Hawas Ice

Review: Hawas Ice for Men – The Cool Guy Who Just Got a Haircut Hawas Ice for Men is like that effortlessly cool guy who shows up to a BBQ in loafers with no socks, a breezy button-down, and somehow manages not to sweat—despite standing next to the grill flipping burgers and making everyone question their deodorant choices. Right from the jump, this scent smacks you with a minty-fresh blast that feels like a toothpaste commercial directed by Michael Bay. Add a splash of citrus, a hint of icy cucumber, and boom—you’ve got the olfactory equivalent of air-conditioning in a bottle. As it settles, it leans into that aquatic vibe. Think: luxury hotel towels, ocean breeze, and maybe a mojito or two spilled on a yacht deck. It’s clean, bright, and charming in that “I shower daily and use fabric softener” kinda way. Now here’s where it shines: longevity is surprisingly solid. We’re talking 6 to 8 hours of staying power. That’s right—this freshie sticks around longer than most summer flings. No need to carry a decant like a nervous prom date. It’s not beast mode, but it’s a confident slow-burner that lets people know you’ve got your life together (even if you don’t). Mass appeal? Through the roof. This is the kind of scent you could wear to work, to dinner, or while robbing a bank and no one would be mad about it. It’s universally pleasant, like puppies or free WiFi. Projection starts off with a good punch—people will notice you when you walk in—but after an hour or two, it chills out and becomes more intimate. It doesn’t shout, it speaks in a well-modulated, charming voice. Like Ryan Reynolds in cologne form. Final Verdict: • Longevity: 8/10 (the cool guy actually sticks around) • Scent: 8.5/10 (minty-fresh aquatic delight) • Mass Appeal: 9/10 (everyone’s gonna love it—even that one person who hates everything) • Projection: 7/10 (starts bold, then plays it smooth) Would I wear it on a date, to the beach, and to awkward family gatherings? Yes. Yes. And absolutely yes. Smells like: If a mojito got a job in finance and bought a boat.

I tried regular Hawas and was relatively unimpressed I felt that the aquatic note in Hawas was rather synthetic and cheap and added this slight green/aromatic edge that I just felt was not very appealing and just hit a little on the lower quality end of things. Hawas Ice basically does all the same things as Hawas but actually improves the overall quality by delivering it in the slightly different more purposely aromatic way. Both Hawas and Hawas Ice open with this aromatic sweetness that people describe as "bubblegum". I'd describe it as a mixed plum and citrus spiced sweetness which is reigned in by the aquatic note in Hawas and the star anise cool aromatics in Hawas Ice. That difference really means everything it feels so much less synthetic and more like a purposely mixed fragrance than a cheaply developed dupe, at least to my tastes. The thing is Hawas and Hawas Ice start in parallel fairly close but decidedly separate and then in the dry down they link up and are basically developing hand in hand. The dry down for Hawas Ice is essentially the exact same as Hawas with just this hint of freshness to the aromatics rather than just the more plainly spiced aromatics of Hawas. They're close enough that you could mistake one for another if you didn't have them side by side anyways. So with that in mind that is why I prefer Hawas Ice so much more to Hawas because realistically you just have the exact same fragrance except one is just the higher quality version of the other. The price reflects that but as I see it with fragrances you should just pay the extra to get the superior fragrance when it's a choice between flankers like this and not just settle. I also think it is very possible to enjoy Hawas Ice while not enjoying Hawas where usually I'm willing to accept a tough opening but in this case it's one of those situations where I actively dislike what they are doing with the OG versus it simply being a little synthetic or alcoholic for a time.

This is a great cologne, lots of people are buying counterfeits which tend to smell worse then the original and not perform as well. although it might not seem like this cologne would have counterfeits, it REALLY does. These counterfeits are usually cheaper and smell more alcoholic and perform worse then the original. A lot of people have been buying from untrusted vendors due to the inflation caused in this cologne because of “hype.” It is a great cologne, it 100% does not smell bad at all. And the projection and performance is amazing, and a good complimented fragrance. SO no, it’s not terrible your just stupid for buying a counterfeit product from an untrusted vendor! And all because you did not want to pay 50 dollars on fragrance net because you thought you could get it for 30 dollars from a random guy on ebay. YEAH of course hes going to ship you a fake cologne I would to who would not? Do not be like these idiots and buy a fake keep in mind that the fake and the real one look the exact same I have compared them before only slight differences. Other then that if someone does have the real one and they say it smells bad their 100% gatekeeping it.

