIPCA Versailles trained. No flame, no socket, no switch.
- Flip the reeds roughly once a week to refresh projection. The pages state it slightly differently - once a week on three of them, every five to seven days on one, every three to five on another - so treat it as about weekly rather than as a rule.
- Duo sets and refills - three published pairings at ₹1,498, ₹1,548 and ₹1,598 in 50ml x 2 and ₹2,498 to ₹2,598 in 130ml x 2, and refills at ₹2,399 for 300ml and ₹3,499 for 500ml in all five scents. Those three pairings are the entire set range and none is composed to order.
- Not published, and therefore never stated here: any coverage or room-size figure for a reed diffuser; how a scent behaves in a particular home; any bulk rate, minimum quantity, price break or lead time; any presentation packaging beyond a custom label or logo on product; and anything whatsoever about how a gift is received. Those go to WhatsApp +91 96192 18531.
Not sure how big the gesture should be? Tell SOSA on WhatsApp at +91 96192 18531 four things: whose home you are going to and how well you know them, whether you are staying or visiting for an evening, roughly what you want to spend, and whether anybody in the household has said anything about scent. You will get one straight answer rather than a catalogue - including the times the honest answer is the 50ml at ₹749 rather than anything larger. What is not on this page, because SOSA does not publish it: any coverage or room-size figure for a reed diffuser, any bulk rate, minimum quantity or lead time, and anything at all about how a gift is received. What is: 6 to 8 weeks for the 50ml, 14 to 18 weeks for the 130ml, 6 fibre reeds, a refillable glass bottle, and refills at ₹2,399 for 300ml and ₹3,499 for 500ml in all five scents. On presentation, be warned: custom label or logo on product is the one branding option - there is no custom box, no printed sleeve and no insert card, and there is no carton, no ribbon and no message card, so anything you want wrapped is yours to arrange. 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
A particular kind of message arrives on our WhatsApp, usually in the evening, usually slightly rushed. I am going to his parents' place on Sunday. I have never met them. I cannot go empty-handed and I have no idea what they like. It is one of the few gifting questions where the person is not really shopping. They are trying not to get something wrong in front of people whose opinion they have decided matters.
So the useful thing is not a recommendation, it is a subtraction. Most of what goes wrong with a first-visit gift is permanence. A decorative object has to be kept, displayed, and eventually explained if it is not. Food runs into what people eat. Anything personal runs into taste you have not earned the right to guess at yet. What is left is the category that ends by itself, and that is genuinely why a reed diffuser keeps coming up in those messages.
The part I would want you to hold on to is the least romantic part. The 50ml is published to last six to eight weeks, and the 130ml fourteen to eighteen. It has no flame, no plug and no switch, so nobody has to be shown how it works while their family stands in a doorway. It is a glass bottle and six fibre reeds, and it does the whole job by standing on a surface.
And the part I will not pretend about: I cannot tell you how anybody will take it. Nobody selling you a gift can, and the ones who promise it are selling you reassurance rather than a product. What I can tell you is what the object is, how long it lasts and what it asks of the person receiving it - which is very little. What that is worth on a Sunday afternoon in somebody's living room is yours to judge, not mine.
Frequently asked questions
How many square feet does one reed diffuser handle?
No figure of that kind is published. SOSA states no coverage, room-size or square-footage number for a reed diffuser in any unit, so nobody can tell you what one bottle does in a particular hall or across an open-plan floor. What is published is duration per size: the 50ml lasts 6 to 8 weeks and the 130ml lasts 14 to 18 weeks. You have stood in that house and SOSA has not, so the judgement about where a bottle goes is yours.
Does the 130ml reach further than the 50ml, or just last longer?
It lasts longer. That is the only published difference. The 50ml is Rs 749 to Rs 849 and runs 6 to 8 weeks; the 130ml is Rs 1,249 to Rs 1,349 and runs 14 to 18 weeks. Both hold 6 fibre reeds in a refillable glass bottle on the same CCT carrier, phthalate-free, paraben-free and IFRA-compliant, made in India. Moving up buys you weeks in the calendar, not metres in the hallway.
Is there a combination set, and can I choose the two scents?
There are three published sets and they are the entire range: Day and Night at Rs 1,498, Fresh and Grounded at Rs 1,548 and Warmth and Bloom at Rs 1,598 in 50ml x 2, or Rs 2,498 to Rs 2,598 in 130ml x 2. None of the three is composed to order, so a pairing you have chosen yourself is not offered. Both bottles in a set are also the same size, which means a set gives you two places rather than one large bottle and one small one.
