What wearers say
“I love the OG sooo much but considering the price I am quite stingy about using it and yet it’s the scent I crave so often. Hence I am always looking for good dupes for it. I just got this and I’d say that it’s performing well right out of the box. It’s slightly nuttier than the OG and slightly more heavier making it more autumn-winter scent also the silage and projecting is not as good as the original. Not that this is lacking in this department but it’s still less than the original. It’s ok to scratch the itch.”
“Straight out of the box this smells exactly like pussy. I can't believe someone actually managed to make a perfume that smells like pussy.Incredible.10/10Maybe I should call her.Update: compared to Decadent Dream from Maison Alhambra, this smells much, much better. Obvious higher quality, persistence, projection, everything. Also smells like clean, fresh out of the shower pussy with a little bit of that woman's ass natural smell so, as a heterosexual straight man, I love this one.Decadent Dream is lesser quality, sweeter and more easygoing. Get this one instead.”
“Absolutely stunning dupe of Guidance. I’m gobsmacked. Especially in the dry down - wow wow wow. Mahab scratches the Guidance itch for a teeny fraction of the price and I am cheering. 100% worth your money if you love Guidance but you’re a normal person who has bills and won’t drop $600 on a fragrance. Mahab will remain in my collection permanently.”
