The Essence Vault Love Don't Be Shy - 112 is an Eau de Parfum. Love Don't Be Shy - 112 opens with Neroli and Orange Blossom, settles into a heart of Rose and Honeysuckle, and dries down to a base of Marshmallow and Amber. The Essence Vault's Love Don't Be Shy - 112 carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

No. 112 mirrors By Kilian's Love Don't Be Shy neroli-marshmallow signature closely, but where the original's marshmallow-orange blossom accord is famous for strong 8-10 hour sillage, this version settles to skin much sooner.

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. 112 takes direct inspiration from By Kilian's Love Don't Be Shy, a fragrance built around a distinctive marshmallow, neroli and orange blossom accord that has become one of the house's most recognisable signatures. The Essence Vault's version opens with the same tender neroli and orange blossom, moving through an innocent honeysuckle-and-rose heart before landing on a soft marshmallow and amber base that captures the addictive, comforting sweetness the original is known for. The gap is in staying power: Love Don't Be Shy is regularly praised for a potent, sweet 'bubble' of sillage that lasts eight to ten hours on skin, while this interpretation projects well for the first hour or two before fading into a much quieter sweet-musk finish. A charming, cozy gourmand floral for intimate evenings, best applied generously given its shorter runtime.
