The Coalition of the Pleasant Scent of Servitude or Sweet Scent of Servitude (Persian: ائتلاف رايحه خوش خدمت) was an Iranian principlist political group supporting Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and his government.
The group was founded a few months before the Iranian local elections, 2006, and was able to win seats in several City and Village Councils of Iran. They had no candidates in Ilam, Sari, Kerman, Gorgan and Khorramabad. According to Fars News Agency, the results were as follows:
They competed in the Iranian legislative election, 2008 as part of United Front of Conservatives. After the elections, their winning candidates formed a new fraction named "Islamic Revolution", claiming to have 90 members.
In 2010, some reports indicated a dispute inside the group, and in the Iranian legislative election, 2012, some members formed Stability Front, claiming not to support the followers of Ahmadinejad. Another newly formed group called Monotheism and Justice Front, was linked to Esfandiar Rahim Mashaei and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
