A perfume decant is a small amount of perfume that is transferred from an original bottle to another container, usually made of glass or plastic, for personal use or for sample purposes. The term "decant" comes from the verb "to decant", which means to transfer liquid from one container to another.
Decants are a convenient and affordable way to try out a variety of fragrances without having to buy full bottles of perfume. People often buy decants of niche or limited edition perfumes that are not readily available in stores and can be expensive to buy in full bottles.
Decants are typically available in sizes ranging from 1ml to 10ml or more, and are sold online through specialist fragrance websites. It is important to note that decants are not official products from the perfume manufacturer and therefore do not include the original packaging or any other information or warranties that may accompany the original perfume. However, decants are often a popular choice for those who want to try a variety of fragrances without investing in full bottles of perfume.
