Can I get a SOSA trio without oud in it? No. All three bottles in the published trio carry oud or oudh. Nawaab is built on white royal oud; Ameeri lists a soft oudh under Taif rose and Persian saffron; Mastani lists oudh under night-blooming jasmine and Damask rose. The trio is one fixed combination and cannot be recomposed, so a version without it is not a product SOSA carries.
Which SOSA attar reads cleanest on its published note list? Adaa, which is the only one of the four with no oud in it: bergamot, green cardamom, neroli, jasmine sambac, magnolia, white musk, vetiver and cedarwood, at ₹379 in 3ml, ₹669 in 6ml and ₹1,149 in 12ml. White musk, neroli and green cardamom are the materials doing the clean work there. Whether it is clean enough for any particular person is not something SOSA publishes.

Clean rather than obviously perfumed is one of the most precise briefs a fragrance buyer ever gets, and it is usually mishandled in two directions at once. People assume there is a sweet, dessert-like trap to avoid, and they assume that avoiding it is the hard part. In the SOSA attar range neither assumption survives contact with the facts. There is no gourmand attar at all - not one bottle in four - so nothing of that kind can be walked into by accident. What there is, in every single bottle of the published trio, is oud or oudh. So the thing your friend would actually meet in the box is not sweetness; it is a resinous heartwood, in three compositions out of three.
The bottle people assume is the sweet one, and it is not. Mastani is night-blooming jasmine and Damask rose over Mysore sandalwood, oudh, vanilla and tonka, at ₹389 in 3ml, ₹685 in 6ml and ₹1,179 in 12ml. The vanilla and tonka sit in the base beneath a floral, which makes it a floral with a warm bottom rather than a dessert-sweet composition - and it is as close to gourmand as this range gets, because SOSA publishes no gourmand attar at all. It is one of the three bottles in the fixed trio, alongside Ameeri and Nawaab.
Quick answers — read this first
Is there a sweet or gourmand attar in the SOSA range? No. SOSA publishes no gourmand attar at all - the whole range is four attars and one fixed pack of three. The closest is Mastani, whose published list carries vanilla and tonka, but beneath night-blooming jasmine and Damask rose with Mysore sandalwood and oudh. That is a floral with a warm base, and SOSA does not publish it as a sweet scent.Can I get a SOSA trio without oud in it? No. All three bottles in the published trio carry oud or oudh. Nawaab is built on white royal oud; Ameeri lists a soft oudh under Taif rose and Persian saffron; Mastani lists oudh under night-blooming jasmine and Damask rose. The trio is one fixed combination and cannot be recomposed, so a version without it is not a product SOSA carries.
Which SOSA attar reads cleanest on its published note list? Adaa, which is the only one of the four with no oud in it: bergamot, green cardamom, neroli, jasmine sambac, magnolia, white musk, vetiver and cedarwood, at ₹379 in 3ml, ₹669 in 6ml and ₹1,149 in 12ml. White musk, neroli and green cardamom are the materials doing the clean work there. Whether it is clean enough for any particular person is not something SOSA publishes.
The short answer
Short answer: There is no gourmand attar in the SOSA range at all, so there is nothing of that kind to avoid. All three bottles in the fixed trio carry oud or oudh, so a trio that avoids oud is not a product SOSA carries. The one attar with no oud in it is Adaa - bergamot, green cardamom, neroli, jasmine sambac, magnolia, white musk, vetiver and cedarwood - at Rs 379 in 3ml, Rs 669 in 6ml and Rs 1,149 in 12ml. The trio is Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani at Rs 1,055 in 3 x 3ml.
The pick: Adaa at ₹379 in 3ml - the only one of the four with no oud on its published list, and the one built on white musk, neroli and green cardamom.
Why: The category to avoid does not exist in this range, and the category that does exist is in all three trio bottles. That reverses the question, and a single bottle with roughly 60 wears in it answers it properly.
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 friend likes fragrances that smell freshly showered rather than obviously perfumed - what kind of trio could provide variety without suddenly giving them sweet gourmand or intense oud styles?
