The review
Strong contender. That is where Princess lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Princess.
The Essence Vault sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Princess's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $51 per 100ml it costs 81% less than Princess — the cheapest of 10 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
What it is chasing: bergamot and neroli up top, orange blossom and marshmallow in the middle, vanilla, musk and Tonka Bean underneath — the shape of By Kilian Princess.
Top
- bergamot
- neroli
Heart
- orange blossom
- marshmallow
Base
- vanilla
- musk
- Tonka Bean
Fizzy neroli over marshmallow vanilla, sunny and sugared without tipping into cloying.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
