Inspiration: Ani by Nishane. When vanilla-dominant fragrances are spoken about, Ani is a household name that represents the genre better than most. An intoxicating and slightly powdery vanilla introduction is combined with luscious pink pepper and juicy black currant to synthesize an aroma that is beguiling and arresting. Natural ingredients like Turkish rose and ambergris add to the exotic appeal of the fragrance until a base of sandalwood and musk close out the scent while never stealing the spotlight from the vanilla note that makes us weak in the knees and inspires reverence. The Dua Brand was inspired to create our version of this modern masterpiece, and we have decided to call it Drowning in Vanilla.
