Which Should You Buy?
Our Verdict - Eros Eau de Parfum
The Essence Vault's interpretation of Versace's Eros (2012) - Aurelien Guichard's mint-tonka-vanilla bestseller that became a club-and-date masculine staple, here translated into a budget reading with the mint-tonka-vanilla spine still legible. Honest dupe-fidelity for evening and date wear.
Our Verdict - Phantom Eau de Parfum
The Essence Vault's interpretation of Paco Rabanne's Phantom (2021) - Quentin Bisch, Loc Dong and Dominique Ropion's lavender-vanilla-rosemary fresh-fougere built for the robot-bottle era, here translated into a budget reading with the lavender-rosemary-vanilla spine still legible. Honest dupe-fidelity for casual-day and office wear.
