Eden Sparkling Lychee - 151

The Essence Vault's No. 151 is built to echo Kayali's Eden Sparkling Lychee, the fruity-floral that opens on juicy lychee, tart blackcurrant and crisp red apple before settling into a jasmine-rose-violet heart. The dupe follows that structure closely and gets the fruity brightness across well in the first hour, landing a similarly playful, sun-drenched opening. Where it falls short is the base: Kayali finishes on a layered sugar-vanilla-musk-sandalwood-cedar combination that gives real depth and a soft, lingering trail, while No. 151 settles for a simpler sugared-amber-and-musk finish that thins out noticeably faster. The floral heart is also a touch less refined, with the violet and rose reading more candied than the original's more natural-feeling blend. It's a fair, wearable stand-in for casual summer days and light dates when the mood calls for something fruity and upbeat, but it won't match the original's longevity or the polish of its floral core.
