Rasasi Hawas Lineup Explained: Every Flanker Compared (2026)
The Rasasi Hawas line is a family of twelve-plus fragrances built around one 2015 original — Hawas for Him, a fresh fruity-aquatic of apple, citrus and salty ambergris — with flankers that push the formula colder (Ice), darker (Black), sweeter (Elixir, Reina), greener (Majestic, Kobra), more tropical (Chrome) and more elegant (London). This guide compares every Hawas we stock at Sara Sakina, with verified notes, real performance numbers, and honest advice on which to skip.
Hawas for Him (2015) — the original
Profile: crisp apple, bergamot, lemon and a flash of cinnamon over orange blossom, cardamom and plum, drying to salty ambergris, driftwood, musk and patchouli. Fruity Aquatic.
Performance: 6–8 hours, moderate sillage.
Verdict: the definitive warm-weather crowd-pleaser and the reason the line exists. Its honest weakness is longevity — it's the lightest performer in the family, so heavy-sprayer types may prefer Kobra or Black. Hawas for Him →
Hawas Ice (2023) — the cold one
Profile: frozen apple, lemon and star anise over a marine-floral heart, on crystal moss, driftwood, amber and musk. Fruity Aquatic.
Performance: 6–8 hours, moderate.
Verdict: the same DNA as the original, served chilled and slightly more mentholated. If you already own Hawas for Him, Ice is a variation, not a new experience — pick one, not both, unless the line is your signature. Hawas Ice →
Hawas Black (2024) — the night one
Profile: bergamot, pineapple and grapefruit over cedar, patchouli and jasmine, on dry oakmoss and amber. Fruity Chypre.
Performance: 10–12 hours, strong — the loudest in the line.
Verdict: the club and night-out pick. The opening is sharp and the projection is not office-polite; that's the point. Hawas Black →
Hawas Elixir (2024) — the sweet one
Profile: spearmint, bergamot and mugwort collapsing into dark chocolate, lavender and benzoin, over vanilla, tonka and white musk. Aromatic Gourmand.
Performance: 10–12 hours, strong.
Verdict: the cold-weather and date-night choice, and the furthest departure from the aquatic original. Too sweet and heavy for summer heat. Hawas Elixir →
Hawas for Her (2015) & Hawas Reina (2026) — the women's side
For Her: pomegranate, red apple and grapefruit over powdery iris and jasmine sambac, on a praline-patchouli-vetiver base; composition credited to perfumers Claire Liégent and Dominique Ropion. 6–8 hours, moderate. Juicy-sweet with a polished powdery core. Hawas for Her →
Reina: the 2026 gourmand flanker — cinnamon-dusted apricot, creamy white florals with coconut and coffee, sugared vanilla-sandalwood-amber. Warmer, sweeter, more evening-leaning than For Her; too new for reliable performance data. Hawas Reina →
Hawas Fire (2025) — the saline one
Profile: clary sage over Egyptian jasmine and marine notes, drying to salty ambergris and mineral amber. Aromatic Amber.
Performance: 8–10 hours, moderate.
Verdict: the most interesting middle ground — fresh yet resinous, aquatic yet warm. For wearers who find the original too fruity. Hawas Fire →
Hawas Kobra (2025) — the fresh-spicy one
Profile: bergamot, tangerine and ginger over spiced green tea and neroli, on musky amber woods. Citrus Aromatic.
Performance: 8–12 hours, strong; persists on clothing into the next day.
Verdict: the best performance-per-freshness ratio in the line — a loud, clean, soapy-bright daytime scent. Hawas Kobra →
The 2026 trio: London, Majestic, Chrome
London is the line's elegant outlier — pear and pink pepper over saffron-kissed rose and soft frankincense, on amber, vanilla and blonde woods; 8–10 hours, strong. It reads refined amber-floral, nothing like the aquatic flankers. Hawas London →
Majestic goes green and polished: lemon, rhubarb, cardamom and pink pepper over a ginger-rum heart with cashmeran and sage, on mossy cedar. The office-safe pick. Hawas Majestic →
Chrome is pure tropics — peach, orange, mango and passion fruit on clean amber-vanilla-musk; around 8–10 hours per early reviews. Hawas Chrome →
All three are recent releases, so community performance data is still thin — treat the numbers as early indications.
