Is the trio put together around the fragrance she already wears? No. The SOSA Attar Trio is one fixed combination - Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani - with all three bottles in the single size you select. Nobody assembles it around a person. Adaa, the fourth attar and the lightest of the four, is not in it and is sold on its own from ₹379. A different three, or three in mixed sizes, means buying the bottles individually at full price.
What does it cost at each size? ₹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 three bottles bought one at a time. That is ₹118, ₹204 and ₹354 better on a like-for-like basis - ten per cent at every tier, and the same three attars in all three.

This is a narrower question than it looks, and the narrowness is the useful part. She is not looking to replace the bottle she wears; she is looking for a second register - something for the evenings that are not ordinary evenings. That means you are not shopping for a favourite. You are shopping for a direction she has never had a reason to test, because the bottle that covers her week has never needed to do anything else. And a direction is not something anybody can settle by reading about it. It gets settled on a wrist, over an evening, at the point where the drydown has taken over from the opening.
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 a trio of attars help somebody work out which fragrance direction suits a dressed-up occasion? It can put the directions in front of her, which is the part she cannot do from a description. The SOSA Attar Trio is ₹1,055 for three 3ml bottles - Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani - and SOSA publishes all three as evening compositions, which is exactly the register the question is about. Each 3ml is published at roughly 60 wears at one dab. Which one she settles on is not something SOSA publishes any information about.Is the trio put together around the fragrance she already wears? No. The SOSA Attar Trio is one fixed combination - Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani - with all three bottles in the single size you select. Nobody assembles it around a person. Adaa, the fourth attar and the lightest of the four, is not in it and is sold on its own from ₹379. A different three, or three in mixed sizes, means buying the bottles individually at full price.
What does it cost at each size? ₹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 three bottles bought one at a time. That is ₹118, ₹204 and ₹354 better on a like-for-like basis - ten per cent at every tier, and the same three attars in all three.
The short answer
Short answer: The SOSA Attar Trio is Rs 1,055 in 3 x 3ml, Rs 1,859 in 3 x 6ml and Rs 3,189 in 3 x 12ml, and it is one fixed set of Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani. All three are published as evening compositions, which is the register an occasion bottle sits in. A 3ml is roughly 60 wears at one dab. Which of the three she wears is hers to decide.
The pick: The 3 x 3ml trio at ₹1,055 - three evening directions to wear to actual evenings, rather than one guess at what a dressed-up scent should be.
Why: An everyday signature says nothing about the occasion slot, because it has never been asked to fill it. Three evening compositions at roughly 60 wears each turn that into something she can settle herself.
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 girlfriend has one signature fragrance she loves but wants something different for special occasions - could a trio help her identify which scent direction feels more dressed-up?
Yes, with one correction to the question and one limit worth knowing before you order. The correction: a trio cannot identify anything. It puts three compositions where she can wear them, and she does the identifying - which is the whole reason the format works here, because a dressed-up register is not something anybody settles from a note list. The SOSA Attar Trio 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. It holds Ameeri - Taif rose, Persian saffron and Indian sandalwood over a measured oudh and amber; Nawaab - white royal oud with 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 published at roughly 60 wears at one dab. Now the limits. The trio is a fixed set - it cannot be recomposed, all three bottles come in one size, and Adaa is not in it. All three are evening compositions, so this box answers the occasion question and does not touch a daytime one; Adaa is the daytime attar and it is bought separately from ₹379. And nothing anywhere tells you which of the three she will reach for on the night, because SOSA publishes no information of that kind about anybody. A portion of every SOSA order supports girl-child education through Nanhi Kali.
An everyday bottle is not evidence about occasions. It has never been asked the question.
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 decide this, and none of them is which bottle is nicest
The trap in this purchase is treating it as a scaled-up version of choosing an everyday perfume. It is not. An occasion bottle is worn rarely and has to do more when it is - which changes the size you buy, the direction you look in, and who gets to decide.
01
What is actually being asked
She is adding a register, not replacing a signature
Read the request literally and it gets easier. She is not dissatisfied with what she wears. She has a bottle that handles ordinary days and she wants something for the days that are not ordinary - which is a gap in coverage, not a complaint about taste. That matters, because it means her current fragrance is a poor guide to the answer. It was chosen to be liveable five days a week, and an occasion bottle is chosen for the opposite reason. The honest position is that you know the everyday end of her range and nobody yet knows the other end, including her.
Tip: A signature covers the week. It has never been asked about the evening.
02
What the box is
One fixed combination, all three in the size you pick
This is the fact most versions of this question get wrong, so it is worth being flat about it. The SOSA Attar Trio is one published combination: Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani. It is not put together around a person, it cannot be recomposed, and every bottle in it comes in the single size you select - ₹1,055 for three 3ml, ₹1,859 for three 6ml and ₹3,189 for three 12ml. Adaa, the fourth attar and the lightest of the four, is sold on its own from ₹379. SOSA's own page states that a different three, or three different sizes, means buying the bottles individually and losing the trio price.
03
Size against frequency
Sixty wears is a lot of occasions
Here is where an occasion bottle behaves differently from an everyday one. A 3ml is published at roughly 60 wears at one dab, and something worn only to evenings that matter is not being worn sixty times in a hurry. So the smallest tier at ₹1,055 is not a token gesture in this particular case - it is a genuinely long-lived bottle at the frequency the question describes, times three. The ₹1,859 and ₹3,189 tiers make sense when you expect all three to move into regular use rather than stay occasional. SOSA publishes no wear figure for the 6ml or the 12ml, so nobody should be multiplying that sixty up for you.
Tip: Sixty wears at occasion frequency is years. At daily frequency it is two months.
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
Settle it in this order and the size question answers itself
- Separate the two jobs: her week is solved, the occasion slot is not.
- Accept that the direction is hers to settle, not yours to guess.
- Check the box is the right register. It is an evening set, with no Adaa in it.
- Then size it. Rs 1,055 buys the comparison; Rs 3,189 buys the supply.
The SOSA principle
You are not buying her an answer. You are buying her the three things she would need in order to have one.
Which is why the smallest tier is the serious option here rather than the thrifty one.
The three compositions in the box, in the register the question is about
The three in the box are genuinely unlike one another, and all three sit in the register this question is about. Ameeri is the warm and festive one - Taif rose and Persian saffron over Indian sandalwood, with a measured oudh underneath and amber in the base. Nawaab is the deep one, and SOSA publishes it 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 different arguments about what a dressed-up evening smells like, which is a real comparison rather than three shades of one idea.
The SOSA gift edit
The four ways to spend this money, and where each one runs out
| The option | Who it suits, and where it fails |
|---|---|
| Her signature again, in a larger bottle | Adds volume to a question she has already solved and leaves the occasion slot exactly as empty as it is now. The one thing it cannot do is tell either of you anything new. |
| One unfamiliar 12ml at ₹1,149 to ₹1,199 | A single committed guess at an entire register. If the direction is right it is the best thing on this list; if it is not, it is the largest published size of something that gets worn twice a year out of politeness. |
| The trio, 3 x 3ml at ₹1,055 | Three evening compositions at roughly 60 wears each, which at occasion frequency is a long time in every bottle. The limits are real: the three are fixed, and there is no daytime attar in the box. |
| The trio, 3 x 12ml at ₹3,189 | The same three compositions in the largest published size. This is the supply purchase, not the comparison purchase - it makes sense when all three are expected to be worn, not sorted through. |
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.