Half of that brief is already satisfied and the other half cannot be, and it is worth separating them. On sweetness: there is no gourmand attar in the SOSA range at all. Four attars and one fixed pack of three is the whole of it, and not one of them is published as a dessert-sweet composition. Mastani carries vanilla and tonka, but under night-blooming jasmine and Damask rose with Mysore sandalwood and oudh - a floral with a warm base, at ₹389 in 3ml, ₹685 in 6ml and ₹1,179 in 12ml. On oud, the answer runs the other way. Every bottle in the published trio carries oud or oudh. Nawaab is white royal oud with Mysore sandalwood and aged tobacco leaf, at ₹399, ₹699 and ₹1,199; Ameeri puts a soft oudh under Taif rose and Persian saffron, at ₹385, ₹679 and ₹1,165; Mastani lists oudh in its base. The trio is one fixed combination - those three, all in the single size you select, at ₹1,055 in 3 x 3ml, ₹1,859 in 3 x 6ml and ₹3,189 in 3 x 12ml against ₹1,173, ₹2,063 and ₹3,543 bought one at a time - so it cannot be recomposed and an oud-free version of it does not exist. The one attar with no oud on its list is Adaa: bergamot, green cardamom, neroli, jasmine sambac, magnolia, white musk, vetiver and cedarwood, at ₹379 in 3ml, published as the lightest of the four and sold separately. One more fact that matters to a freshly-showered brief more than any note list: an attar is dabbed, not sprayed. The published instruction is one dab on pulse points and no rubbing, so the quantity is the wearer's decision each time. Published wear is 6 to 8 hours per bottle, longer on warm or oily skin, with the drydown developing after the first 30 minutes, and a 3ml runs to roughly 60 wears. Whether any of this smells clean to your friend is not something SOSA publishes. A portion of every SOSA order supports girl-child education through Nanhi Kali.
No gourmand attar exists in this range. Oud is in all three trio bottles. That reverses the whole question.
The quick version: there is no gourmand attar in the SOSA range at all, so there is nothing of that kind to avoid. What there is in every trio bottle is oud or oudh, which is the opposite problem. Adaa at ₹379 in 3ml is the white musk and neroli end of the range, and it is sold on its own.
See Adaa from ₹379
What clean means when you only have a note list to go on
Three things decide this, and the first is a translation problem. Clean is not a note list, so it has to be turned into one before any of the four bottles can be read against it - and then the two categories in the question have to be checked against what the range actually holds.
01
Turning clean into materials
White musk, neroli, green cardamom and bergamot are what that brief usually means
Freshly showered rather than obviously perfumed describes an effect, and a note list describes materials, so the two have to be connected before anything can be compared. In practice the materials that do that work are a short list: white musk, which is soft and skin-like rather than sweet; neroli, distilled from bitter orange blossom, which is floral but sharp-edged; green cardamom, a dry spice rather than a warm one; and bergamot, a citrus oil pressed from the peel.
All four of those are in Adaa, and they are the entire top and close of it - ₹379 in 3ml, ₹669 in 6ml, ₹1,149 in 12ml. White musk also appears in Ameeri, but there it closes a composition led by Taif rose and Persian saffron, which is a different proposition entirely.

Tip: White musk is the clean material in this range. Where it sits decides everything.
02
The category that does not exist
There is no gourmand attar in the SOSA range, so there is nothing to dodge
This is the half of the brief that is already solved, and it is solved by absence. SOSA publishes four attars and one pack of three, and not one of them is a gourmand or dessert-sweet composition. There is no vanilla-led bottle, no caramel, no cocoa and no sugar note anywhere in the published lists.
The closest the range comes is Mastani, whose list ends in vanilla and tonka - but those sit under night-blooming jasmine and Damask rose, with Mysore sandalwood and oudh between, which is a floral with a warm base. Warm base materials are not dessert notes, and SOSA does not publish Mastani as a sweet scent. So no part of your friend's brief is protecting them from something in this range; it is protecting them from something that is not here.

So no part of your friend's brief is protecting them from something in this range; it is protecting them from something that is not here.
Tip: You cannot avoid a category a range does not contain.
