Mistake rectified very swiftly

I had placed an order for 3x 100ml bundle of No37 madam (beautiful perfume I must say).
When I received my order last night, I had received 3 x30ml of the perfume instead if 100ml bottles.
I sent an email after receiving the order with proof of everything.
I received an email around 6:30am this morning from waheed apologising for the mistake and rectified my order straight away.
I have already received my tracking for the correct order being sent out and with a quicker postage. I was also informed that I could keep the 3x 30ml bottles that had wrongly been sent out.
Although it’s caused me a little inconvenience, I have to praise waheed for doing her utmost to rectify my order.
I would still recommend The essence vault as some of the perfumes are beautiful and much cheaper than the real thing!

My order had been lost by the courier so I sent a message via the website and had a response the next day from Gareth. He was so quick to let me know what the issue was and some options to resolve it. In the end he arranged for a replacement to be sent express to me. He was very friendly and a huge help so I’m very thankful!

Great fragrances and customer service!! After a delay with my order being delivered I immediately contacted TEV and Peter responded quickly and efficiently. Turns out Evri had 'lost' the parcel. Peter then arranged for my order to be replaced and i received it quickly (by a different courier). Great customer service. I would recommend and will definitely order again.

Kudos to Yaseen from Essent Vault

Kudos to Yaseen from Essent Vault! She was incredibly quick, efficient, and genuinely helpful — a true asset to the company. She definitely deserves a raise or promotion!

I had an issue with a few bottles leaking and the spray not working properly. It seemed like a manufacturing fault because the rest of my bottles were absolutely fine. While the lid caps and sprays aren’t the highest quality, it honestly doesn’t matter to me because the perfumes themselves are affordable, luxurious, and unbelievably long-lasting.

Yaseen went above and beyond. Even when I offered to return the faulty items, they told me to keep them and are sending replacement bottles in the scents I prefer. That level of customer service is rare!

As for the fragrances — they are exact dupes. They smell identical to the originals and are very strong (in a good way!). I tested one on a tissue and after hours it was still going strong. Some people might find them a bit too strong, so I recommend spraying from a little distance.

This is my honest review. I finally purchased after seeing their ads for years, and my only regret is not buying sooner. I’ve wasted so much money on expensive perfume brands when these smell just as good. Plus, they’re cruelty-free and not made from animals, which is a huge bonus.

Highly recommend Essent Vault!

Great products and best of service !

After doing my first order, I was convinced that I would order more. I made two new orders which one of them I did not receive. Gareth looked it up and saw that somewhere in transit the order was lost ... He immediately responded and replaced the order and added one extra bottle for free, for the inconvenience!

Besides the great products, which I can recommend very much, this service is absolutely fabulous!

Gareth thank you for helping out in a great way and until the next order !

Order problem resolved

I ordered for the second time for some Christmas presents after being so impressed with my first order. However my delivery was taking a while to arrive. I contacted Essence Vault and explained the situation and Alix could not have been more helpful. They replied promptly and asked if I wanted a refund or a replacement order, I opted for the replacement order. This was no problem at all and ordered straight away. After this I then received an email from Evri saying they had now received my first order so I emailed Alix back and explained my concerns about now possibly having two of the same order. They didn’t see that as an issue at all and for all the disruption told me to keep both orders as a gesture of goodwill. I will definitely be ordering again, not just because of how good the products are, but due to the care and understanding Alix gave me.
Thank you.

Perfect match to expensive scents and great customer service

I have ordered twice off the Essence Vault and each time it was absolutely seamless. The scents are exactly like the brand they are inspired by and a fraction of the price. Alix was absolutely amazing to deal with and so helpful with assisting me with one of my orders. I will definitely be ordering again.
