The Essence Vault Perfect - 813 is an Eau de Parfum. Perfect - 813 opens with Rhubarb and Narcissus, settles into a heart of Almond, and dries down to a base of Cedar and Cashmeran. The Essence Vault's Perfect - 813 carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Inspired by Marc Jacobs Perfect, No. 813 keeps the tangy rhubarb-almond milk idea intact but the creamy heart reads thinner and less comforting, missing the plush cashmeran-cedar dry-down that makes the designer original feel so cosy.

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. 813 opens with a bright, tangy rhubarb note paired with sunny daffodil, doing a fair job of recreating Marc Jacobs Perfect's cheerful, slightly tart introduction. The heart settles into a soft, creamy almond milk accord that is the most recognisable part of the composition, though it feels a touch thinner and less enveloping than the original's plush texture. The base brings cashmeran for warmth and gentle woodiness, but it lacks the cosy, skin-hugging depth that makes the designer version such a comforting everyday scent. Performance is modest - pleasant and soft for the first couple of hours before fading to barely-there, well short of the all-day comfort the original is known for. It is a nice, easygoing take on the rhubarb-and-almond-milk gourmand-floral idea for casual daytime wear, though it does not carry the same lasting warmth.
