Ani Nishane 2019 Extrait de Parfum

Then it would be the beautiful Ani Extrait de Parfum Pure herbs at the beginning, but in my nose by no means maggi-like but really fine, noble herbs of Provence, I have to think of sweet sage, fresh marjoram, rosemary leaves and thyme, maybe even a little touch of lavender although not listed. All wonderfully fresh green with a dusting of rose powder.
And on top, a squeaky yellow sun vanilla, vibrant and sophisticated, almost artificial, very similar to Vanilla | 28 vanilla in my nose.
High-quality and very present, the beautiful Ani Extrait de Parfum stays on me for hours, changes little, at most only becomes more vanilla, the herb garden gradually recedes further and further with the hours. Top shelf life, very good sillage in the first 2 to 3 hours, if I'm not careful and take too many sprays I sometimes even get sick because the cloud becomes very dense.
For me it's more of a feminine fragrance as the vanilla is quite sweet, and certainly suitable for all ages if you like the scent. I also find that it can be worn anywhere where you are allowed to smell relatively freely, in everyday life depends on the situation, if you work with patients, for example, this fragrance could be unpleasant for patients, children or animals, as it already pushes into the nose.
For fans of Angélique Noire and Cuir Béluga I can only recommend a test, I find all 3 fragrances quite similar in style, only that the Guerlains are clearly more restrained and therefore more elegant and expensive. Well, they are also more expensive and not just a little :)
Since I find the Cuir Béluga much more balanced and exquisite, I would rather go for it, if my bank account would allow it at some point, and I wouldn't need both bottles.
As for Ani Extrait de Parfum, I liked its more expensive, younger sister Ani X better, as I perceive lavender more strongly and the vanilla is finer, generally rounder and nobler. But that is certainly a matter of taste and what you personally like better.
I wouldn't recommend a blind buy because of the price, especially as you simply have to like this herb-vanilla combination.
And what about you? Do you know the Ani sister and which one suits your taste better? Thank you for reading my review and best regards
