The full picture
How do the sizes differ?
Both shops cover the discovery range. Eurodecants offers 2 ml, 5 ml, and 10 ml. Scento offers 2 ml, 5 ml, and an 8 ml travel spray — a size most decanters skip, sitting between a generous tester and a 10 ml format. If you want the largest single decant, Eurodecants' 10 ml is bigger; if you want a travel spray to actually wear day to day — one that fits Scento's refillable aluminium case — the 8 ml is built for that.
Are both authentic, and how is that proven?
Scento states that each decant is hand-poured from an original full-sized bottle sourced through authorised European retailers — never a clone, dupe or inspired-by version. Manufacturer batch codes belong to those original bottles and are not printed on Scento decant vials.
Which ships faster within the EU?
Both ship across Europe with free-shipping thresholds. Eurodecants offers free shipping over €60, uses PostNL, and lists order processing separately from destination-specific transit estimates in its official policy (eurodecants.com/policies/shipping-policy). Scento offers free shipping over €75 and tracked delivery to 26 supported European countries, with timing and rates depending on destination and order value. Compare the current policy and checkout estimate for your address rather than assuming either retailer is always faster.
Who is each shop best for?