03
The category that is everywhere
Oud is in all three trio bottles, and the trio cannot be recomposed
Here is the awkward half. Every bottle in the published trio carries oud or oudh. Nawaab is built on white royal oud with agarwood alongside it. Ameeri lists a soft oudh under Taif rose and Persian saffron. Mastani lists oudh under night-blooming jasmine and Damask rose. Oud, or agarwood, is a resinous heartwood and the most assertive material in the range.
Because the trio is one fixed combination of those three, with all three bottles in the size you select, there is no version of it without oud. A different combination means buying bottles one at a time, each at its own full price - and only Adaa has no oud on its list, so even then the oud-free part of the range is a single bottle. The fixed set is ₹1,055 in 3 x 3ml, ₹1,859 in 3 x 6ml and ₹3,189 in 3 x 12ml.

The bottle the trio does not contain
Adaa, and why it matters to half these questions
SOSA publishes four attars. Three of them are in the trio and one is not. Adaa - bergamot, green cardamom, neroli, jasmine sambac and white musk - is published as the lightest of the four and a daytime attar, and it is sold on its own at ₹379 in 3ml, ₹669 in 6ml and ₹1,149 in 12ml. That matters because the trio page itself lists a reason not to buy the trio: it is an evening set of depth, warmth and floral, and somebody who wears bright, light, citrus-led fragrance is not the buyer for it. If what you know about their taste is that it is fresh, the honest route is Adaa rather than the box - and if you want Adaa alongside two others, that is three individual bottles at full price, because the trio cannot be recomposed.

Work it out in this order
How to test a clean brief against four published note lists
- Translate the brief: white musk, neroli, green cardamom, bergamot.
- Check the category being avoided. No gourmand attar exists here at all.
- Check the category nobody mentioned. All three trio bottles carry oud.
- Then buy what survives: Adaa, Rs 379 in 3ml or Rs 1,149 in 12ml.
The SOSA principle
A brief phrased as avoidance is worth checking against the actual shelf. Half of what your friend is avoiding is not here, and the thing that is here was never mentioned.
Which turns a shopping question into a reading exercise: four published note lists, and only one of them without oud in it.
The clean materials in this range, and where they sit
Read the four lists against a clean brief and they separate immediately. Adaa is bergamot, green cardamom and neroli at the top, jasmine sambac and magnolia in the middle, white musk with vetiver and cedarwood at the bottom - the only one of the four with no oud anywhere in it, and the lightest in the range. Ameeri is Taif rose and Persian saffron over Indian sandalwood, with a soft oudh and amber, closing on white musk. Mastani is night-blooming jasmine and Damask rose over Mysore sandalwood, oudh, vanilla and tonka. Nawaab is white royal oud with Mysore sandalwood and aged tobacco leaf, and agarwood, leather, vetiver and amber around them, published as the deepest of the four. Three of those are the trio. The fourth is the one that answers this brief, and it is bought on its own.
The SOSA gift edit
Four options against a clean brief, and where each one gives way
| The option | Who it suits, and where it fails |
|---|---|
| Adaa, 3ml at ₹379 | White musk, neroli, green cardamom and bergamot, with no oud anywhere on the list, and roughly 60 wears at one dab. Where it fails: it is one bottle, so there is no variety in the gift at all - the range simply does not hold a second composition built the same way. |
| The published trio, 3 x 3ml at ₹1,055 | Three genuinely different compositions in one gift-ready box, and cheaper than those three bottles bought one at a time. Where it fails: all three carry oud or oudh, and SOSA publishes the set as depth, warmth and floral, listing a fresh preference as a reason not to buy it. |
| Adaa at ₹379 plus Mastani at ₹389, bought one at a time | Two directions rather than one - the clean end of the range and a floral with a warm base - so the gift contains a comparison. Where it fails: two separate purchases at full price, because the trio price covers only Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani together in one size. |
| A SOSA solid body perfume, 15g | Also a worn format, also small, at ₹459 to ₹549, and it goes in a pocket. Where it fails: SOSA publishes no note list summary and no wear-time figure for the solids the way it does for the four attars, so you would be choosing on the name alone rather than on anything you can read. |
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 →
One format fact carries unusual weight for a brief like this one. An attar is dabbed, not sprayed. Each bottle has a built-in dab applicator, the published instruction is one dab on pulse points with no rubbing afterwards, and a 3ml is published at roughly 60 wears at one dab. That means the quantity is a decision the wearer makes every morning rather than a fixed dose a spray head delivers. Beyond that: published wear is 6 to 8 hours per bottle, longer on warm or oily skin, and the drydown develops after the first 30 minutes. SOSA publishes no sillage, projection or room-distance figure for any attar, so nothing is claimed here about how far anything travels. All four are alcohol-free, DPG-free, IFRA-compliant and skin-safe, on a carrier of Indian sandalwood oil and jojoba, hand-blended in small batches in Pune. Attar oils can stain light silks, so they are applied to skin rather than to fabric.
