Frequently Asked Questions
Expertly blended in the UK. Unbeatable longevity. No designer markups.
We’ve spent years perfecting our formulas to capture the character and "DNA" of the world’s most iconic scents. While no two fragrances are ever 100% identical due to different ingredient sources, about 97% of our community tell us they can’t tell the difference.
We focus on the notes that matter most—the ones that linger on your skin and get you noticed.
It’s a fair question! The "big" brands spend a fortune on celebrity ambassadors, primetime TV ads, and custom-molded glass bottles.
We decided to skip all of that. By using standardised, minimalist bottles and focusing our budget entirely on high-quality oils and perfumer’s alcohol, we can offer the same olfactory experience without the "luxury" markup.
Longevity is a top priority for us. We formulate our scents as Eau de Parfum (EDP) or Parfum concentrations, which contain a higher percentage of fragrance oils than a standard Eau de Toilette.
While everyone’s skin chemistry is different, our scents are designed to provide a strong "scent trail" and last through a standard workday or evening out.
We know that buying fragrance online can feel like a gamble. That’s why we offer a straightforward return policy. If you spray your bottle and realise it’s not quite what you expected, you can return it to us within 30 days for a swap or a refund.
We want you to find a scent you genuinely love wearing.
Yes. We use high-quality, industry-standard ingredients, and all our products are fully compliant with safety regulations.
However, because fragrance contains allergens (even natural ones), we always recommend a quick "patch test" on your wrist before a full application if you have very sensitive skin.
Never. We are 100% cruelty-free and our formulas are vegan-friendly. We believe you should be able to smell incredible without any compromise on your values.
We aim to get your new favourite scent to you as fast as possible!
Most orders are dispatched within 24 hours. Once it leaves us, you can usually expect your parcel at your door within 2–3 working days.
You’ll get a tracking link the moment it’s on its way so you can keep an eye on its progress.
The Essence Vault Guarantee
At The Essence Vault, we believe in fragrances that make you feel amazing. That's why we offer a 30-day money-back guarantee—so you can shop with confidence.
If you're not completely in love with your scent, simply return it within 30 days for a full refund. No hassle, no stress—just a promise that you'll find a fragrance you truly adore.

These perfumes smell just like the real thing
“Trust me when I say these perfumes smell just like the real thing. They also last a very long time - one spray in the morning, and I can still smell it at bedtime! I 100% recommend them!”

Took delivery of this and a few other fragrances only yesterday 15th May. This fragrance is insane. I can still smell it this morning. Outstanding value and fragrance pay off.
Cant wait to try the others now too!
Absolutely beautiful fragrances! I’ve had so many compliments wearing them. I loved my first order so much that I’ve ordered the same one again, along with two more of my favourites. I adore the original perfumes, but they can be so expensive, so finding these amazing fragrances at such great prices is fantastic. Thank you again for the wonderful service and beautiful scents! Ordered another three 💕
Gorgeous! Sweet, ambery, slightly orangey, hint of vanilla, warm, delicious but not at all cloying. Warm sunshine in a bottle. Out of this world. My daughter came hunting for it as soon as she smelled it in the air and asked what it was. Needless to say, I lost it to her and will have to get another bottle!
Among the lemony citrusy scent of TEV, this is my favourite so I bought two bottles. It’s a unisex scent, and great for this coming summer. On my first use, my friends asked what scent I use because they love it. It’s light; it’s fresh; it’s best for day time wear.
It’s stunning!
It’s sweet but light. I can smell the vanilla the lemon and the slight hint of bergamot which keeps it fresh and not sickly. Perfect for spring, summer or abroad. Currently my every day go to
Absolutely adore the scent! It's sweet and refreshing at the same time. You even want to eat the scent. Lol. Received many compliments for this one and it also lasts which is great!
This is part of my recent order having read alot of positive reviews. It did smell amazing and delectable like a lemon meringue pie! I can't help sniffing myself. The scent lasts for a good 4 hours on me on a hot and humid day which is quite impressive.
I have the original and this is exactly the same but much better longevity. Kayali fragrances last an hour so I won't be spending my money on them now I've found TEV.
This is so fresh and sweet and the perfect scent for summer as it reminds me of blue skies and sunshine 🌞. It smells EXACTLY like the original for a fraction of the price! Win win!
This has become my second favourite scent from the essence vault, only topped by 444, the lemon is so gorgeous in this, almost edible, its a perfect summer feel good scent
This is my new favourite summer scent. I bought 5 x 30ml bottles with no idea how any of them would be but read the scent description and thought this sounded like a good summer edition to my collection. I have to say I'm very happy with it. I wish it lasted a little longer but the scent is beautiful.
Beautiful perfume 😍. I am always commented on or asked about my perfume when I wear it AND it lasts all day and into the evening. Very happy- thank you!
Hier ga ik een groot formaat van kopen nu ik weet hoe geweldig deze ruikt. Blijft de hele dag hangen. Mijn kleren ruiken er nog veel langer naar. Heerlijk!
It's gorgeous it's my 2nd bottle it's summer in a bottle it's sweet,with a hint of lemon 🍋 it's gorgeous inlove it I just wish the smell lasted longer that's the only down side
Another fantastic scent! This exceeded my expectations, lemon and vanilla. Perfect for summer! I get so many compliments on my Essence Vault perfumes. They never disappoint ☺️
It's gorgeous it's summer in a bottle it reminds me of lilt and malibu it's sooooo nice it's definitely been my go to with the warm weather,I wish it had a longer scent I feel like it doesn't last as long that's the only thing but it's a definite summer scent
I ordered a sample size of this first as I'd never heard of it, but thought it sounded summery. My initial reaction was I thought it was a bit sweet for me BUT within minutes I loved it. I absolutely love the scent and it's my new go-to for summer, along with your Portofino (53). Both are uplifting in different ways and remind me of annual trips to the Amalfi coast. I don't know either original, but the scents are absolutely gorgeous and invoke happy, holiday memories. And the price is fantastic too! Thank you
