The marine version of the Hawas line. In practice: where the classic Hawas is fruity and warm, Atlantis is fruity and fresh.
— The same architecture as the original Hawas: apple, lemon, bergamot, cinnamon in the top notes.
— Cardamom and plum in the heart, but with an aquatic accord added there that changes the temperature of the whole thing.
— The base stays ambery and woody, but it pushes less, it stays closer to the skin.
It is the same fragrance dressed for summer. It will give you the same scent in a lighter version. That is not a flaw if it is what you are looking for — it is a problem if you expected something else.
Register: spring and summer, daytime. Decent wear, moderate projection — in full sun, that is an advantage.
The notes
Top — Bergamot, cinnamon, lemon, apple
Heart — Cardamom, orange blossom, plum, aquatic notes
Base — Amber, musk, patchouli, woods

A fougère oriental, and the only true representative of that family in our Rasasi selection. The fougère, in perfumery, is the lavender – geranium – moss – coumarin accord: the structure of classic masculine eaux de toilette, the one of a clean shave and an ironed shirt. Here it is reworked in the Gulf manner.
— The opening is frank and aromatic: bergamot, lavender, geranium.
— The heart brings rose and sage, then the sandalwood and cedar that announce what follows.
— The base crosses over to the oriental side: amber, musk, oakmoss and oud.
That shift is what makes the bottle interesting. You start on familiar European ground and end on a Middle Eastern base. The bridge is well made.
Who it is for: someone who wears classic fragrances and wants to move to the oriental without jumping into the void.
Register: all year, daytime. Long wear, moderate projection.
The notes

An oriental spiced fragrance in the old manner, built without any nods to fashion.
— The opening is bitter and aromatic: the cardamom and the caraway bite, and the wormwood brings that green, aniseed freshness you find in classic eaux de toilette.
— Then the rose and the iris soften everything. Iris is the material that gives that powdery impression, a little cool, a little elegant — it is what keeps the fragrance from being just a spice box.
— The base does the real work: sandalwood, patchouli, amber, then vanilla and tonka bean for the softness. You move from a sharp beginning to a warm, comfortable ending, and that transition is the whole interest of the bottle.
Register: autumn, winter, preferably in the evening. Long wear, frank projection in the first hour.
The notes
