Perfume Bottle Sizes: A Guide to 10, 15, 30, 50 and 100 ml

10-15 ml: samples and travel

These are used for perfume vials, discovery sets and travel retail and gift sets. They are small, light and inexpensive to ship, and often accompany a full-size bottle.

30 ml: handbag and standard

A popular entry size for eau de parfum, convenient and affordable, and a common choice for online sales.

50 ml: the flagship

The 50 ml bottle is the most common flagship for eau de parfum and offers the best balance of price, value and shelf presence.

100 ml: large and men's

The 100 ml size suits eau de toilette, men's fragrances and value-focused lines, but carries more weight and volume in shipping.