Should I look at the larger SOSA machines for a property this size?
Not as a gift to carry in. Vaayu is Rs 11,999, Angaan is Rs 25,999 and Meenar is Rs 38,500, and all three are property-scale machines that have to be installed and then run by whoever lives in the house. That is a purchase an owner makes for their own building. Sukoon at Rs 1,899 is an ultrasonic and sits between the duo sets and the larger equipment, but it needs a socket, water and regular refilling, so it is an appliance somebody has to operate.
Can anything be added around the bottle before I hand it over?
No. Custom label or logo on product is the only branding SOSA offers. There is no custom box, no printed sleeve and no insert card. There is no carton, no ribbon and no message card. So if it needs to look wrapped when you walk in, that part is yours to arrange. Bulk orders are welcome, with no rate, no minimum quantity, no price break and no lead time published - quantities are settled on WhatsApp at +91 96192 18531.
Take the next step
Buy weeks or buy places - those are the two levers that exist
The 50ml at ₹749 to ₹849 when one bottle for one surface is the gift you meant to give - published at 6 to 8 weeks. The 130ml at ₹1,249 to ₹1,349 when you may not be back for a season - 14 to 18 weeks, same object, more of it. A duo set from ₹1,498 when a large house genuinely means two places rather than one. Tell SOSA on WhatsApp how many surfaces you actually have in mind, and expect a straight answer rather than a coverage figure that does not exist.
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.

- Brand: Founder story — why SOSA exists
Editorial standards & sources
About this guide: Written by Sonal Sahani, ISIPCA Versailles-trained founder and perfumer at SOSA Home & Body. Product recommendations reflect the SOSA range; the gift-choosing reasoning applies to any brand.Specifications verified from the live SOSA product pages, September 2026: SOSA reed diffusers are published in five scents and two sizes. Morning Freshness, Malabar lemon and mint, is ₹749 in 50ml and ₹1,249 in 130ml. Garden Bloom, British rose and night-blooming jasmine, and Evening Calm, lavender and chamomile, are ₹799 and ₹1,299. Mountain Breeze, Himalayan pine, sage and cedar, and Fresh Brew, Coorg coffee and Kerala vanilla, are ₹849 and ₹1,349. Published longevity is 6 to 8 weeks for the 50ml and 14 to 18 weeks for the 130ml. Every bottle is supplied with 6 fibre reeds rather than rattan, in a refillable glass bottle, on a CCT carrier - caprylic/capric triglyceride, coconut-derived - that is phthalate-free, paraben-free and IFRA-compliant, made in India. The product pages advise flipping the reeds to refresh projection and state the interval slightly differently, between once a week and every three to seven days, so no single interval is given here as a rule. Three duo combo sets are published: Day & Night at ₹1,498 in 50ml x 2 and ₹2,498 in 130ml x 2, Fresh & Grounded at ₹1,548 and ₹2,548, and Warmth & Bloom at ₹1,598 and ₹2,598; those three pairings are the entire set range and none is composed to order. Reed diffuser refills are ₹2,399 for 300ml and ₹3,499 for 500ml, published for all five scents. For comparison: SOSA attars are ₹379 to ₹399 in 3ml, rising to ₹1,149 to ₹1,199 in 12ml, and are worn rather than placed; SOSA candles start at ₹399 and require a flame; the ultrasonic machines Boond ₹899, Sukoon ₹1,899 and Megh ₹5,999 are water-based and need a socket, water and regular refilling. What is not published, and is therefore not stated here: any coverage, room-size or square-footage figure for a reed diffuser; how a scent behaves in any particular home; any shelf life, oil concentration or evaporation rate; any bulk rate, minimum quantity, price break or lead time; and any presentation packaging beyond a custom label or logo on product. Limits of this guide: fragrance adds a scent to a room. It does not remove, neutralise, mask or purify an odour, it does not clean the air, and no SOSA product makes any health, antibacterial or air-purifying claim. No claim is made anywhere on this page about mood, stress, calm, sleep or wellbeing; where a product is named Evening Calm or Mountain Breeze that is a product name and not a claim about its effect. No claim is made about how any gift will be received. Nothing here states or implies that a gift will impress anybody, be appreciated, create a good impression or affect any relationship; SOSA publishes no information of that kind and none is invented here. No statement is made about what any community, religion or family customarily eats, drinks or gives, and no etiquette rule is presented as a fact - the reasoning offered is reasoning the reader can check against their own situation. No rating, review count or customer name from any product page is cited, and no competitor or category of competing product is characterised. 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. Prices and availability are subject to change - see the live product pages.
