Not really surprising since as I understand it the name simply means the best spices that the merchant has to offer.  So there are likely as many combinations as there are people who can combine them.  Much like garam masala, no two are alike. 

 

 

Indeed, and the same vendor's offering this week may be different from next week's. The best I've had was some my sister brought back from Algeria years ago after she mistakenly married another husband. She had certain problems getting it through UK customs.The staff confused it with another popular Moroccan product.
