Why is a refill cheaper than buying bottles? Because a little bottle makes you pay again for glass, a box and reeds every time. A refill is just the oil, so more of the price is fragrance - and one refill replaces six to ten 50ml bottles.
How long does an affordable refill last? A 300ml refill lasts roughly 8-11 months and a 500ml roughly 14-18 months, so the cost drops to a few rupees a day of scent.

The short answer
Short answer: the cheapest scent per month is a big refill - about ₹7-8 per ml, up to ~55% less than new bottles.

Straight answer
The refill is the affordable choice - and the bigger, the cheaper
Reed diffusers look cheap to run and then quietly are not, because a 50ml bottle empties in six to eight weeks and you keep rebuying it at roughly ₹15-17 per ml. The affordable fix is a refill: a 300ml is ₹2,399 (about ₹8 per ml) and a 500ml is ₹3,499 (about ₹7 per ml) - up to around 55% less per ml, and each one replaces six to ten little bottles. A 300ml keeps one diffuser going for 8-11 months and a 500ml for 14-18 months, which brings the real cost down to a few rupees a day of scent. Want two scents on a budget? SOSA also does reed diffuser duo sets from around ₹1,498. Same oil, same quality - you are just no longer paying for glass you already own.
One line: a big refill is up to ~55% cheaper per ml than new bottles; the 500ml at about ₹7/ml is the best value. From ₹2,399.
The 500ml refill is the lowest running cost - about ₹7 per ml, ₹3,499 for well over a year of scent.

The SOSA principle
The little bottle is mostly glass, box and reeds - paid for again and again. A refill is mostly fragrance.
That is the whole reason a refill is cheaper: you stop rebuying the packaging and buy the part that actually runs out. From ₹2,399, and the 500ml is cheaper still per ml.

The affordable way to keep your diffuser going - a big refill from ₹2,399, or a duo set from around ₹1,498.
