Rasasi's Hawas Ice is the cooler reading of a fragrance that has become a genuine staple in this region.

The original Hawas is a fresh spicy with real warmth to it. That works well for most of the year and, in the peak of a Gulf summer, can read heavier than you want by mid-afternoon.

Ice addresses that directly. Bergamot and apple open cooler and cleaner, giving the composition an aquatic freshness against the original's spice. The musky amber base is retained, which is what allows a fresh fragrance to still last eight hours instead of disappearing by lunchtime - the usual trade with aquatics.

At Eau de Parfum concentration the performance is strong: noticeable projection through the first hour, and legible on skin well into the evening.

Apply to pulse points. It is well suited to daytime and hot weather, and works for the office as well as socially.
