Which fragrance bottle size should you buy?

By Laika Fragrances

The right bottle size depends on how you’ll use the fragrance. A smaller bottle can make sense if you’re trying something new or want to carry it in your bag. If you already have a favourite that you wear regularly, you may prefer to keep a larger bottle at home. Laika lists its oil-based fragrances in 30 ml, 60 ml and 100 ml sizes, so you can start with the size that fits your routine and budget.

Choose 30 ml when you’re exploring

Laika’s 30 ml bottle costs R100. It’s the smallest option on the list and a natural place to start if you want to try a different direction. If you usually wear deeper scents and want to explore something fresh, for example, you could look at Laika LF29, inspired by DKNY Be Delicious. A smaller bottle also makes sense when you’re shopping for a gift and have a general idea of what the person likes.

Choose 60 ml for a scent you wear regularly

At R160, the 60 ml bottle sits between trying a new fragrance and choosing the largest size. Think of a scent you might reach for on ordinary weekdays but still swap out at weekends. If you already enjoy the idea of blackcurrant and rose, you could check Laika LF82, inspired by Armani Sì, in 60 ml. The same approach works if you rotate between two favourites and want more of the one you reach for most.

Choose 100 ml when you know your favourite

The 100 ml bottle costs R250 and offers the lowest price per millilitre of the three listed sizes. It can make sense when you already know the fragrance is one you’ll come back to. If you regularly reach for the inspiration behind Laika MF7, inspired by Armani Black Code, for instance, compare 60 ml and 100 ml based on how often you’d use it and how much you want to spend now.
