Frequently Asked Questions
Expertly blended in the UK. Unbeatable longevity. No designer markups.
Very close - close enough that Metro said: "We seriously couldn't tell the difference between this and the real deal."
We build each fragrance around the same scent profile as the original: the same opening notes, the same dry down, the same character.
We're not affiliated with the designer brands we reference, but we list our inspirations clearly on every product so you know exactly what you're getting before you order.
Every fragrance in our range is a true Eau De Parfum, formulated with high-quality fragrance oils. If you want stronger projection or longer wear, our Intense range uses an even higher oil concentration — you'll notice the difference in the first hour on skin.
Most of our fragrances last 8–12 hours, though this varies depending on your skin type, how you apply it, and the environment.
Dry skin tends to absorb fragrance faster - if that's you, applying to pulse points right after a shower (when pores are open) makes a noticeable difference. Our Intense range is formulated for stronger projection and longer wear if longevity is your priority.
Designer prices cover a lot more than what's inside the bottle - celebrity campaigns, luxury retail margins, and packaging that costs more to produce than the fragrance itself.
We skip all of that. Every pound goes into the formula: high-quality fragrance oils, UK manufacturing, and getting the scent right. That's why a 100ml bottle costs £24.99 instead of £120 or more.
Yes. We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee on all orders.
We know buying fragrance online carries some risk - you can't smell it before it arrives. So give it a few wears, see how it settles on your skin, and if it's not right for you, return the bottle for a full refund. No awkward questions.
Yes, absolutely!
One of the more frustrating things about expensive fragrance is rationing it - saving the bottle for occasions that feel worthy of the price. At £4.99 a bottle, that calculation disappears. Wear what you like, when you like, without thinking twice about it.
Yes. Every product we make is 100% vegan - no animal-derived ingredients - and cruelty-free at every stage of production.
Presence. Our core range is an Eau de Parfum blended at 20-25% fragrance oil, which gives most people 6 to 8 hours of wear. The Intense Collection is built to last longer, project further and carry deeper base notes, with 8 hours or more typical on skin.
Intense starts at £7.95 against £4.99 for the core range, so it comes down to how much the extra wear and presence matter to you.
Intense versions are available for most of our popular scents. Look for the black Intense label on the product page.
That's more common than you'd think. Two options depending on how you want to approach it.
Our Scent Finder Quiz asks about your occasions and the kinds of scents you already like, then recommends profiles that suit you — good if you want a quick steer.
If you'd rather try before you commit, our Discovery Set is the better route: 20 x 5ml samples for £44.99 (down from £100), available in For Him, For Her, or Unisex. Once you've found your favourites, you get an exclusive 20% discount code to put towards a 3x100ml bundle - bringing it down to £35.99 - that's £12 per 100ml bottle!
UK orders arrive in 2–3 business days with standard delivery, or 1–2 business days with express via Royal Mail. You'll get a tracking number by email as soon as your order is dispatched.
We also ship to Ireland, the EU, and the US — delivery times and costs vary by country and are shown at checkout.
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.

If you had the og and this, side by side, you may notice a slight difference (and I mean slight), but, if you didn’t or you didn’t know the og, you probably wouldn’t be any wiser. Personally, I think it could be louder with the vanilla. Which, as with the og, is a boozy bourbon type vanilla, not a girly sweetie vanilla. But it’s very close and smells great. For some reason, it was under the men’s section but this is a unisex fragrance. The og is marketed as unisex and it is popular with both sexes, especially women that like that rich, warm, confident slightly masculine but deliciously sexy type of fragrance. I actually got stopped wearing this by a random guy. His words were, “Omg, you smell absolutely, out of this world, incredible!”, and asked what I was wearing so he could buy it for his girlfriend. It is one of those stand out polarising fragrances that people will either absolutely love or hate because it’s not run of the mill, it’s unique, it’s bold and it’s rich. It will hit you with loud oudish patchouli but then soften the blow with a touch of delicious warmth and sweetness from boozy vanilla. It’s an addictive statement fragrance. I personally love it and can’t stop smelling it. I love the og and this is a good stand in for it. Great all year, especially autumn/winter, but not too cloying that you couldn’t wear it on cooler days all year round. On clothes it lasts and lasts and lasts. On skin, it does fade after a few hours. Rich, warm, sexy, bold with just a touch of grown up, delicious sweetness.
Bought number 191 three times because my daughter stole the first one, so i decided to buy two 30 ml with the 4 bundle offer, not sure what the original smells like but this smells amazing and last all day and even stays on my jacket for days that's how my daughter smelled it and when I showed it to her to test and she grabbed it and stole it so that says it all, i will definitely buy again when it runs out.
Ein typischer Duft für den Winter, erinnert an Weihnachten. Er riecht intensiv und hält den ganzen Tag, ich bin von der Qualität wie auch den Düften selber immer wieder aufs Neue begeistert, sie riechen in den meisten Fällen sogar besser als das Original, irgendwie runder und stimmiger!
I bought this fragrance for a dear friend as she absolutely loved it when I wore it!. It’s long lasting and it can still be smelt in your clothes the following day.. I can’t recommend enough, fabulous fragrance, great quality and long lasting at fantastic prices!!!
It’s my new favourite scent!!!..the amount of wonderful compliments I’ve received and women asking where I bought it as been huge of course I let them in on my little secret 🥰…highly recommend this perfume if you like a sweet scent not too strong but also lasts for hours and hours and you can still smell the scent on your clothes the following day!!!…
I've been using Essence Voult for years now and never been disappointed. I even been compared them with OG and they are 99.99 percent same. Received compliments every day and recommended them to my colleagues and friends. I will continue purchasing my favourite perfumes again and again.
