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.

This is hands down one of the best aftershaves I’ve purchased in a long time. The Essence Vault has completely nailed the formula here. It has a fantastic, high-quality scent trail that gets noticed for all the right reasons. Exceptional quality, great packaging, and fast delivery. A well-deserved 5 stars!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Easy to order,great price,£5 discount off following order,emails to off advice of best way to store and use on pulse points,scent is great,strong and lasts more than the working day,since ordered 3 100ml scents with a great extra 30% discount
Hat alles reibungslos geklappt mit der Lieferung, das Produkt (Parfüm) 499 ist genau mein Geschmack, sehr intensiv, sehr langanhaltend , und auf Kleidung richt es noch am nächsten Tag, aber Flecken , sind aber nicht aufgetreten.
Zum Vergleich wie es zum Original Parfüm richt kann ich nix sagen, da ich es noch nie gerochen habe. Bin aber von diesem Duft sehr angetan und sehr zu frieden damit, würde es wieder kaufen.
So much more than just a perfume bottle.
I have have ordered just this one in particular to test it and it blew my mind.
I’ve been chasing this perfume “hombre nomade” since forever but I couldn’t afford paying few hundreds on an original one.
I’m sure the original doesn’t last 2 days even after shower either😀
You guys have my heart and more orders to come in the future.
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.
I ordered for myself after smelling this perfume on my daughter. I have not bee disappointed. It smells beautiful and it's small enough to pop in my handbag for all occasions. The fragrance lasts all day. Will definitely be ordering more.
This fragrance from essence vault is absolutely amazing. I spray it on in the morning and the smell
Is still on me when I get home in the evening, definitely worth the money and smells stunning.
Honestly it is worth every penny to have any types of parfume from this company. I purchased 4 items during Christmas and all very satisfaction. The smell of the parfumes are very long-lasting even with little bit spray. It lasts not only few hour with this item but days. I sprayed only twice on my pyjamas on New Year's Eve just for testing how long it will last. Today 4th Jan I put on same pyjamas but cannot believe it the smell is still around. Amazing and perfect smell, superb purchased, cheap but very quality products which it made valuable for money and received a lot of compliment.
I am pleased and so happy with The Essence Vault and will come back for further purchase.
Smells very nice and last long. Had lots of compliments and long hugs 🤗 😀. Loving it. Buying another bottle and other fragrances. Highly recommend to everyone. You won’t regret, trust me
Oh lord!!! As soon as this arrived I had to spray some all over me. WOW this is worth every penny! The power of that aftershave alone with the longevity. Whoever owns essence vault you are an absolute legend! Highly recommended!
