The review

Pure Poison scores 5.6 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Pure Poison.

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

At $51 per 100ml it costs 56% less than Pure Poison — the 3rd cheapest of 9 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

Dior Pure Poison is bergamot, orange and mandarin orange at first, gardenia, jasmine and orange blossom at its heart and sandalwood, amber and white musk at the end. The Essence Vault set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • gardenia

  • white musk
Crisp gardenia and jasmine over sandalwood, the bright, polished Poison.

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