Two practical notes that decide more of these purchases than the scent does. All four SOSA attars are alcohol-free and DPG-free, carried on Indian sandalwood oil and jojoba, IFRA-compliant, heat-stable to 45 degrees C and hand-blended in small batches in Pune by Sonal Sahani, who trained at ISIPCA Versailles. And they are oils, not sprays: each bottle has a built-in dab applicator, the published instruction is to dab on pulse points and not to rub, and attar oils can stain light silks, which is worth saying out loud on a page about occasion dressing - the attar goes on skin, before the clothes, not onto the fabric. The trio's three 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.
Rarely worn is not the same as barely used. At occasion frequency, roughly sixty wears is a bottle that outlasts the question it was bought to answer.
— 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 I pick which three attars go in the trio?
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 part of it and is sold separately from Rs 379. SOSA's own page says that if you want a different three, or three different sizes, you buy the bottles individually and the trio price stops applying.
Are all three really different, or are they three versions of the same thing?
They are different compositions. Ameeri is rose and saffron led over sandalwood with a measured oudh; Nawaab is white royal oud with Mysore sandalwood and aged tobacco leaf, published as the deepest of the four; Mastani is night-blooming jasmine and Damask rose over sandalwood, oudh, vanilla and tonka. Oudh appears in all three, but it sits in a different place in each.
Is a 3ml large enough for something she will only wear occasionally?
SOSA publishes a 3ml at roughly 60 wears at one dab. Worn only to evenings that matter, that is a long-lived bottle rather than a taster. The 6ml and 12ml tiers exist for when a scent has moved into regular use - though SOSA publishes no wear figure for either of those sizes, so there is nothing to scale from.
Her everyday perfume is light and citrusy. Does that change the answer?
It changes which product is the honest one. SOSA publishes the trio as an evening set of depth, warmth and floral, and its own page lists a preference for fresh, light, citrusy fragrance as a reason not to buy it. The lightest attar in the range 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.
How long does an attar last on skin?
The published figure is 6 to 8 hours per bottle, longer on warm or oily skin, with the drydown developing after the first thirty minutes. That is the entire published disclosure on wear: no sillage figure, no projection figure, no room-distance claim and no seasonal claim appears on any SOSA attar page, and none is invented here.

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.
The fragrance gift that hands the choosing back to the person wearing it
SOSA — alcohol-free oil attars, hand-blended in Pune in 3ml, 6ml and 12ml; the fixed Attar Trio from ₹1,055, single bottles from ₹379, 6 to 8 hours of wear per bottle
Message SOSA on WhatsApp at +91 96192 18531, say what she wears now and what the occasion is, and you will get one straight answer - including the times that answer is Adaa on its own from ₹379 rather than the trio. A portion of every SOSA order supports girl-child education through Nanhi Kali.

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.
