Amazight, Club de Nuit Intense, Hawas and Hawas Black all open with fresh fruit, but they go in different directions. Club de Nuit Intense pairs pineapple with smoky birch. Hawas pairs apple with citrus, cinnamon, cardamom and watery notes for a cool, aquatic feel. Hawas Black pairs pineapple and grapefruit with patchouli and oakmoss. Amazight pairs pineapple, red berries and apple with a double rose heart and a vanilla, amber and cashmere wood base, so it is the warmest and most floral of the four.
Key takeaways
- Choose Club de Nuit Intense for smoky pineapple.
- Choose Hawas for cool, aquatic apple.
- Choose Hawas Black for pineapple over earthy patchouli and moss.
- Choose Amazight for fruit with roses, vanilla and amber, at extrait strength.

What do they have in common?
Fruit is the thread. Amazight shares pineapple with Club de Nuit Intense and Hawas Black, apple with Club de Nuit Intense and Hawas, and cardamom with Hawas. Its rose and jasmine echo the heart of Club de Nuit Intense, and its cedarwood and moss echo the base of Hawas Black. If you like how any of these open, Amazight will feel familiar in the first minutes.
How is Amazight different from Club de Nuit Intense?
Smoke is the big difference. Club de Nuit Intense gets its signature from birch, which gives the pineapple a dry, smoky edge. Amazight has no birch. Its pineapple leads into Bulgarian and Turkish rose, magnolia and jasmine sambac, then settles into vanilla, amber and cashmere wood. It smells rounder, warmer and more floral, and it is an extrait rather than an eau de toilette.
How is Amazight different from Hawas?
Hawas is built to feel cool. Its apple and citrus sit over watery notes, plum and orange blossom, with driftwood and grey amber underneath. Amazight shares the apple and cardamom but replaces the aquatic feel with roses and vanilla. Reach for Hawas on hot, bright days and Amazight when you want fruit with more comfort and depth.
How is Amazight different from Hawas Black?
Hawas Black is the closest in structure: pineapple on top, cedarwood and jasmine in the middle, moss and amber in the base. It leans earthier, with patchouli and oakmoss. Amazight adds red berries and a double rose to the fruit and softens the woods with vanilla and musk, so it feels sweeter and more polished.

Can you layer Amazight with Club de Nuit Intense?
Yes, and it is one of our favourite pairings. Spray Club de Nuit Intense first, then one spray of Amazight on top. The birch adds a smoky edge to Amazight's fruit, and Amazight's roses and vanilla round out the smoke. More ideas are in how to layer Amazight.
Questions about Amazight, Club de Nuit Intense and Hawas
Is Amazight a Club de Nuit Intense dupe?
No. Amazight is an original composition mixed by Aymane Zerzkhane for Sara Sakina. It shares a pineapple and apple opening with Club de Nuit Intense, but it has no smoky birch and adds red berries, a double rose heart, magnolia, amber and cashmere wood.
Which is fresher, Amazight or Hawas?
Hawas is fresher. Its apple, citrus and watery notes give it a cool, aquatic feel that suits hot days. Amazight is fruity and bright at the start but turns floral and warm, with rose, vanilla and amber, so it feels richer and cozier on skin.
Is Amazight good for summer?
Yes. The pineapple, berries and apple make Amazight easy to wear in warm weather, especially on summer evenings. On very hot days, one or two sprays is enough, because it is an extrait and the vanilla and amber base grows with heat.
Which lasts longest?
Amazight is an extrait de parfum and comes with Sara Sakina's 10 to 12 hour longevity guarantee. Club de Nuit Intense Man is an eau de toilette and the Hawas scents are eaux de parfum, which usually carry less perfume oil. Skin and climate still change wear time.
Is Amazight unisex?
Yes. Amazight is designed to be worn by anyone. Its fruit and cedarwood feel fresh and confident, while its roses and vanilla keep it soft. Club de Nuit Intense Man and Hawas are marketed to men, so Amazight is a good choice if you want that fruity style with a more shared character.
