Ani (Nishane, Cécile Zarokian, 2019) is a niche, high-priced ginger-cardamom-vanilla extrait with a cult following, so the clone market for it is thinner than for mainstream designer or Creed-type targets. Community discussion is spread across Fragrantica forum boards, Fragrantica/Parfumo perfume review pages, and comparison YouTube videos rather than a single dominant Reddit thread. The clearest, most repeated consensus is that Alexandria Fragrances' H'Ani is the closest overall match on notes (ginger, cardamom, vanilla, patchouli) though its longevity/projection is reported inconsistently (some say it beats a reformulated Ani, others say it fades fast). Lattafa's budget option Nasheet is very frequently cited as an affordable 'Ani lite' — a decent but noticeably thinner, less citrusy, lower-projecting take. Dua Fragrances' 'Drowning in Vanilla' is a mid-price niche-clone-house option with several independent YouTube comparison reviews calling it a solid ~80%-similar dupe with good performance, albeit with some complaints about a harsher, more 'chemical' opening than the original. Other items surfaced in searches (DIVAIN 782, Be Layered Linae, DUA's flanker dupe) were mostly marketing copy without independent on-skin comparison discussion, so they were excluded despite being marketed as Ani dupes.
