The Hawas line, explained
Hawas is Rasasi’s most famous line, a family of fresh, fruity, versatile crowd-pleasers built to survive heat and humidity. The original Hawas for Him is the benchmark, and the flankers each take the DNA in a different direction:
- Hawas Black: the smokiest and most fruity, in the direction of a fruity-smoky designer style.
- Hawas Elixir: a sweeter, richer, more intense take.
- Hawas Tropical: a creamy coconut-and-fig summer version, and Malibu: a bright pineapple-citrus one.
- Hawas Kobra: a fresh green-tea twist, and Viper: a darker, spicy tobacco-coffee one.
