More Than Words Clones

"### The Scent Profile Maahir opens with a blast of candied fruit – think cherry hard candy mixed with a slightly medicinal labdanum. It’s bold, almost cloying at first, but it quickly settles. The floral heart emerges, adding a powdery sweetness that prevents the opening from becoming unbearable. I pick up rose and something slightly indolic, but it's not overpowering. The drydown is where it shifts into a warmer, ambery territory. The oud is definitely there, but it's a smooth, almost suede-like oud rather than a barnyard funk. The ambergris gives it a salty, oceanic undertone, which keeps the sweetness in check. Compared to its inspiration, Maahir lacks the refined edges. It's brasher, more forward, and less nuanced. The original has a smoother transition, and the notes feel more integrated. This has a rougher blending style. ### Is it Worth It? This is a cold-weather fragrance, best suited for fall and winter evenings. It has the warmth and depth to cut through the chill. It could work for date night, a formal gathering, or any situation where you want to make a statement without being overly loud. While it’s not office appropriate, Maahir would be perfect for a weekend excursion or a night out with friends. ### Longevity & Projection I consistently get 8-10 hours on skin. The projection is initially strong, filling a room for the first hour or two, then it settles to about an arm's length. I tested it during a full workday in a climate-controlled office. It performed admirably, drawing a few compliments but never feeling intrusive."
