Frequently Asked Questions
Expertly blended in the UK. Unbeatable longevity. No designer markups.
We’ve spent years perfecting our formulas to capture the character and "DNA" of the world’s most iconic scents. While no two fragrances are ever 100% identical due to different ingredient sources, about 97% of our community tell us they can’t tell the difference.
We focus on the notes that matter most—the ones that linger on your skin and get you noticed.
It’s a fair question! The "big" brands spend a fortune on celebrity ambassadors, primetime TV ads, and custom-molded glass bottles.
We decided to skip all of that. By using standardised, minimalist bottles and focusing our budget entirely on high-quality oils and perfumer’s alcohol, we can offer the same olfactory experience without the "luxury" markup.
Longevity is a top priority for us. We formulate our scents as Eau de Parfum (EDP) or Parfum concentrations, which contain a higher percentage of fragrance oils than a standard Eau de Toilette.
While everyone’s skin chemistry is different, our scents are designed to provide a strong "scent trail" and last through a standard workday or evening out.
We know that buying fragrance online can feel like a gamble. That’s why we offer a straightforward return policy. If you spray your bottle and realise it’s not quite what you expected, you can return it to us within 30 days for a swap or a refund.
We want you to find a scent you genuinely love wearing.
Yes. We use high-quality, industry-standard ingredients, and all our products are fully compliant with safety regulations.
However, because fragrance contains allergens (even natural ones), we always recommend a quick "patch test" on your wrist before a full application if you have very sensitive skin.
Never. We are 100% cruelty-free and our formulas are vegan-friendly. We believe you should be able to smell incredible without any compromise on your values.
We aim to get your new favourite scent to you as fast as possible!
Most orders are dispatched within 24 hours. Once it leaves us, you can usually expect your parcel at your door within 2–3 working days.
You’ll get a tracking link the moment it’s on its way so you can keep an eye on its progress.

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.

These perfumes smell just like the real thing
“Trust me when I say these perfumes smell just like the real thing. They also last a very long time - one spray in the morning, and I can still smell it at bedtime! I 100% recommend them!”

Had so many compliments and they last so long!
“Absolutely in love with all the perfumes I purchased! I had to go back for more. I originally ordered the 3 x 100ml bundle and then got six more. So, so happy!”

I bought this as a mystery fragrance, and oh my god it was such a pleasant surprise, thought I wasted those 18 euros, but for sure it didn't, I like it way more than the perfume I purposely bought, and it actually lasts for good time, then my wife loved it on me, it's just different than any fragrance I smelled.
Perfume 472, thanks guys!
Got this as a mystery perfume and was worth it. It came as the black opium and Smells exactly like the original and lasts long. Definitely recommend 👌 👍
This about the 2nd time I am taking a chance on mystery perfume and both turned out to be very good perfumes.Have actually now purchased on my own the same perfume.Each time i purchase a perfume,I will always go for the Mystery perfume in addition.
A very positive experience. I highly recommend the Essence Vault. If you're looking for a quality fragrance, with longevity and great value, then try Essence Vault
I took a chance and purchased a mystery perfume and it didn't disappoint! It's so lovely and I have received compliments wearing it. It is number 82. A very happy customer here. Thank you :)
I received this "mystery perfume" at a discount price, alongside two scented candles I purchased. I couldn't be happier with the fragrance, turned out it was Lady Million, and smells absolutely gorgeous and lasts all day and beyond!!
Gorgeous smelling and great price too. Cannot recommend this company enough. The fragrances are always long lasting and a fraction of the original price❤️
Mystery perfume was even more perfect than the samples I ordered along with it.
I have found the perfect scent
I wouldn't have gone for it on my own so I'm extremely happy I took the chance.
I gave in and ordered the mystery bottle when ordering something for my partner. It smells lovely.
But, my daughter got the mystery bottle also and gave it to me so now I have 2x 100ml bottles of the same perfume. Thats not a bad thing though it smells gorgeous
Mystery unisex scent it's very strong for me but my son absolutely loves it. I may think it's strong but still smelt really good.
It does what your other scents do and that it lasts all day.
Highly recommended
