Frequently Asked Questions

Expertly blended in the UK. Unbeatable longevity. No designer markups.

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.

For most people, yes. You need fewer sprays for the same effect, so a bottle tends to go further despite the higher price. One or two sprays is usually enough for all-day wear.

It is the same fragrance profile as our core Eau de Parfum, with more depth and more staying power.

Most people get 8 hours or more from the Intense range on skin, compared with 6 to 8 hours from our standard Eau de Parfums. That is usually enough to carry through a full day and into the evening without reapplying. On clothes, the scent often lasts longer again.

As with any fragrance this varies with your skin type and where you apply it. Pulse points, meaning the wrists, neck and inner elbow, give the best longevity because body heat helps project the scent.

One or two is enough for most people, sometimes just one. This catches people out if they are used to applying an Eau de Toilette more liberally, because the Intense range projects further and lasts longer per spray.

Start with one, give it a few minutes to settle on your skin, then add a second if you want more presence. Over-applying is easy to do and hard to undo.

The same fragrance profile, but not identical in character. The opening is less sharp, and the heart and base notes come through more prominently from the start.

Most people describe the Intense as richer and smoother than the standard version rather than simply louder. If you already know and like the Eau de Parfum, you will recognise it immediately. It just feels more settled.

It can, if applied directly to fabric at close range. That is true of any fragrance.

We would recommend spraying onto skin rather than clothes. Pulse points on the wrists, neck and inner elbow are best, as body heat helps project the scent naturally. If you do want to spray onto clothing, hold the bottle 6 to 8 inches away to reduce the chance of residue marking the fabric.

Dark or delicate fabrics are the most susceptible.

Yes, and you can try it properly first. We know you need to wear a fragrance to tell whether it suits you, so a few test sprays are absolutely fine.

If it is not what you hoped for, return it within 30 days of delivery for a full refund or exchange. We just ask that the bottle has not been heavily used and comes back in its original packaging.

Yes. Every bottle in the Intense range is 100% vegan and cruelty-free, and blended in the UK, exactly like the rest of our range.

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.

Customer photo review of Inspired by Portrait of a Lady - 565 - Intense

I was skeptical about this one but I thought, why not and let’s try it! Turns out I like it a lot! Very strong, fresh, rosy in the beginning but then it cools down, fit younger people up until 40 I guess! U need to try it to understand what I’m saying! Great value

I am ABSOLUTELY in love with this fragrance. I had no idea what Portrait of a Lady smelt like, but just like to try new fragrances so only purchased a 50ml, but will definitely be buying the 100ml. I just don't think anyone could not like this beautiful perfume!

I think this is a really good likeness to Portrait of a Lady. I paid a bit more for the intense version but don’t have anything to compare it to. However I’m really pleased. The scent last all day.

Well what an amazing copy! I can honestly say that I have had so many compliments and people recognising I'm wearing portrait of a lady? Until I tell them its essence vault! It lasts all day. Highly recommended this perfume and company. (Only thing I would say is you need to allow the scent to settle)

Love the scent it’s based on but £290 a bottle is insane so this is an excellent compromise.I always get compliments when I wear it,it’s very strong so not for the faint hearted.

I have bought several of their fragrances because they are fantastic for cost effective daily use. This one however, is my absolute favourite and will also be used for special occasions.

The 565 Intense is a perfect replica of Portrait of a Lady. It stays on all day, on your clothes for several days. I am absolutely in love with this version and when it runs out will be getting the biggest one. I'm so pleased I finally have it after years of wanting it. Never stop doing it!

Shiraz E. 5/5 Verified

Tried this on the off chance, I hadn't even smelt it before. Amazing scent, the intense version lasts all day. I wear it when I go out, when I'm in and when I'm in bed!! Always get asked what perfume I'm wearing, so many compliments. Thankyou TEV. ♥️

Karen H. 5/5 Verified

Inspired by Portrait of a Lady - 565 - Intense

I absolutely love PoL. I own the original, but like with most of my TEV scents, I got the inspired version for everyday use. Honestly, this one stands out the most. Both the strength and how close it smells to the original are seriously impressive. The longevity is insane too. Even after washing, changing my pillowcase, everything, the scent just would not go away. It really sticks. And this isn’t even the intense version, which makes it even better. I’m genuinely so happy with this purchase.

Damla S. 5/5 Verified

Amazing fragrance! I haven't smelt the original at over £200, but this suits me fine. I got the intense version, it lasts all day (and night), always asked what it is whenever I wear it. Congratulations TEV ♥️
