The Essence Vault In to You (Male) - 888 is an Eau de Parfum. In to You (Male) - 888 opens with Lemon and Tomato Leaf, settles into a heart of Cacao Pod, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, and Vetiver. The Essence Vault's In to You (Male) - 888 carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

A fair everyday copy of CK IN2U for Him's unusual lemon-tomato-cacao contrast - the green citrus opening is well matched, but like the original, this one runs out of steam within a few hours, only slightly faster.

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.

About

No. 888 picks up on the distinctive lemon-and-tomato-leaf opening that makes CK IN2U for Him stand out from typical mall masculines, delivering the same green, slightly sharp citrus burst in the first half hour. The cacao pod heart brings a soft, powdery warmth that mirrors the original's unexpected sweetness, and the cedar-vetiver-musk base rounds things off in a similarly clean, understated way. Given that the real CK IN2U for Him is already criticised for modest three-to-four hour longevity, this dupe doesn't lose much ground on performance - though the citrus fizz and cacao warmth both settle slightly sooner and quieter than the designer version. A workable, wallet-friendly grab for the specific lemon-cacao combination fans of the original chase.
