having never tried this flavor myself, how would you describe it?

sandalwood with berries kind of, nothing else comes close to it in flavor or scent

it's been described as:

"Here is what I get from this juice….a whole lot of spices you might find
at your local head shop, like incense, clove, cinnamon, patchouli, tea,
flower berry."

"a UNIQUE liquid. I can't say I have tasted anything like Maha Ras. If you could eat Patchouli, Maha Ras is what it would taste like. It almost reminds me of Nag Champa incense."

"The most complex juice I have tried to date. Strawberry and incense on the nose, a hundred tingly flavors on the tongue. Notes of berry, cream, jasmine, cardamum? Sublime vape, nice inhale and a great room note."

" Fruity-incense-head shop-hookah bar..."

" It smells like incense. If I close my eyes and sniff, it conjures images of tie-dye, black light posters and Pink Floyd music! The flavor in a cartomizer is very strong, a little bitter. It is not "perfumey" per se, but unexpected to taste sandalwood and patchouli-esque flavors. However, in the Aga-T2 the complexity really shines. The vapor takes on a slight sweetness, with cardamom, black pepper and a slightly fruity flavor - cherries, perhaps? The incense taste is still there, but not as prominent. Note: this flavor is nearly impossible to get out of an atomizer! "

Oh, I got to try that.

503's purple rain is very insence like. Sweet and bit floral. Very similar to the old purple scented gum from the drug store.

that one is kind of incense-like, kinda more floral than maha, but it's about the only thing that is anywhere in the ballpark that i've had

thanks for the info fire, this stuff sounds like something i'd really enjoy.


as far as op, i can't imagine that this juice will be much in comparison, the only thing they have in common is that it would seem they use exotic spices, but shinshiro by thenancara is a thai spice with red fruit. i found the spice to be prominent, with the red fruit coming out only after steeping for quite some time.
