What Reddit owners say
1/5“People were hyping nishane ani as the second coming of christ. I sprayed that shit on my wrist and wanted to puke. It smelled like some medicine your grandma would give you. That's when I learned most people on the internet are paid by those companies to advertise their worst product so the company can get rid of their stock.”
3/5 Projection“I have a bottle of French Avenue Spectre Ghost and I've gone through almost half of it. Bought it from Darsh Mittal (Scent Bazaar). For me, the performance isn't on par with Nishane Ani, but it's still pretty good. I get around 2 hours of projection, after which it settles into a scent bubble around me. Around the 6-hour mark, it becomes more of a skin scent, which I actually think works really well for an intimate setting. Since I'm looking to declutter it, I have around 45ml left as a partial. If anyone is interested, feel free to DM me. Located in Delhi.”
4/5“Initio Musk Therapy layered with Nishane Ani for a sunny, chilly day out with friends. I want to share a nice lotion from the brand Flamingo, which I used today.”
3/5 Synthetic / harsh“I tested nishane ani and I somewhat liked it, so I blind bought ghost. To be honest it's good but it's not really my type of scent. For me personally it's too synthetic for what the scent profile is. It for sure does get really close to the og so if you're after that I would get it. But it for sure gets overhyped for what it is”
2/5 Summer“I have to get a second job if I want to afford vanille planifolia 🥲 I asked for a sample but they HELL NO they don't do it 🤣 I will definitely get BT extrait, probably in a month or two, it's anyway not a summer scent so there's no hurry but wow it's powerful without being overwhelming and I fell in love with it I also tried Nishane Ani X and Initio musk therapy, i wasn't impressed, even a bit disappointed 🤷🏻♂️”

4/5“Same experience as mine! Didnt really enjoyed nishane ani x and musk therapy. BT / BT Extrait is the gateway to ex nihilo (including speedy). Youll gonna love the house! You gotta try the new Demon Dancer, said to be as good as blue talisman edp but more masculine. I have yet to try it, but it seems right up my alley.”
4/5“Someone here said Vibrato layered with Nishane Ani smells like Ingenious Ginger. I tried it with Highness and Spectre Ghost and, while I can't say how close it is the I.G., it does smell pretty good!”

Not rated (no clear sentiment)“a LOT of vanillas I like have a blast of lavender somewhere (the aforementioned Shalimar, as well as Burberry Goddess, and Chanel Jersey) or something else going on (JHAG Vanilla Vibes is salty, Nishane Ani is spicy, B&BW Vanilla Romance is smoky). I am not up on more recent fragrances so I have not smelled anything you mentioned :( it would be fun to compare roundness.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“I have Nishane Ani X and Wu Long Cha X and a couple of decants of Hacivat and Ani but I have not actually tried any other fragrances by Nishane! I will have to order a decant of it and compare them, maybe the Nishane is a nicer version of this!”
