That is the reason why I was never willing to try it out as I thought it'll trigger my migraine and would be too cloying.

I own both the original and the extrait. Before I got these I owned all of their clones. I must sadly say that I´m a bit dissapointed by both. Maybe I´m a bit anosmic to them. I smell them when I apply and then get whiffs thoughout all the day and night. I think the original is close to Cloud and extrait is closer to Manceras Instant crush. Both instant crush and cloud has an eternal longevity and beast mode silage on me. Baccarat is more subtle and quiet. More refined and exclusive…and way more expensive. Maybe the hype and therefore my expectations were way up in the sky. I´m happy I finally got the real deal…but I´ll spend my money on cloud and Instant crush for future references. I´ll enjoy every drop in the bottles as long as they last. There is something so luxurious and special about having the original. Bottles are beautiful and the scent is magical. If you've fallen for it head over heels then you should get it. I always recommend to save up and get what you've fallen for instead of choosing a similar one to save money. You'll always be craving the one you truly want so it's better to be patient and get your love and not settle. Really good stuff off my skin it’s like a nice sweet clean almond smell, almost makes me think of cherry and the red bottle matches the vibe it gives. The dry down is heavenly. It’s light yet its presence is known, it kinda makes my mouth water a little. I’d be very careful in the trigger. I don’t think you need more than 3-4 sprays of this.Likely due to the stellar price, younger folk aren’t going around wearing this. As such, the only times I’ve smelled it have been on older women. I strongly don’t believe the scent itself is dated, but due to being a younger guy who only smells this on 35+ yo, I just naturally associate this dna with older groups. That isn’t a negative remark, but rather an observation. I did share my decant with people of various ages, and the results were very interesting. It was too ‘old and stuffy’ for the girls my age (22), but on anyone with a little more years, their eyes would open wide, and go “what is that!??” in a very good way. I also might note that I haven’t smelled any cheap clones of this that did enough justice to this Extrait. If you love it, just save up and buy the real deal.

I read once how this a fragrance of the high-earning, immaculately dressed, deeply fatigued London elite, how it hangs in the air of the Zone 1 Underground. And wow how fitting! Uniqueness: 10.0 (I cannot think of any other to compare it besides the EDP version. As far as clones are concerned there is currently a myriad of them)Overrated and not at all unisex...way too much feminine. Can not imagine a man wearing it but understand individual preferences.

The scent lasts long and leans masculine in my opinion. The Essence Vault are not to be confused with originals and we have no affiliation with the manufacturers of these unnamed designer brands. Lasts forever on clothes - holy Molly i wore this 2 sundays ago - projeted very well, superb sillage and lasted all day. Funny thing is, i put my sweater in the closet and never wore it again until today, and guess what? It still smells like BR540, and not just a weak, barely noticeable scent either. This thing is truly an amazing performer and an amazing scent - definitely a compliment-getter and attention-grabber. I tried and couldn't stop smelling myself, my boyfriend was so obsessed by the smell that he insisted of trying it himself as well. I know it has a similar scent profile to many perfume but none of them are real dupes in my opinion. It really does have an addicting power. I am amongst the ones who only get spun, caramelised almond sugar. No fishy smell, and I love the medicinal note of the saffron in the eau the Parfum.