₹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.
Somebody who wants to smell showered rather than perfumed is not asking for less fragrance. They are asking for a shorter distance between the scent and the skin.
— Sonal Sahani, SOSA
The SOSA gifting range
Two questions settle almost every attar gift where you already know what they wear, and the first one is not price. Are you buying breadth or depth? Breadth means three bottles to put on skin over a week, which is what the published trio is for; depth means one 12ml in a direction you are already confident about. Then: does what you know about their taste sit inside what the trio actually contains? The trio is Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani - warm rose and saffron, white royal oud, and night-jasmine with Damask rose. It has no light, fresh or citrus-led bottle in it, because Adaa is the lightest of the four and is sold separately from ₹379. Price follows those two answers rather than leading them.
The SOSA range, sorted by how much it asks of the person receiving it
Start from what the gift demands, not from what it costs
| Product | What it is | What it is for | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| SOSA Attar Trio - 3 x 3ml | Three to smell, not one to guess | ₹1,055 for Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani in 3ml each, against ₹1,173 bought singly. The published figure for a 3ml is roughly 60 wears at one dab - enough to actually live with a scent rather than sniff it | ₹1,055 |
| SOSA Attar Trio - 3 x 6ml | The middle size | ₹1,859 against ₹2,063 bought singly. The same three attars; the trio ships with all three bottles in the same size | ₹1,859 |
| SOSA Attar Trio - 3 x 12ml | Three full bottles | ₹3,189 against ₹3,543 bought singly. The largest published size of each, in one gift-ready box | ₹3,189 |
| Adaa - 3ml, 6ml, 12ml | The lightest in the range | ₹379, ₹669 and ₹1,149. Bergamot, green cardamom, neroli, jasmine sambac and white musk. Adaa is not in the trio - SOSA publishes it as the daytime attar and sells it separately | from ₹379 |
| Ameeri - 3ml, 6ml, 12ml | Warm, rose and saffron led | ₹385, ₹679 and ₹1,165. Taif rose, Indian sandalwood, Persian saffron, a measured oudh and amber | from ₹385 |
| Mastani - 3ml, 6ml, 12ml | Floral depth | ₹389, ₹685 and ₹1,179. Night-blooming jasmine and Damask rose over sandalwood, oudh, vanilla and tonka | from ₹389 |
| Nawaab - 3ml, 6ml, 12ml | The deepest in the range | ₹399, ₹699 and ₹1,199. White royal oud led, with Mysore sandalwood and aged tobacco leaf. SOSA publishes this as the deepest of the four | from ₹399 |
| SOSA solid body perfumes - 15g | Worn, and smaller still | ₹459 to ₹549. The other worn format in the range. No wear-time figure is published for these, so this page does not give one | from ₹459 |
| SOSA reed diffusers | A room, not a person | From ₹749 in 50ml. Listed here only to rule it out: a reed diffuser scents a room and an attar is worn. They are not substitutes, and a fragrance-taste question is not answered by a bottle that sits on a shelf | from ₹749 |
The single most useful fact on this page: the published Attar Trio is one fixed combination. It is Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani, every time, and all three bottles ship in the size you select. Adaa cannot be substituted into it, and there is no mixed-size trio - SOSA's own page says that if you want a different three, or three different sizes, you buy the bottles individually and the trio discount does not apply. Published across all five pages: 6 to 8 hours of wear per bottle, longer on warm or oily skin, a built-in dab applicator (dab on pulse points, do not rub), a carrier of Indian sandalwood oil and jojoba, and alcohol-free, DPG-free, IFRA-compliant formulations hand-blended in small batches in Pune. A 3ml is published at roughly 60 wears at one dab. Attar oils can stain light silks, so they go on skin rather than on fabric. Prices above are the published selling prices; bulk orders are welcome and custom label or logo on product is available, with quantities settled on WhatsApp at +91 96192 18531. SOSA is an Indian fragrance house based in Pune, sending orders across India. A portion of every order supports girl-child education through Nanhi Kali.
