“Under ₹1000” usually means a compromise — a thin eau de toilette that smells nice for an hour and disappears. It does not have to. Here is how to find genuinely long-lasting perfume under ₹1000 in India, and the scents we would start with.
Under ₹1000 does not have to mean weak
What makes a perfume last is concentration — how much fragrance oil is in the bottle. Most budget perfumes are an EDT (5–15% oil), which is why they fade fast. Every scent at The Sillage Studio is a 33ml Parfum Extrait at 30% concentration, the same strength you would expect from a luxury counter — kept under ₹1000 by spending on the juice, not on imported branding.
