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.

Customer photo review of Inspired by Terre D' Herm. - 481

A lot of fragrance users judge scents by the opening, projection, compliments and “strength”; but for me, I judge much more by emotional atmosphere, naturalness, whether it feels synthetic/intrusive and how the dry-down sits after hours of exposure. TEV481 is not an ambroxian bomb in a beast mode, and is by far my total favourite out of the entire TEV catalogue and beyond that I use for my own pleasure several times a day everyday.

Customer photo review of Inspired by Terre D' Herm. - 481

My favourite!

Very good fragrance! Intence and spicy. And a special thanks to the Essence Vault team, for their great support in resolving a shipping problem!

Customer photo review of Inspired by Terre D' Herm. - 481

Absolutely wonderful fragrance and identical to the original .. I love the citrus peppery tone to it .. also what I love about the essence vault is that no matter what fragrance you choose, they never get cloying like some of the original scents can do !!

Customer photo review of Inspired by Terre D' Herm. - 481

Customer photo review of Inspired by Terre D' Herm. - 481

Top notch perfume! I’ve been spending a lot of money on the original perfume for years but this is much cheaper! People always ask me where I get my perfume from. Not only does it stay on for a very long time, but it also smells absolutely beautiful! Shipping is fast even during the delays with the pandemic, I’ve ordered more than 4 perfumes already! I’d definitely recommend this lovely company! Don’t wait, just buy!!

Customer photo review of Inspired by Terre D' Herm. - 481

Smells exactly like a sample of the real scent that I had been given. Excellent service, speedy shipping (received a lot sooner than expected, especially considering Covid delays) could not recommend enough!

Bijna 100% zelfde geur en blijft zeker even lang op zitten

Sampler very close to the real thing , although doesn't last. But that's toa be expected at the price point. (In fact , the real thing doesn't last that well either these days). Definitely getting the full size bottle and recommending.

Having bought the three perfumes I was curious to see how essence vault sents would compare... Well guess what they smell the same! And a fraction of the price, my work colleagues keep asking me what I'm wearing?? I informed them but said look for this number and it will bring up the sent. They smell me before they see me lol 😆

After a month-long exploration of dozens of scents, 481 ended up being the clear winner for me by a very long way. A bitter citrus freshness and dry mineral/vetiver. Uplifting, clean and elegant. Never overpowering or “perfumey”. Unlike many modern fragrances that are ambroxan-heavy in the drydown, 481 stayed airy, refined and easy to wear throughout the day. I actually preferred this version to several more “intense” or supposedly more accurate interpretations because this one keeps the composition simple, bright and wearable. It never turns into an aftershave-cabinet or a loud projection monster — just calm and quietly sophisticated. I ended up buying multiple bottles because it became my daily mood-lifter. I keep one by the desk, one by the bed and one in the car.

I really like the earthy scent after it settles. The top notes aren’t for me, but the base is quite nice.

Völlig begeistert! Es riecht tatsächlich Terre sehr ähnlich. Gefühlt hält das Parfüm aber nicht so lange (vielleicht 4 Stunden) das liegt aber an der DNA. Bei anderen von Essence Vault hält es deutlich länger. Trotzdem voll zu empfehlen!! 👍🏻 100% echte Bewertung aus Deutschland 😉👍🏻

Very pleased with this fragrance. Smells amazing and lasts 8+hours

Excellent and long lasting. Just like its ‘reference scent’. Exceptional value. Will order again!

Good parfum. Geur is bijna hetzelfde. Maar geur blijft niet hangen. Paar uurtjes weg

Really nice scent.Will buy again and significantly cheaper than the original.

Not smelt original but this is bang on this has to be my favourite of the range clean fresh smell with good projection without being clawing will be deffo getting again

The fragrances are fantastic, genuinely. Love them and will be buying more. True eau de toilette as well, really long lasting. Well done and thank you!

extremely good cant tell the difference

Smell is not far from the real deal. And even so it is amazing. Only thing is the bottle is not good. Here it could improve. But really a nice product overall.

Exactly like the real deal

Aha, this is what I like! A mature, earthy, woody, male fragrance with good staying power, not overpowering, subtle but definitely present. Td'H has been my airport departures tester over many recent trips, and this from the Vault catches its character closely at a bargain price. Well done TEV.

Nice fresh smell. I like the square shape bottle as it fits in my bag or make up bag easily.

Excellent fragrance, I will be ordering the 100ml in the foreseeable future. Quick delivery service.

Heerlijke geur voor een spotprijs.

Great product…. Smells great. First bottle didn’t spray but customer service was excellent and was resolved quickly. Thanks.

good fragrance and good persistence

This is I always I like, should ask for the intence but this is good for day and night time, another fresh sent 📤 five sprays it's last all-day thanks very essent volt happy customer bazza

Very impressed; I have the original scent and they smell exactly the same but cannot justify their high cost for a daily scent. Will be coming back for more in the future.

Prima Ware blitzschneller Versand super Preis immer wieder gerne beste Grüße T
