Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Seychelles EDT
Seychelles by The White Company offers a fresh and tropical escape in a bottle. Ideal for casual wear, its blend of notes transports you to sun-soaked beaches.
Statement
Our Verdict - Seychelles - 472 EDP
The Essence Vault's No. 472 goes after The White Company's Seychelles, a coconut-and-bergamot solar floral. The dupe gets the creamy coconut opening right but the tiare and vanilla dry-down feels thinner and more one-note, fading to little more than a light musk within a couple of hours.
