9PM - 610

Name: 9PM - 610 Eau de Parfum
Brand: The Essence Vault

The Essence Vault 9PM - 610 is an Eau de Parfum. 9PM - 610 opens with Bergamot, Cinnamon, and Apple, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom and Lavender, and dries down to a base of Amber, Vanilla, and Tonka Bean. The Essence Vault's 9PM - 610 carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

No. 610 chases Afnan 9pm's apple-cinnamon-vanilla clubbing signature and nails the loud, candy-sweet opening almost note-for-note, but the amber-vanilla base is noticeably thinner and collapses to a simple sweet musk long before the original's famously room-filling trail gives out.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Best Seasons

Best For:

Fall Winter

The sweet, warm apple-cinnamon-amber profile suits cold-weather evenings best; too heavy and sugary for hot summer days.

Date

Also Works:

Casual

Its loud, seductive sweetness is built for nights out and dates; far too much for the office or a formal setting.

About

The Essence Vault's No. 610 goes straight for Afnan 9pm's crowd-pleasing, TikTok-famous opening: a mouth-watering hit of crisp apple and bergamot electrified by warm cinnamon, and honestly it's one of the closer top-note matches in the dupe-house category - spray it next to the original and the first five minutes are hard to tell apart. The heart softens into orange blossom and lavender, adding a touch of aromatic freshness that tempers the initial sweetness, much as 9pm does before it swells into its signature amber-vanilla drydown. That drydown is where the two part ways: 9pm is known for a dense, almost syrupy vanilla-tonka-amber base that projects for hours and clings to clothing well into the next day, while No. 610's base is a lighter, more conventional sweet vanilla that's pleasant but forgettable, fading to skin scent within a few hours rather than the original's marathon performance. As a cheap way to get 9pm's loud, confident opening for a night out without committing to the full bottle, it's a genuinely fun budget option - just don't expect it to survive the whole evening.
