Where it differs: Revolt Uprising adds caramel and cinnamon to the vanilla base and drops the rose and sage, so the drydown is sweeter and more gourmand than Ani X.

Buy Ani X ifYou want the airy melon-ginger opening with a drier, refined drydown.
Buy Revolt Uprising ifYou like a sweeter ginger-vanilla take and want 100ml for about $44.

Where it differs: Spectre Ghost follows the original Ani rather than Ani X, so it lacks the melon, apple and lavender freshness and dries into a heavier, creamier vanilla.

Buy Ani X ifYou want Ani X's fresher fruity-green twist on ginger vanilla.
Buy Spectre Ghost ifYou prefer the warmer, creamier ginger-vanilla of the original Ani.
