A decant is a smaller portion of a fragrance taken straight from the original bottle and transferred into a high-quality glass atomizer.

The fragrance itself doesn't change in any way; you're getting the same scent the brand intended, just in a more manageable size.

Decants are the simplest way to explore a perfume before committing to a full bottle.

Yes, completely. We pour every fragrance directly from its authentic source bottle into a clean glass atomizer.

The way it smells, how long it lasts on your skin, and how it projects will all match the original exactly.

Without exception. Every single fragrance we carry is purchased through verified, authorized retailers in its original packaging.

Samples and testers are usually 1–2ml in basic vials with no real spray mechanism.

Our decants come in 5ml or 10ml premium glass atomizers with proper fine-mist spray pumps, giving you a real, usable amount of fragrance you can wear for weeks or months.

Expect around 80 sprays from a 5ml decant, enough for daily use across 2 to 4 weeks.

A 10ml decant doubles that, with roughly 160 sprays and 4 to 8 weeks of regular wear. The exact timing depends on how heavily you spray and how often you wear it.

For a fragrance you've never tried, 5ml is the smarter starting point. You'll have several weeks to wear it and decide if it's truly yours.

For something you already love and reach for often, 10ml gives you better cost-per-spray and means you won't run out as quickly.

Of course. Order as many as you'd like in any combination of sizes. They all ship together in one carefully packed parcel. Mixing and matching is actually the best way to build your fragrance wardrobe.

At the moment, our standard sizes are 5ml and 10ml. We may introduce larger formats in the future based on customer demand. Sign up for our newsletter to be the first to hear if we do.

Each decant ships in a high-quality glass atomizer fitted with a fine-mist spray pump. Every bottle is labeled with the fragrance name, then carefully wrapped and placed inside protective packaging built to handle transit safely. Clean, simple, and made to feel like a small luxury.

The atomizer is technically refillable if you're handy with decanting tools, but we'd recommend keeping it as a one-time use bottle to avoid contamination between fragrances. If you love a scent and want more, ordering a fresh decant guarantees the cleanest experience.

Find a cool, dark, dry spot. Drawers, cupboards, or a dressing table all work well.

Avoid places with heat, sunlight, or humidity. Bathrooms are the worst possible storage spot, since steam from showers will degrade fragrance faster than almost anything else.

Treated well, your decant will hold its quality throughout its usage.

Yes. Both 5ml and 10ml decants are well within airline carry-on liquid limits (100ml maximum per container in most regions). Just place it in your liquids bag at security and you're good to go.

Every fragrance we carry is purchased through authorised retailers, official distributors, or verified resellers within the Middle East. We do not source from grey markets, unofficial channels, or unverified sellers. Authenticity is non-negotiable.

We currently ship across the entire UAE, including Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah, and Umm Al Quwain. International delivery isn't available yet, but it's coming soon.

We dispatch UAE orders within 24 hours of purchase. Most orders arrive in 1 to 4 business days, depending on your emirate. You'll receive a tracking link by email so you can follow your decant from our studio to your door.

Yes! All UAE orders above AED 199 ship free. Orders below that threshold have a small flat-rate shipping fee of AED 15, calculated at checkout.

Not yet. International shipping is on our roadmap and will launch in the coming months. Sign up for our newsletter to be the first to know when we expand.

Unfortunately, opened decants cannot be returned or refunded. Fragrance is deeply personal, and once a bottle has been used, it can't be resold for hygiene reasons.

If you're unsure about a fragrance, we'd recommend starting with our 5ml size. It gives you several weeks to decide while keeping your investment small.

Just reach out within 48 hours of delivery. Send us a quick photo and your order number, and we'll get a replacement on the way to you at no extra cost. We pack carefully to prevent this, but accidents happen, and we'll always make it right.

We're a UAE-based fragrance studio operating from the heart of the Emirates. Every decant is hand-poured locally and shipped from within the UAE, so domestic delivery is fast and reliable.

No. Decant is an independent fragrance studio, and we're not affiliated with, endorsed by, or in partnership with any of the brands whose fragrances we decant.

We simply curate authentic fragrances we love and make them more accessible. All trademarks belong to their respective owners.

We're real people who actually love fragrance. Happy to help with recommendations, questions, or anything else.
