The container should be appropriate for the formula and clearly identified. Different sample applicators can change how much product is used.

Small volumes still require proper information about use, ingredients and the item being supplied. A sample is a cosmetic product, not an exemption from responsible labelling.

When offered, compare sample options based on format, price and the time you need to assess the scent. Avoid rushing a decision from the opening alone.

An attractive format has to work in ordinary life. Check the finished product's directions, capacity, closure and available specifications before choosing it. XASIS currently presents its Signature Five as fragrance design concepts in development; final notes, formula details and availability are confirmed only for finished products.
