Hawas Black

What to expect

Hawas Black by Rasasi is a 2024 aromatic-fruity eau de parfum for him.

It sits honestly in the spirit of Nishane Hacivat — see Inspired by for the side-by-side. Same mossy pineapple-citrus magnetism; Rasasi’s black Hawas bottle and a clearer price. Many noses call it louder and a touch more synthetic in the opening before the dry-down aligns.

Wear notes

• Opening is bright and fruity-citrus — pineapple and grapefruit with bergamot; can feel sharp or synthetic for a few minutes.
• The middle hour brings patchouli, cedarwood, and a soft jasmine lift — woody structure under the fruit.
• Dry-down is oakmoss, woody notes, and amber — mossy, earthy polish that clings to fabric.
• Longevity tends to run long; projection starts strong — two to three sprays is enough.
• Best for spring through autumn days, office, and outdoor wear — versatile; heavy oakmoss may feel dense in extreme heat for some.

Who it is for

• Wearers who want pineapple-oakmoss chypre energy without Hacivat pricing
• Fans of the Hacivat / Aventus-adjacent DNA looking for strong daily performance
• Anyone who prefers mossy woods over pure aquatic freshness

Who should skip it

• If you dislike oakmoss, earthy dry-downs, or sharp synthetic openings

Why it sits in the Razanosa edit

• A clear dark-fresh silhouette
• Source-honest notes
• Performance that matches how people actually wear it through a workday

30-second smell test

• First spray — loud pineapple-citrus spark; wait a few minutes before judging
• After 30 minutes — cedar-patchouli woods over mossy amber
