This is a good value set if you can get your hands on it! But be aware that the product sizes in this set are smaller than the regular sizes (150ml vs. 125ml for the essence, 40ml vs. 50ml for the ampoule etc.). Also, the packaging is different. These all come in plastic containers whereas I know the regular essence is in a glass container. Doesn't bother me too much as it makes it lighter and less fragile to travel with BUT some people dislike plastic packaging so just be aware. Definitely not as luxurious feeling but given the $$ you save if you bought all these separately (even after converting the smaller amounts), it's worth it.
