Notes, the scent, when to wear, and who it is for.
The Hawas line from Rasasi has grown steadily since its 2015 debut, but Hawas Elixir Eau de Parfum, released in 2024, marks the sharpest turn the series has taken. Where the original Hawas leaned aquatic and fresh, Hawas Elixir pivots hard into gourmand-oriental territory, stacking cool mint against dark chocolate and grounding everything in warm vanilla. It is a unisex release that wears with particular confidence in colder weather. Aromatica carries the Rasasi Hawas Elixir decant in Bangladesh in all available sizes.
Fragrance Notes
Top: Mint, Bergamot, Artemisia

The Scent
Mint hits first, not the toothpaste kind but a clean, slightly herbal mint with bergamot lifting it into something brighter and more citric. Artemisia adds a faint bitter edge here, keeping the top from reading purely sweet or candy-like. It can read sharp or fresh depending on skin, but that initial crispness is the point: it sets up contrast for what follows. The mint does not disappear so much as it slowly cools and retreats, making room for the heart to emerge. That transition from the cool herbal opening to the richer middle register happens gradually, with the mint lingering at the edges even as the composition shifts beneath it. Within about fifteen minutes, the shift is clearly underway, and the top notes begin folding into something noticeably denser and warmer.
Dark chocolate arrives first in the heart, not a sugary milk chocolate but a deep, slightly bitter cocoa that feels more like raw baking chocolate than a confection. It is the backbone of the whole composition and stays present throughout, from the heart all the way into the dry-down, never fully stepping aside. Lavender threads through the middle register in a supporting role, smoothing the shift from the cool herbal top into the warmer base without drawing much attention to itself. It reads more as a soft blending note than a defined lavender accord, which keeps the composition from feeling fougere-adjacent. Benzoin arrives around the same time, adding a resinous, faintly sweet, almost balsamic quality that begins to blur the line between heart and base earlier than expected. That early arrival of benzoin is one of the things that makes Hawas Elixir feel denser than its note list might suggest. The interplay between the bitter cocoa and the balsamic benzoin creates a texture that feels more like a worn leather interior than a dessert counter, grounding the sweetness before the base fully takes over.
As the fragrance settles into its dry-down, vanilla and tonka bean pull together into a creamy, lightly powdery warmth that softens the chocolate without erasing it. The relationship between those base notes and the dark chocolate heart is the most interesting thing happening in this fragrance: they push against each other rather than stacking neatly. White musk keeps the base clean rather than heavy, which stops the whole composition from collapsing into an overly sticky gourmand. The structural comparison to Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male Elixir is accurate in broad terms. Where Le Male Elixir leans on honey and vanilla for its sweetness, Hawas Elixir uses that dark chocolate core to push in a noticeably different direction. It can read nearly identical from a distance or noticeably darker up close, depending on how the chocolate interacts with individual skin chemistry. Both directions point to a clearly shared DNA, which makes Le Male Elixir a useful reference point even if the two are not identical.
When to Wear
Built for autumn and winter evenings, this fragrance suits date nights, dinner settings, and cooler indoor environments where something rich and deliberate lands well. The date nights collection at Aromatica includes other fragrances in this family if you want to compare. It can read as heavy in summer heat, so it earns its place in the colder half of the year.
Who Is It For
Anyone who gravitates toward chocolate-forward orientals but wants something more composed than a straightforward gourmand, or someone already wearing Le Male Elixir who is curious what a darker, mint-edged take on that structure feels like.
