That's how I feel/feel when I wear this fragrance. Sexy and wicked... Because the not so scratchy spices paired with a biting vanilla, which is not listed, are simply gorgeous, especially compared to the classic version... Unfortunately, there's just one catch: shortly after I bought this perfume, I got corona, and it's the finest... Since then, I haven't been able to wear it too often, but I love it so much. I also don't want it to move on or anything. I would probably buy it again if I could wear it again without being reminded of that time. Please keep your fingers crossed that this association disappears. It's one of the few new releases that have turned out really well. Also reminds me of Poème by Lancôme, but in a modernized, more stylish, sexier...
I smell mainly tuberose, some ginger, a floral note (probably yasmine) and vanilla, which, as mentioned above, is not specified. The fragrance has a warm aura and is overall sweetly smoky with oriental hints: just the way I like it. It's not similar to this one, but I'm also a big fan of La Nuit Tresor, which also exudes a similar aura. And although such fragrances are more suitable for the colder seasons, I like to wear them all year round. The fragrance is great for going out, but sometimes you also feel like wearing it in everyday life. The longevity and sillage are of course bombastic, what more could you want?
Definitely a recommendation. However, some people my age, i.e. in their early twenties, might perceive it as old-fashioned. It's best to try before you buy. I was lucky enough to be able to test it extensively at home, as it was in another fragrance box. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't have noticed it at all, as I don't really like most of the brand's fragrances... so give it a chance. Go on dates with it or something but don't let any bad associations put you off it.

I was so pleased when this fragrance was available in a perfumery near me. You can hardly find them anywhere else to test. The reviews had appealed to me enormously and a friend had also highly recommended the fragrance to me. "It would definitely be a fragrance that you might like." was the approximate wording she used. Unfortunately, I didn't notice anything cuddly or sweet about the fragrance - I just wanted it to bite and sting, it seems high quality, but not to the extent that it would be worth it for me. There are many designers who are demonized as mainstream, but are much nicer than this fragrance. It's more for people who like spice at its best, who like ginger, aniseed and cinnamon in combination with greenery...
"Ani" (pronounced Anne), translates as memory and in my opinion is also creatively chosen in relation to the history of the fragrance, but for me, at least at this point in time, it will remain as a disappointing memory. Nevertheless, I find the brand's fragrances interesting and if it doesn't become one, perhaps it will be another, but then probably not today, but only in a few years when I'm a bit older, because somehow the brand's fragrances seem old-fashioned to me.

A few weeks ago, I received this fragrance as a gift from my two best friends. We've been very close with them for a few months now, even though we've known each other for years... Yes, friendships can take twists and turns. And although it's not necessarily the case with this fragrance and I only like it so-so, it will always be remembered as a sign of our friendship. Yes, I don't particularly like it, but it still reminds me of security, a feeling of coziness and warmth. Funnily enough, it doesn't even smell warm, rather cool, but because of my association, I often perceive the scent more positively. I'm not going to write about Opoponax or other exclusive or less exclusive fragrance notes, but simply describe my own scent association when I spray it on. Green sweet is really accurate, because what I smell is a lemongrass note mixed with vanilla. It really smells almost exactly like when I mix the essential oils of lemongrass and vanilla, add them to my diffuser, mix the oil blend with water and let the vapors of this relaxing scent take full effect on me. This spicy vanilla sometimes reminds me of speculoos, although there is not even any cinnamon or anything else in that direction. For me, it is not necessarily a fragrance to wear in public. Rather, I use the fragrance to create a relaxing atmosphere at home with essential oils. The fragrance would definitely be more successful as a room spray than as a perfume.
The durability and sillage are rather poor for the brand, but that doesn't matter, because the fragrance isn't supposed to waft and scream. The bottle is also kept simple, which is typical of the brand. Accordingly, the price-performance ratio is of course also okay. Not all, but some of the brand's fragrances even smell quite natural or not overly synthetic, even though they are so cheap, instead of having to turn into the highly synthetic BR 540 curve...
To be honest, I wouldn't buy the fragrance again, but I will always associate fond memories with these and especially think of them when I turn on my diffuser.

I bought this fragrance quite spontaneously last year and had only tested it once. I usually need at least ten attempts before I buy a fragrance, but this one was enough. To be honest, it's not necessarily my favorite fragrance, but it's still quite nice for in between. Let's get to the point bit by bit.
In the opening, you can clearly smell the nuts with a slight roasted note, but they are not salty, they are clearly vanilla-based. I also notice a creamy note, which is unusual for very sweet fragrances, even if it is subtly swept into the background by the vanilla. It seems a bit like a subtle coconut note, but it could also be yasmin, as coconut is not listed. It is precisely this note that makes the fragrance, although it is really a bit overwhelmingly sweet, also discreetly suitable for summer. I really don't know of any gourmand that I could clearly say is also suitable for summer, but this one definitely is. Of course, it would suit fall and winter better, but it also works in summer with just a few splashes. The salty-caramel note reminds me a little of Olympia, but the concept has been implemented much better here. In the case of Olympia and its counterparts, this salty-sweet note is rather musty and overpowering. That's why I'm pretty disappointed about my purchase of the Olympia Legend and can't get rid of it anywhere right now... if you're interested, please let me know, but now I'm off again. The salty-caramel note is very smooth and doesn't give you a headache. The balance is just right.
But what disappoints me deeply is the bottle. It's just like a can of hairspray: how can that be with a fragrance like this? It's not a perfume but a body spray, but in my opinion you could call it an eau de toilette, maybe even an eau de parfum, because the scent is immediately very intense and lasts for a few hours on clothes.
I have occasional feelings of regret with this fragrance because I bought the large bottle straight away and to be honest, I don't know whether I will buy another one because 240 ml is more than enough for me. I don't even have that much of my signature fragrance, La nuit Tresor, in stock, so it won't be at all surprising if I don't fancy it after this bottle. Nevertheless, it is a pleasant fragrance and despite its sweetness, it is slightly sparkling. Some people also find it subtly reminiscent of Hypnotic Poison, but much more caramelly and less deep. It reminds me of the feeling when the sea breeze gently caresses the sun creamed skin and the temperatures are not too warm, but already summery, around 26°C and with low humidity. You also get a slight popcorn vibe, at least from the top note. On the other hand, the fragrance also somehow reminds me of train stations and subways: but that's probably because I got on the subway to go to university after buying this fragrance ;)
The price-performance ratio is of course quite okay, you can't really complain, because for being advertised as a body spray, the performance is as strong as that of a normal perfume. You can kind of tell that it's a fragrance between a drugstore and a perfumery fragrance. I would like to see the fragrance packaged and marketed in a proper bottle...
Conclusion: it's not bad, on the contrary, but the smallest flacon is big enough for me not to get sick of it in the end.

and again quite explicitly: cheap is not equal to cheap. This fragrance is simply the hammer: fruity, sweet and noble... unfortunately, I have the feeling that it was reformulated. I'm blind and can't judge it myself, but according to my mother, her first flacon should have been a bit darker in color than her second. The silage is also a bit weaker and I somehow felt that the first version smelled a bit better in a qualitative sense. I've been following the price for several years and I've noticed that this one has dropped tremendously OVER TIME.... Even if I still miss the first one, I think the current version is nice too. The perfume wasn't completely screwed up, thankfully, as is common with reformulations. The new Juicy has become a little sweeter. I can well imagine that I will also purchase a bottle despite reformulation. By the way, the fragrance is suitable for any age group.
