Myself - 465

Name: Myself - 465 Eau de Parfum
Brand: The Essence Vault

The Essence Vault Myself - 465 is an Eau de Parfum. Myself - 465 opens with Bergamot, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, and dries down to a base of Patchouli and Ambroxan. The Essence Vault's Myself - 465 carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Inspired by YSL's MYSLF, No. 465 recreates the bergamot-orange blossom-patchouli chassis well enough for the price, but the Ambroxan and woody base come through flatter and less radiant, missing the original's polished, chameleon-like finesse.

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. 465 opens with a bright, energising burst of bergamot that immediately signals the modern-masculine territory of YSL's MYSLF, before an orange blossom heart brings in the clean-yet-sensual floral twist the original is celebrated for. This transition is handled reasonably well here, though it lacks some of the real thing's remarkable finesse in how the citrus and floral notes interlock. The base leans on patchouli and Ambroxan for a contrasted, textured woody-warm finish, aiming for that sleek, enduring trail MYSLF is known for, but the drydown reads a touch flatter and less radiant, with the Ambroxan sitting more as a generic warm-woody backdrop than the layered depth of the designer version. Performance is respectable for a budget scent, hitting several hours of wear, though it doesn't quite match the 7-9 hour staying power reviewers report for the original. A solid, wearable everyday option for anyone drawn to the fresh-citrus-meets-warm-woods idea without needing the exact YSL execution.
