Follow vs Ani

The r/fragrance community consensus is overwhelmingly negative toward Kerosene Followed due to its extreme and uncontrollable projection and longevity. While the maple syrup scent itself is pleasant to some, the fragrance projects so intensely that it becomes offensive to others and contaminates entire spaces for extended periods. Multiple users report the scent lingering for weeks in cars, homes, and on clothing, making it impractical and problematic for any public or shared environments.

Nishane Ani is a polarizing fragrance that rewards patience and nose training, with many discovering its appeal only after repeated wears. While praised for quality vanilla and spice notes with strong projection, the opening is dominated by ginger and pepper that doesn't suit everyone, and longevity falls short of expectations for its price point and concentration.
