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.

Sehr sehr schöner Duft, finde nur es hält nicht den ganzen Tag

Heerlijk luchtje! Blijft ook super lang hangen.. Ondanks dat ik hem dagelijks gebruik gaat hij niet snel leeg. Het enige minpuntje was wel de levertijd, dit duurde echt wel wat lang

Such a gorgeous scent that I straight away got a compliment first time wearing it asking what perfume I have on and that it was unique✨

Customer photo review of Inspired by Olympea - 12

Ich habe mir die Düfte 999 und 12 bestellt und bin wirklich positiv überrascht. Ehrlich gesagt habe ich nicht erwartet, dass sie so intensiv und gleichzeitig so angenehm riechen. Mir ist es auch völlig egal, ob sie exakt einem Originalduft entsprechen – der Duft an sich ist einfach wunderschön. Beide sind sehr feminin, weich und genau nach meinem Geschmack. Ich trage sie seit ein paar Tagen durchgehend und nehme den Duft selbst immer wieder wahr, was mir total gefällt. Für mich definitiv ein richtig gelungener Kauf.

This perfume is AMAZING - I love Olympea but I can just never bring myself to spend over £80 on a perfume, but this smells EXACTLY the same and lasts just as long! And it’s sooooo much cheaper for a larger bottle too! Win win win 😍

Will need to buy some more soon,so many people people have commented how nice i smell and have asked what is it. I am loving it as it lasts so long I was very surprised. I smelt this 12 perfume on my friend at Christmas and quickly ordered it the next day. My dentist asked what I was wearing yesterday took down all the details and was ordering as I left.

I was walking through the tube station & this young girl was sitting in the chair, as I walked passed her, I took a Whif of her scent, I approached her & asked what she was wearing & she pulled it out of her bag & told me to take a picture of it. It was No 12 from The Essence Vault, I thanked her & once I got home I bought it. Absolutely beautiful fragrance, now I turn heads when I wear it 💝

Omg this one is absolutely unreal! This is my 2nd purchase from The Essence Vault and I’m absolutely chuffed with how lush they smell. The 2 I’ve had so far smell exactly like the originals but even if they didn’t the scents are so nice and long lasting I wouldn’t care anyway. Not a chance will I be paying nearly £100 for perfume again
