A few details, considered
What is a fragrance decant?
A fragrance decant is a smaller amount of perfume transferred from a full retail bottle into a clean glass atomiser. It's the same fragrance as the original — just a 2ml, 5ml, 10ml or 50ml portion instead of a whole bottle. Decants let you wear a scent properly for days or weeks before deciding whether to spend $200–$400 on the full size.
Are your fragrances authentic?
Yes. Every decant is poured by hand from a genuine, retail bottle we've bought ourselves. No clones, no oils, no "inspired by" versions. What you receive is the real fragrance.
How long does a 2ml decant last?
A 2ml gives you roughly 20 sprays — enough to wear a fragrance for several days and know whether it suits you. A 5ml is about a week of regular wear.
What sizes do you sell?
Most fragrances are available as 2ml, 5ml, 10ml and 50ml decants, with full 100ml bottles on selected scents. The 100ml is a sealed retail bottle in its original box — not a decant. Available sizes are shown on each product page.
