Cécile Zarokian

"Ani is a unisex spicy-woody vanilla fragrance from Nishane, created by Cécile Zarokian and launched in 2019. Although the brand markets it in Extrait form, its scent profile is clearly verified in the market and is built around a vivid contrast of ginger, bergamot, aromatic spice, rose, and a dense vanilla-benzoin-sandalwood base. The fragrance is especially known among enthusiasts for its "spicy vanilla" identity and for an effect many describe as lemon dessert-like in the opening before turning warmer and more resinous. Nishane ties the perfume to the ancient city of Ani and to themes of shared culture, memory, and breaking boundaries between people. Within the brand's catalog, it has become one of Nishane's signature modern vanilla fragrances and one of its most discussed global successes."

Reviews Summary

“Ani is widely praised as a rich, spicy vanilla with a distinctive ginger-citrus opening and a smooth woody-resinous drydown. Reviewers frequently describe it as elegant, comforting, and highly wearable for a niche fragrance, with some comparing the early stages to lemon cake or lemon tart. Performance is commonly regarded as very strong, though a minority of users find the ginger opening sharp or feel the fragrance is overhyped relative to its price. Overall sentiment is strongly positive, especially among vanilla lovers.”
