This was the last fragrance Jean Paul Guerlain signed for Guerlain in 2000. At this point in Guerlain history, LVMH had purchased them years before in 1994. Fans of the house viewed the LVMH...

I am not sure what I can say about this masterpiece that has not already been said....long discontinued, way ahead of it's time....the big, bold Mahora. In addition to the buttery, creamy GIANT...

This is a great fragrance. At the beginning, two different types of creaminess flit in and out, one reminiscent of coconut creme and the other of suntan lotion. (I did not really discern green...

I have a little miniature bottle that I got on eBay. It's a monster buttery tropical tuberose, frangipani scent that opens green with sandalwood in the dry down. Doesn't come across as a Guerlain,...

I like Mahora a lot, actually. It's a creamy, woody, white and yellow floral, very elegant to my nose but more classic than modern. I especially love the addition of almond blossom which provides...

In 2000, I attended a NYC party to introduce Mahora. Each attendee got a bottle of the EDP. The EDP was always different (and better) than the EDT. I have heard the EDT of Mahora was reissued in...

OMG, this is sand and sable from my teen years!! I can't believe it, it smells exact. I liked it after I sprayed it on but the drydown just smells cheap. Yuck.

If you're looking for an amazing oriental with a big O, try Mahora... It is sooo changeable, you might think that this is a totaly different perfume than the one you've put on in the...

This came out very spicy with carnation notes on my skin. It stayed spicy as tuberose poked its head through. The spiciness continued to evolve to a carnation/nutmeg and then it fell flat, like the...

This is a love-it or hate-it kinda deal. Mahora is a big white floral--BIG tuberose! It's similar to Fracas, but with tropical supporting notes. I think it's gorgeous after about the first...

"Sand and Sable" ring a bell? Mahora (2000) must be a COMPLETE rip-off of Sand & Sable by Coty (1983). It was a staple at drugstores in the 80s, my friend in elementary school wore this...

Mahora isn't the breeziest tropical fragrance around. In fact, it is precisely the opposite, something so thick and strong that by its very nature it would immediately post a no-trespass to all...

Oh Mahora how I love thee... It is classified as an Oriental Floral and it does remain true to form. It was discontinued, but brought back, as the much much more pricier Mayotte... I am...

I'm a huge GUERLAIN fan, but MAHORA was not nice at all. I didn't like the ugly bottle. The fragrance was too linear (tuberose) for the exclusive traditional fragrance house Guerlain. If you like...

Mahora is a sultry tropical fragrance a la Guerlain. Tuberose, gardenia, the Guerlinade, and a hint of coconut is the impression I get. Reminds me of Jungle Gardenia in concept, but more...

Quit comparing Guerlains to Shalimar - this is a distinctive Guerlain in it's own category. Mahora is a happier floral than the complex bottle may lead one to believe. This is a lush flower garden...

If you don't like tuberose, stay well clear. This is one of the flattest single note fragrances I have ever smelt. On me it starts off smelling like tuberose, and 8 hours later it smells exactly...
