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.

Great bundle as an alternative to buying three large bottles of perfume. I love the perfume for everyday use. It really does smell like the real version (I have both). The diffuser and candle smell lovely and the car perfume was a really great bonus!! I know I will be back for more when I run out
I've been using this company now for years - I am obsessed with 444 and also when I wear 459 I have been stopped in the street about 5 times and asked what I'm wearing! Love love love the perfumes and they last for ages!
Really like the perfumes, I never buy actual perfume now to save on cost and I always get compliments on how good I smell which is great! Recommended to loads of people at work!
I bought 3 Fragrances 74,547 and 463.
It was my first time buying 547 and 463.
This 2 scents are perfect for any occasions.
I got so much complements again at work and bought it again recently. The fact that the 3 fragrances all lasted for the whole day and even the next day is Amazing 👍🏾
I Love ittttt
Thanks Connor 👏🏾👏🏾
This perfume exceeded my expectations. The fragrance is smooth, not too strong but noticeable, and it lasts almost the whole day. Perfect for daily use or special occasions. Definitely worth buying again.
Amazing perfume set, each one is potent enough to last all day and sometimes all night 🥰 gorgeous scents & each one has unique scent too which i love (they are all close enough to the real designer perfumes) 10/10 by far the best perfumes & i will continue to be a loyal customer for sure! ❤️
I seen an ad on instagram for these perfumes, I thought “why not?”. I got so many compliments, they smell just like the real thing and they last ALL DAY. I’m spraying before my 9h shift and when I get home even after sweating I still smell amazing.
I absolutely love these perfumes, i get so many compliments 😊 and they last so long. I've been using The Essence Vault for over 8 years, I'll never spend so much money for genuine perfumes ever.
The scent, performance, accuracy all make the perfumes brilliant.
The bottle is not the strongest though but, that is fair for such a great price.
The lost cherry one which i have is a calm not too sweet but, bold cherry scent, it ends fume like. I have got a few bundles and the scent stays on my skin most of the sunlight hours in the day.
The Myrrh and tonka one is also bold and warmer.
Been purchasing with The Essence Vault for a while now and I am finally able to get the BOGOF deal. I love all the fragrances. Strong, long lasting and better.

A very nice perfume with a truly long-lasting fragrance. The scent is smooth, captivating, and leaves a memorable trail. It stays fresh on the skin for hours and smells even better as time passes. Definitely a must-have for anyone who loves long-wearing perfumes.
I have been buying EV scents since 2022 and that’s all I’ve ever used since!! I love the two for one deal!! Their fragrances are long lasting. I thought 444 was my favourite until I tried 609!!!! Gorgeous gorgeous stuff! You won’t regret buying them!!!
Brilliant service,have been having their fragrances for years ,last all day with loads of comments how nice they are ,and at these prices you can have your pick and smell amazing without breaking the bank.
I absolutely love these products. Smell
Amazing and the smell last till the next morning. Amazing price and such fast delivery service. Will go nowhere else from now on.
Absolutely love the fragrances from this company. The smell lasts most of the day , and the compliments I receive from colleagues loving the smell. My particular favourite is Lime Basil and Mandarin. And on top of that they are great value too. Fast delivery and well packaged. What more could you ask for. Great company and great products.
The Essence Vault has truly impressed me with the quality and longevity of their fragrances. Every scent feels thoughtfully crafted, rich, and beautifully balanced. I love how their perfumes not only smell luxurious but also last throughout the day without being overpowering. It’s clear that a lot of care goes into each bottle, and it shows. They’ve quickly become one of my favourite perfume brands.
I have been using the perfumes from The Essence Vault for a number of years and have received quite a few compliments. It lasts all day and is definitely value for money. I would definitely recommend them. The service provided is excellent and once the order goes through it only takes a few days to receive my order.
Omg ,I’m in love with them,
Delivery took around 7 days.
I wasn’t expecting them being honest,but after they came today I totally made the right choice,
They last too.
Congratulations to the ones who decided to make this brand so that everyone can use the scents of good perfumes too.
I honestly can't say enough about this company - I've been using them for years now and I have recommend loads of friends to them as well! I have found my own signature sent (19) and I've become practiced in the art of 'layering' my scents - my 19 goes very well with Vanilla S#x and I get asked what I'm wearing all the time! One of my favorite past times is going to department stores and comparing the brand names to mine - I found the original Lost Cherry far too heavy and much prefer mine! If you aren't sure the 'sample' sizes are excellent for helping you to decide - go for it you won't want to go back!!
