The composition
The curve shows the order in which the notes come forward, not their strength.
On the skin
The recorded top is ginger, bergamot and mandarin, a mix FragranceGems calls explosive and dynamic. Ginger gives heat and sparkle, bergamot and mandarin the citrus. Notice whether that opening feels lively to you or a bit loud.
In the heart sit cinnamon, green tea and neroli. Cinnamon adds warm spice, green tea an aromatic freshness and neroli a soft orange-flower note. The description says the cinnamon-neroli pairing brings warmth; judge whether it feels smooth on your skin.
The base lists musk, woody notes and amber, an oriental-woody foundation. Musk softens, the woody notes give structure and amber adds warmth. This is where you see whether the perfume ends dry and woody or soft and warm on you.
Testing it
Wear it on a cool day or in the evening, since ginger and cinnamon feel at home there. Apply a modest amount on the wrists and neck and smell it at the start, in the middle and at the end of the day. A second day with a different amount helps to find the level that suits it.
Hawas Kobra is for people who like spicy, citrus-and-wood perfumes with a warm base for evenings and special occasions. FragranceGems tags it for men, as strong, for autumn and winter. If you prefer light scents, the sample shows quickly whether this strong profile is for you.
A strong, spiced perfume is a bigger risk to buy blind, and spice and orange blossom combine differently on every wearer. The decant, filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us, lets you decide calmly. Rasasi did not fill or label the vial, and it is not an official brand sample.
What you receive
We start with a full bottle of the perfume. Nothing is diluted, mixed or added.
Filled by hand into a clean glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml and closed straight after filling.
Our own label names the brand, the perfume, the concentration and the size.

FragranceGems tags it as strong, so a modest amount is a good start. It is also tagged for daily use; the decant lets you find the amount that suits your routine.
Green tea is listed in the heart. According to the description it adds an aromatic freshness that offsets the cinnamon warmth. Notice whether you feel that contrast on your skin.
It starts with citrus and ginger but moves to cinnamon, neroli, musk and amber. It is more spiced and woody than a plain citrus perfume, which the sample shows within a wearing or two.
The brand
Rasasi is a perfume house from Dubai whose own site sorts its work into two lines, Oriental and Occidental. FragranceGems describes it as one of the city's most renowned houses and carries, among others, the Hawas series as samples: Eau de Parfum that share a name and a fresh, masculine idea but differ in temperature, from the icy Hawas Ice to the amber-heavy Hawas Highness. A sample set is the only sensible way to tell the Hawas versions apart.

Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
