Strong contender

The review

Météore scores 7.0 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Météore.

The Essence Vault sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Météore's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $32 per 100ml it costs 91% less than Météore — the cheapest of 12 twins we can price.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength The Essence Vault publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

Louis Vuitton Météore is mandarin orange, sicilian orange and Calabrian Bergamot at first, tunisian neroli, indonesian nutmeg and pink pepper at its heart and java vetiver at the end. The Essence Vault set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • mandarin orange
  • sicilian orange
  • Calabrian Bergamot

Heart

  • tunisian neroli
  • indonesian nutmeg
  • pink pepper

Base

  • java vetiver
Orange and cardamom streaking over cool vetiver, bright and fast, gone before you finish looking.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
