Bottle sizes
Which perfume bottle size is ideal for me?
From Rollerball to the XXL-bottle
The range of perfumes is huge, especially at XXL-Parfum.ch with its more than 7500 exclusive fragrances. Not only those looking for a new fragrance are spoilt for choice, but also those who have already found their favourite fragrance and are now offered different bottle sizes. Which one is the right one? We answer the most frequently asked questions.
Which bottle sizes are available at XXL-Parfum.ch?
XXL-Parfum.ch offers perfumes in a variety of flacon sizes. The most common are 30, 50 and 100 milliliters. In our assortment you will also find Rollerballs with 10 millilitres content and the 800-milliliter-XXL-bottle 4711 Original Kölnisch Wasser.
Does perfume from larger bottles smell less intense?
One often reads and hears that perfumes should be “stretched” in larger bottles or that there are differences in scent depending on the flacon size. They’re both myths. You get the same top quality in every bottle with original branded perfumes as we sell them.
Does the size affect the durability of the perfume?
An eau de parfum or eau de toilette, if stored properly, usually lasts for three years – no matter what bottle it is in. So there is no reason why you should not use a larger bottle in this respect.
How long do the typical 50 and 100 millilitres last?
As studies show, 50 milliliters of perfume should last around eight months or 250 days with the recommended average of three sprayers per use. At 100 milliliters, it is equivalent to 16 months.
Why are larger bottles significantly cheaper?
Smaller perfumes are more expensive to produce (packaging etc. ) and therefore you pay more per milliliter. A small tip: even at XXL-Parfum.ch, where you benefit from unbeatable prices, it’s worth comparing sizes.
For whom is it worth buying smaller perfume flacons?
100 milliliters of perfume are enough for almost a year and a half with typical use. So if you quickly smell “full” of a fragrance or use several fragrances, you should rather use a smaller bottle. And of course, the smaller bottles are also better for your handbag.
Vacation’s coming. What size is allowed in hand luggage?
When travelling by air, liquids in hand luggage have a maximum capacity of 100 milliliters – so most perfumes fit. By the way, it does not matter whether the bottle is made of glass, plastic or other material.