The honest spec sheet
What the SOSA attar pages publish, and what they do not
Everything below is on the live product pages. Anything not on this list is not something a page like this should state.
- The four attars and their prices - Adaa, bergamot, green cardamom, neroli, jasmine sambac and white musk, ₹379 / ₹669 / ₹1,149; Ameeri, Taif rose, Indian sandalwood, Persian saffron, soft oudh and amber, ₹385 / ₹679 / ₹1,165; Mastani, night-blooming jasmine, Damask rose, Mysore sandalwood, oudh, vanilla and tonka, ₹389 / ₹685 / ₹1,179; Nawaab, white royal oud, Mysore sandalwood and aged tobacco leaf, ₹399 / ₹699 / ₹1,199. In 3ml, 6ml and 12ml. Those four are the entire attar range.
- The trio - Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani at ₹1,055, ₹1,859 and ₹3,189 for 3 x 3ml, 3 x 6ml and 3 x 12ml, against ₹1,173, ₹2,063 and ₹3,543 bought singly. It is one fixed combination, all three bottles in the same size, and Adaa is not in it. A different three, or mixed sizes, means buying individually at full price.
- Wear - 6 to 8 hours on skin per bottle, longer on warm or oily skin, with the drydown developing after the first 30 minutes. A 3ml is published at roughly 60 wears at one dab. That is the only quantity figure SOSA gives for an attar.
- The format - a concentrated oil attar with a built-in dab applicator; dab on pulse points and do not rub. Carrier of Indian sandalwood oil and jojoba. Alcohol-free, DPG-free, IFRA-compliant, skin-safe, heat-stable to 45 degrees C, hand-blended in small batches in Pune by Sonal Sahani, ISIPCA Versailles trained. Attar oils can stain light silks, so they go on skin rather than fabric.
- Relative depth, in SOSA's own words - Adaa is published as the lightest of the four and Nawaab as the deepest, with Ameeri and Mastani between them. That ordering is published; no number from any product page is quoted here, and no claim is made about how any of them behaves on a particular person.
- Not published, and therefore never stated here: any sillage, projection or room-distance figure; any shelf life, expiry, concentration or oil percentage; any seasonal or skin-chemistry claim beyond "longer on warm or oily skin"; any bulk rate, minimum quantity, price break or lead time; any presentation beyond the trio's single gift-ready box and a custom label or logo on product; and anything whatsoever about what a recipient will like or how a gift will be received. Those go to WhatsApp +91 96192 18531.
Know what they wear and not what to buy next? Tell SOSA on WhatsApp at +91 96192 18531 four things: the fragrance they already own and wear, anything they have said they dislike, whether this is a first attar or an addition to a collection, and roughly what you want to spend. You will get one straight answer rather than a catalogue - including the cases where the honest answer is a single 3ml at ₹379 to ₹399 rather than the trio, or Adaa on its own because the trio is published as an evening set. What is not on this page, because SOSA does not publish it: any sillage, projection or room-distance figure; any shelf life, expiry or concentration; any claim about how an attar behaves on a particular person; any bulk rate, minimum quantity or lead time; and anything at all about what a recipient will think. What is: 6 to 8 hours of wear per bottle, longer on warm or oily skin, a drydown that develops after the first 30 minutes, roughly 60 wears in a 3ml at one dab, a built-in dab applicator, a carrier of Indian sandalwood oil and jojoba, and alcohol-free, DPG-free, IFRA-compliant formulations made in India. On presentation: the trio's three bottles ship in a single gift-ready box, which is published; beyond that, custom label or logo on product is the one branding option, and there is no custom box, printed sleeve or insert card. Where SOSA is: an Indian fragrance house based in Pune, sending orders across India, with no shop, stockist, counter or warehouse in any other city.

