Customer Reviews
Overall rating: 4.9 / 5 from 1067 reviews.
A truly unique and distinctive scent, not easy to describe. Elegant, yet warm, cosy and sensual, mysterious and alluring, yet somehow familiar and comforting. To me, it’s a fragrance you can genuinely fall in love with. It’s impossible to fully explain, you simply have to smell it.
At first, I have to admit that I was a little hesitant, as this was my first time buying an indie fragrance. The 3 × 100ml perfume set was such a good deal, though, that I thought, why not? So I decided to give it a try. The delivery was quick and the package was delivered directly to my mailbox. I bought fragrances 421, 417, and 186, and I tried them immediately after they arrived. I instantly fell in love with 186 and 421. The scents are very natural and gender-neutral. 186 is woody and elegant. It smells like a forest after the rain, with subtle hints of roses hidden in the background. The scent feels warm, mysterious, and sophisticated. 421 is also woody, but I would describe it as fresher and more minty. Compared with 186, it has a cooler tone. I can easily imagine wearing it every day, or even keeping it in the office for a quick refresh during the day. 417 is a much more feminine scent. It smells like you've just stepped out of a luxurious shower: clean, fresh, and sweet. I used to own J'adore, and while I wouldn't say 417 smells exactly like it, it has a similarly elegant and feminine vibe. It still smells very lekker! Overall, I would strongly recommend 421 and 186 for everyday use. 417 is quite sweet and feminine, so it's not really my personal style. I haven't tested how long the fragrances last yet, but so far, I'm very happy with my purchase and think the set offers great value for money.
444,186 and 461 tried and I'm in love with them they're exceptional 😍
The scent is wonderful and lasts for a long time. It is truly amazing. I highly recommend it. The delivery is fast and the service is very good. I am very grateful. Thank you, thank you very much. I am happy about that.
Love all my perfume's from the essence vault 😊 but my all time favourite is halfeti & B Berry Goddess ✨ wow they are amazing.
I have been an essence customer for years best decision ever .My favourites are 144,417,186
This perfume is my NEW FAVOURITE 😍 💕 💓 💛 💗.
I love the smell of both of these. They are so like the original ones and the smell lasts a long time
It is absolutely beautiful, it brings me so much joy! It smells exactly like the original. I got a few of them and this one is my favourite by far.
Absolutely gorgeous perfume, very clean and crisp and just like it's very, very expensive rival
Love it. Just what I wanted. Lasts so well and I have had lots of comments too
I just love my purchases of halfetti and ombré . I get so many comments and have recommended so many friends
A handbag staple, fantastic perfume for the price. Always get lovely comments, gorgeous scent.
A huge fan of the extravagantly priced Halfeti (£95 for 30ml) I thought I’d give the Essence Vault version a go (£15.95 for 30ml). Wow - what a revelation and a wise investment! It’s such a similar scent, maybe just a fraction sweeter on the tobacco base note, and a delight to wear. Lasts well, and has been much admired. Will definitely purchase again.
About to run out of the real thing. 186 is exactly the same! Has really good lasting qualities and when it does fade (after several hours) it leaves a lovely warm spicy scent. Highly recommend.
I love this scent it's gorgeous for a 10th of the original price of a scent it smells like
Smells so much like the real thing without spending nearly £200! Lasts literally all day and have had loads of compliments! Now just to pick which one I want next!
1 of the 3 set i buy! The smell is amazing ❤️ excited to wear 82 and 37 ❤️❤️❤️
I just love Halfeti ordered numerous times for myself and my 2 daughters. The scent is like nothing I know of its long lasting and always get asked "oo what perfume you wearing" it's just gorgeous thank you The Essence Vault.
So many compliments from people while wearing this spray, definitely recommend! Strong scent and lasts all day and longer!
Fantastic smells like the real thing have a bottle at home and one in my bag get so many compliments when I am wearing it thanku ❤️
Most amazing scent. Exactly like the real thing! So many comments. Will be purchasing again!
Lovely perfumes at a great value. Ordered 186, smells so much like the original scent at an unbeatable price. Love it !
Unbelievable fragrance - I have the original Halfeti and honestly it’s a perfect match! Love it and recommend 100% :-)
Very fast delivery. I have several Penhaligans perfumes and love them but I was looking for a cheaper alternative to wear daily and save original for going out. 186 is perfect copy of halffeti. Would order again.
Loverly smell lasts for ages nice 1
Loved Halfeti, love this one. A quick single squirt isn’t at all overwhelming but lasts all day.
All I can say is . Absolutely fantastic and highly recommended. I kept of buying one after another
Never bought Halfeti myself so can't comment on the similarities, however the smell is amazing! Myself and my partner love it. It's incredibly long lasting too - can still be smelt after a full day's work. Great product and so cheap.
So, I have some actual Halfeti at home and tried these side by side and I have to say, I'm very impressed! This is a very close copy and smells great. It also lasts a decent amount of time. Very pleased and will buy again.
This is absolutely stunning!!!!! Had so many compliments whilst wearing it. Definitely would recommend 👌. Had my order within days, easy to use website even for me a computer novice 🤣. Thankyou sooooo much. X
Love the smell and people at work were asking me about it and where did I get it from
So nice,sweet, almost coconutty but still masculine.
Amazing!! Although I'm just a little bit obsessed with essence vault (see photo) 186 is amazing, cannot tell the difference between the two. That being said, it's the same for all fragrances, I will never buy the "real deal" again. I should be on commission, genuinely I get comments no matter what I'm wearing... fragrancewise ❤️❤️❤️
I love it that much I’ve used pretty much the whole bottle in a week, I spray it on anything and everything anytime I get a chance.. even spraying on on random people to get compliments on how it smells. My clothes smell of it I smell of it. I’m literally like a pig in shit with it 🤣 it’s great thank you
I chose 186. For it's citrus contents. But so happy with the added flower and spices which I wasn't quite sure about, but they blend into much nicer fragrance also got 286, and 490 as they last so long they don't clash if worn together.
Love this... last and smells like the original .
Absolutely love this scent 💜🤗 It honestly smells like Halfeti , I highly recommend this product.. give it a try, you won't be disappointed!
Great fragrance, would definitely recommend adding this to your collection
