Mohur is a rose-based fragrance, a combination of opulent Moghul rose perfumes and a distinguished spicy leather bouquet that can only be imagined during a polo match. To capture this moment, Mohur has been created as a refined rose-oudh alliance that pays tribute to Noor Jahan’s power and talent. Empress Noor Jahan devoted herself to the art of perfumery as it had been passed down from her mother.
It exemplifies the nearly 500-year span of India’s history that was shaped by a succession of influences from the outside world, from invaders to traders to colonizers, and which also gave rise to some of the most magnificent architecture the world has ever seen, including the Taj Mahal. The word Mohur derives from Sanskrit and refers to the most valuable gold coin in India’s history, the last of which were minted in 1918. The scent embodies, and is a dedication to, the mix of all the best of Moghul and the British Raj - a complex period in history for Indians which saw the flowering of unique gifts of the arts, music and education.

Lovely unique scent. Reminds me of those banana marshmallow candies I disliked as a kid. But I appreciate the smell as a bit of nostalgia. Great samples as always. Have really enjoyed buying from here.
Libre is a stunning scent - its light, floral, sweet and worth buying a full bottle.
Thank you scent discovery for the option of getting samples at the convenience of your home and then choosing where to invest in a full bottle. Love it!
Scent Discovery is the only place I could find a sample of Amouage Guidance 46! As expected from Amouage, their fragrances are truly exceptional — and with prices that high, sampling first is a must. I really appreciate the chance to experience it before committing to a full bottle. Thank you, Scent Discovery!