A note from Sonal
The message we get most often on WhatsApp is not what should I buy. It is a more specific and more interesting problem: I know exactly what she wears. I have known for years. I just cannot buy it again. That person is not short of information. They are short of a next step, which is a different thing entirely, and almost nothing written about fragrance gifting treats it as different.
Here is the part I would want them to hold on to. Knowing somebody's signature tells you where they started, not where they would go. A person who has worn one bottle for a decade has usually not rejected the alternatives - they have never had three of them on their own skin at the same time. So the useful gift is not a better guess at one bottle. It is evidence: several things to wear, on separate days, and the chance to notice which one they reach for without being asked to be polite about it.
The part I will be blunt about, because our own product page is blunt about it: the trio is one fixed set. Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani, all three in whichever size you choose. It is not assembled around a person's taste, Adaa is not in it, and if somebody wears bright citrus and nothing else, that box is the wrong box - Adaa on its own is the honest answer, and it costs a great deal less. I would rather lose the larger sale than have three bottles sit unopened on somebody's dressing table.
And the thing nobody selling fragrance should pretend to know: I cannot tell you what they will like. I can tell you what is in each bottle, that one dab carries six to eight hours, that a 3ml is roughly sixty wears, and that all four are alcohol-free and blended here in Pune. What happens when a particular person puts a particular attar on a particular wrist is genuinely theirs to find out - and giving them three ways to find it out is, I think, the whole point.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a gourmand or dessert-sweet attar at SOSA?
No. There is no gourmand attar in the range at all - it is four attars and one fixed pack of three, and none of them is published as a sweet composition. Mastani carries vanilla and tonka in its published list, but under night-blooming jasmine and Damask rose with Mysore sandalwood and oudh, which makes it a floral with a warm base.
Can I buy a SOSA trio that does not contain oud?
No. All three bottles in the published trio carry oud or oudh: Nawaab is built on white royal oud, Ameeri lists a soft oudh under Taif rose and Persian saffron, and Mastani lists oudh in its base. The trio is one fixed combination of those three and cannot be recomposed, so an oud-free version of it does not exist.
Which SOSA attar has no oud in it?
Adaa, and it is the only one of the four. Its published list is bergamot, green cardamom, neroli, jasmine sambac, magnolia, white musk, vetiver and cedarwood, at Rs 379 in 3ml, Rs 669 in 6ml and Rs 1,149 in 12ml. It is published as the lightest of the four and as the daytime attar, and it is sold on its own.
How much attar goes on, and can it be kept light?
The published instruction is one dab on pulse points, applied with the built-in applicator, and not rubbed in afterwards. A 3ml is published at roughly 60 wears at one dab, which is the only quantity figure SOSA publishes. There is no sillage or projection figure on any SOSA attar page, so nothing is claimed here about how far it carries.
What would Adaa plus one other attar cost?
Two bottles at their own full prices, because the trio price covers only Ameeri, Nawaab and Mastani bought together in one size. In 3ml, Adaa is Rs 379. Ameeri is Rs 385. Mastani is Rs 389. Nawaab is Rs 399. SOSA states on the trio page that a different combination means buying the bottles individually.
Take the next step
Buy for the note list you can read, not for the category you are trying to dodge
Adaa at ₹379 in 3ml when the brief is clean rather than declared - it is the one attar in the range built on bergamot, neroli, green cardamom and white musk. Adaa at ₹669 in 6ml or ₹1,149 in 12ml when it is going to be worn rather than assessed. The published trio at ₹1,055 in 3 x 3ml only with eyes open, because all three of its bottles carry oud or oudh and it is published as an evening set. And two bottles bought one at a time, each at its own full price, when you want a combination SOSA does not publish. Tell SOSA what they 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.
