Small enough to put in your purse in case you forget to put on perfume in the morning. Or put it in your makeup case. Or both! It's a soft pick-me-up kind of a fragrance, not a 'fill-the-room-it's-me' kind of fragrance. And the texture will be determined by the temperature, since it's made with natural ingredients... a bit softer in warm weather and firmer in cold temperatures. **PLEASE NOTE: if you like your fragrance strong, this solid perfume probably isn't for you and you would be better served by a liquid perfume. This a subtle, personal fragrance. Also, please see photos and general information for the size of the tin. It is a compact size. I mix the fragrance with a combination of sweet almond oil, organic shea butter, organic beeswax, and Vitamin E oil, so it not only smells good, but it provides nourishing ingredients to your skin. Then I package it in a conveniently sized tin that fits in a small pocket of your purse or in your make up bag. Solid perfumes aren't something new. The ancient Romans and Egyptians used to use them for scents and/or healing properties. Europeans carried them around in fancy lockets. So I feel like I'm in good company.