Rasasi Hawas Ice is a fresh, energetic, and modern fragrance that delivers a clean and refreshing vibe. It opens with a burst of citrus, mint, and fruity notes, creating a bright and cooling first impression. As it develops, aquatic accords and soft woods appear, giving it a smooth, masculine, and easy-to-wear character. Performance is one of its strongest points, lasting around 8–10 hours with strong projection, especially in the first few hours. It is perfect for spring and summer, making it a great choice for everyday wear, school, casual occasions, and outdoor activities. One of its biggest advantages is its great value for money. It provides a high-quality fresh scent with impressive performance without reaching luxury fragrance prices. The only downside is that the fresh, aquatic style is quite common, so it may not feel as unique as some other fragrances. Overall, Hawas Ice is a fantastic option for anyone who wants a clean, refreshing, compliment-getting fragrance with excellent performance. 9.1/10.

All of these snobs in the comments. I let mine macerate for many months and had to revise my review. I also received 3 random compliments, making this my most complimented cologne now. There is a reason this is one of Hawas top selling colognes. This fragrance is an absolute banger. Sure if you’re much older (45-50+) it might not be your vibe, but for everyone else, this is an EASY blind buy. Sweet, fresh, but somehow feels “icy” as well. This is an easy reach cologne that can be applied daily and for any occasion throughout the year. Snobs shit on it because their $400 niche fragrance smells like used socks and grass and no one but themselves like it. If you take care of yourself and are confident, this WILL get you compliments and positive attention. This is a cologne that WOMEN and GIRLS enjoy, not other men.

This is my first perfume ever. Got it as a gift and i love it a lot when i first used it the smell was kinda synthetic but after a couple days it was normal. on the opening i get a minty fresh bergamot note and after 20 mins a plum note and it dries down to a musky sweet almost vanilla like. The performance is great i get 8-9 hours and the projection is also very good from the people ive asked. The bottle is simple but very nice and the cap is very good only problem is the color degrades pretty fast. the atomizer is very nice for a standart atomizer. I use this as a daily and ive used like 5-10ml in 2 weeks. This was also kind of a blind buy i didnt like the scent of it on paper but i convinced myself it would smell good on skin and it worked overall: performance: 9/10 projection: 9.5/10

This one reminds me of the DNA of certain fragrances such as Acqua Di Gio Absolu (now extinct), Bad Boy Cobalt, Y EDP with some Invictus in between. Designer quality (no "middle eastern" vibes), SUPER likeable, and though it is sweet, it is a synthetic fruity but fresh kind of sweet, indeed done perfectly, never cloying unless over sprayed (I do 4-5), definitely blind buy safe unless you hate mass appealing, fresh, sweet, mildly woody fragrances. I could see this being worn everywhere but the most formal events; day, night, spring, summer (mind the sprays), even winter, a truly jack-of-all-trades, but definitely shining on a spring/summer evening date. I concur with the hype behind this, and for the price I paid (35 USD), an absolute steal, 10/10 would buy again.

Kim ne derse desin blind buy bir parfüm , ekstra parfümün açılışında karşılayan elma da ağız sulandıran cinsten bence Türkiyede 2000-3000 civarına alınabilecek gayet yerinde bir parfüm paranız varsa invuctus alın ama bence yazlık parfüm ihtiyacınız için gayet yerinde ve f/p parfümü diyebiliriz ki Türkiye'de ki vergi olaylarından sonra en ucuz designer parfümün 7000-8000 tl olduğunu düşünülürse yerinde bir seçim olacaktır , kiminin bütçesi yeter o zaman daha fazla seçenek olacaktır fakat öğrenci veya parfüme 10.000-15.000 tl vermek istemeyen biri varsa blind buy bir seçenek tek handikabı gerçekten dinledirme isteyen bir parfüm aldığım zamandan bu yana 2 ay dinlendi , dinlendikten sonra gerçekten koku olgunlaştı diyebilirim.

