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.

Had so many compliments and they last so long!
“Absolutely in love with all the perfumes I purchased! I had to go back for more. I originally ordered the 3 x 100ml bundle and then got six more. So, so happy!”

Customer Reviews
Overall rating: 4.9 / 5 from 552 reviews.
I believe I'm experiencing the best long-term business relationship of my life with TEV. About two years ago, I came across the company through an Instagram ad, placed an order, and was completely satisfied. Delivery to Germany was quick, the fragrances were immediately appealing and long-lasting. So I ordered again, this time more, and once again everything was to my complete satisfaction. Now, with my seventh order, one fragrance was missing. The support team responded immediately, even over the weekend, and sent a replacement along with a small apology. Without exaggeration, I can say that I've never been such a loyal customer of a company in my life and have practically never been disappointed. Keep up the great work, you guys are doing a fantastic job!
Two fragrances were for my husband and he loved them. Poison was for me as I wore it many years ago, and still love the smell. Well worth the money I will order again.
My wife got me the set of 3 100ml deal! Sauvage, Aventus and Gentleman and they are absolutely amazing! The scent lasts for more than a day as advertised! And smells like the real deal! Perfect!
Absolutely stunning. I had already tried this fragrance from TEV, but I bought the 5 30ml bundle, and it came in that. I use the original as well, but this I think is nicer, perhaps not as long lasting, but for the price, who cares, it’s smells beautiful. And yes I am a female, but honestly there’s men’s fragrances, that I think can pass as unisex, and this is one of them.
Thank you for the price, and fabulous delivery oxoxo
Love the smell of this, I first got the 30ml the likeness to the real thing is unbelievable so I bought the 100ml also, saving me a canny penny or two !
What a fantastic parfum...smells exactly the sane as the original and lasts longer, put it on around 2pm was out all-night and I could still smell it on me the following day! This is my 6th purchase from this amazing company and I won't be buying from anywhere else from now on Essence Vault are the leaders in parfum for men and woman 10/10 Guys and Gals well done for creating this amazing company 👌❤️
Smells exactly like b bottled, I woke up and could still smell it which is amazing. And they’re very generous as you can see in the photo, the bottle comes full to the top. I will be shopping here again.
First time buying from yourselves as was recommended, and I must say I'm very impressed and will definitely be back I brought the 30ml bottles and now I wish I had got the 100ml ones but now I know how good they are I will be getting the bigger ones
I am a female but I really like some male scents (well it is the 21st century ha ha) so I bought this as I remembered really liking it on my high school sweetheart all them years ago. I have to say that this brand is no different to the real thing and I was pleasantly surprised. It’s nostalgia that we cannot put a price on and this scent takes me back all them years, so thank you and I do highly recommend this scent and brand. Krystal.
Thought I’d try The Essence Vault as the prices were very reasonable. Was completely taken back by how good the fragrance was. I will never go back to pricey brands that cost the earth, the EV has me covered!
We absolutely love the perfumes! No. 200, 209 and 17 have a great scent. Both me and my fiancé are in love with the smell of the perfumes. Will definitely order more as soon as the bottles run low.
209 is a MUST HAVE! it’s that kind of scent if you’re wearing everyone wants to know what it is. Received so many compliments!
Smelling good is a top tier compliment so go get yourself a bottle you won’t regret it!
