Review: Nishane Ani – Everything You Need To Know

Ani.

A quality vanillic winter fragrance.

Nishane Ani was released in 2019. It is based on spices, vanilla, and wood. It lasts eight hours on the skin with moderate projection. In this review, I will describe its smell and performance and if it’s worth it.

What Does Nishane Ani Smell Like?

There are a lot of notes in the opening. There are about six that are competing for attention. However, it comes across as effervescent, like a sparkling quality. Much of this is from the ginger. Along with the effervesce are spices and sweetness. 

Pretty quickly after the first spray, vanilla is dominant. It is so good that all the other notes don’t matter. It has a sugary sweetness but is also creamy, rich, and zingy from the spices.

Usually, vanilla is seen as basic, but it is complex and done differently in this case. It is the right degree of softness and mellowness while still being dominant. 

Into the dry down, the spices fade, and the base picks up a sandalwood backbone. The top notes are still there but very subtle. The rest of the wear is all about vanilla and the light sandalwood backbone. 

Nishane Ani notes:

Performance

The performance is mild but pleasant. Ani lasts eight hours on the skin with moderate and consistent projection. It pushes out one to two feet for hours. Making your presence known but not screaming for attention.

As for the seasons, it is spring, fall, and winter wear. Thankfully, the prominent note is not too sweet, so it doesn’t get cloying in the heat. However, with the depth of the notes, it can still become overwhelming.

The occasional wearability is better. This can be worn for all occasions without any “restrictions.” The aroma is very alluring for formal occasions and dates. While the projection is subtle enough that it’s a perfect office or other close-quarter settings wear.

Lastly, the mass appeal and likability are excellent, and this is because of the same reasons above. A mild projection and alluring aroma. Whenever a fragrance has a prominent vanilla note, the fragrance is almost guaranteed to be liked by all.

Nishane Ani Clones

Ani has one dupe. According to fragrantica, Imperium Electimuss is the most similar fragrance. I don’t have experience with this fragrance, but based on the scent accords, it has the same prominent vanilla and lingering woods. However, the dupe has a prominent white floral accord and bright citrus opening.

Where Should I Buy Nishane Ani?

Final Words

Nishane Ani is worth it and is one of my favorite fragrances to recommend. Many times winter fragrances are absolute powerhouses. However, Ani is an excellent winter cologne with mild and wearable projection. It also has better wearability in the spring than most.

It is priced as a niche fragrance, as it should be. Yet, you pay for what you get.

After you try Nishane Ani, I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments.
