Decant/Partial Of Louis Cardin Illusion Homme EDP

A decant is 10ml of the exact same perfume, transferred by us from an original full bottle into a small glass spray bottle. It is not diluted or mixed with anything. It is the easiest way to wear an expensive perfume for a few weeks, on your own skin and in your own weather, before you spend on the full bottle.

Yes, 100%. We fill decants from the same original bottles we sell, using clean, dedicated equipment for each perfume so scents never mix. Same perfume, same strength, just a smaller quantity. Because decants are filled by hand, the fill level can vary very slightly.

A partial is the original retail bottle that we used to fill decants, with the rest of the perfume still inside. It comes with full presentation: the original bottle and its original box. The size option (for example 60ml, 70ml, 80ml) tells you how much perfume is left in that bottle, and it is priced by the ml. Most partials are one-of-a-kind, so once a size is sold it is gone.

We track the ml of every opened bottle at Fragstalk. Each time we fill a decant from a bottle, we mark it by hand on that bottle's box, and we update the live size on the website straight away. For example, if the box says '10ml x 3', we have taken 3 decants of 10ml (30ml) from it, so a 100ml bottle is sold as a 70ml partial. You can check the marks on the box yourself when your partial arrives. Because decants are filled by hand, there can be a very small difference of a millilitre or so.

Roughly 100 to 130 sprays, depending on the spray nozzle. At 6 to 8 sprays a day, a 10ml decant lasts about 2 to 3 weeks of daily wear, which is enough to really know a perfume.
