Pink pepper and saffron over incense and rose
Hawas London is an Eau de Parfum from Rasasi. The notes on record are pink pepper, saffron and pear, then incense, rose and white flowers, with blonde woods, musk, amber and vanilla underneath. A spicy, smoky and floral blend that also has a sweet base is easy to like or dislike quickly, and a decant lets you find out without a full bottle.

The composition
The curve shows the order in which the notes come forward, not their strength.
On the skin
The opening is pink pepper, saffron and pear. Pear adds a natural sweetness that the spices frame, with pink pepper giving a dry sparkle and saffron a warm, leathery colour. Spray once and see which of the two spices speaks first and how the fruit softens them.
The heart brings incense, rose and white flowers. Incense gives a smoky, quiet air, rose adds elegance and the white flowers a creamy richness. This is the stage where the perfume feels most layered, so smell your wrist a few times.
The base is blonde woods, musk, amber and vanilla. The pale woods provide a dry frame, musk keeps it soft, and amber with vanilla gives a warm, creamy end. Come back in the evening to judge whether this finish feels cosy or sweeter than you want.
Testing it
Choose a cool day or an evening, since FragranceGems tags Hawas London for autumn and winter as well as daily use, evenings and special occasions. One or two sprays are enough to read the stages. Wear it once with plain clothes and once dressed up to see how the incense and rose carry.
For people who like oriental, floral and woody perfumes with incense and saffron, and want something warm for the cooler months. It is tagged unisex and strong at FragranceGems. If you are curious about incense in perfume but do not want a smoky heavyweight, the sample shows where this one sits.
Saffron and incense can be thrilling or too serious depending on the wearer, and the sweetness of the base moves the balance again. A decant of Hawas London, filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us, lets you judge it over a few days. You can also find the 100 ml bottle at FragranceGems.

Read how we fill your sampleQuestions
FragranceGems pours the perfume from the original bottle into a 10 ml glass spray vial and applies our own label. It is not an official brand sample, and Rasasi plays no role in how it is filled.
The record lists incense in the heart, which adds smoke, but also rose, white flowers, pear and vanilla, which soften it. How smoky it feels on you is something only the sample will show.
FragranceGems tags autumn and winter, and the saffron, incense and amber fit cold air. If you want it for a cool spring evening, the decant makes that test easy.
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