At this point everyone knows it's like Hawas with little extra freshness at the top and little more sweetness during the dry down. I just came here to report what beast of a fragrance this despite being a daytime only freshie. I received a compliment exactly 14 hrs after I wore it at 8 am in the morning. It wasn't even by someone standing close to me. I had spent half the day outdoor when the temperature was 38°C (100°F) and 14 hrs later, a compliment. I had sprayed 3X on my shirt and 1X behind my neck. That's about it. Disclaimer: Mine is the August 2024 batch. If you're under 30 and you enjoy a good sweet bubblegummy freshie, buy it. It lasts longer than it's needed to.

Just tested this today - honestly my new favourite fragrance. It's very hyped up, and there is a VERY high risk of being scammed with counterfeit products (as i got scammed out of $70AUD js last week) BUT the real fragrance is incredible. Bought the real product right after testing in store - the opening reminds me of YSL Y EDP with the apple and bergamot, and the end notes smell warmer but still like a fresh apple with a slight hint of plum. Overall - AMAZING school/work/gym fragrance, will 100% be my main fragrance. It lasts all day, strongly recommend getting - BUT do your research to make sure the product is real. Smell: 10/10 Longevity: 9/10 Projection: 7/10

This cologne is amazing, I have gotten many compliments with it. a lot of people suggest maceration waiting 2 months before using it. You do not need to do this if your curious how old the cologne is just look up the batch code. Many people say this cologne is terrible, let me tell you something they are 100% gatekeeping it. Ever since the hype of the cologne lots of people have been buying this cologne and its been causing inflation for this cologne. The reason why are they are gatekeeping it is to prevent more inflation with this cologne. DO NOT LISTEN TO THEM

Hawas ice is an amazing 9/10 I used to hate on hawas ice due to how common the scent profile is, but now I absolutely love it. Pros: ice is a performance demon, my mom said it was projecting over 8 ft away. It also lasts around 8 hours on my skin. It’s extremely mass appealing no one will hate this but as a flip side it becomes way too common. Cons: a very good chance you will smell something similar. Definitely not signature scent worthy. Weird plum note I don’t like. Misconceptions: I don’t get the extreme sweetness people talk about, it’s just a lot of fruits

I was already a huge fan of the original Hawas, but this Ice version, I love it. The sillage and longevity are absolutely nuclear; I’m talking 10+ hours of constant compliments every time I wear it. It just smells cleaner, fresher, and somehow even more addictive. There's one pretty major downside if you live in Dubai and honestly, it's becoming a global problem. This stuff is everywhere. You literally smell it in the malls, on the metro, walking down the street. It has become the new signature scent of Dubai!

Rasasi Hawas Ice is one of the best fragrances in my collection. Fresh, addictive, energetic, and incredibly versatile. The performance is outstanding, with strong projection and excellent longevity, especially in hot weather. Whether it's the office, a casual outing, or a night with friends, it simply works. Easy to wear, crowd-pleasing, and enjoyable from start to finish. If I had to rebuild my collection, this would be one of the first bottles I'd buy again. 8.5/10 - Pure crowd-pleasing perfection. ❄️🔥

I have been debating with myself for months, whether to get the original Hawas or this Hawas Ice variant. Lately the price has come down on the Ice version, to around 30 euros, so as soon as I saw this, I hurried up and blind bought this. And I am glad I did! It is a wonderful and fresh scent, but the with a personality that allows it to stand out, making it signature scent worthy, thanks to the apple opening and musky dry down. Stellar performance and value!

pretty good fragrance, a little bit of synthetic at first but the dry down is good. At first you get kind of like the moss, powder type smell but then it becomes a bubblegum like smell and really fresh. Perfect for the summer but its kind of like for the younger gen. And yes, its got a good longevity, 3-4 hours with hella projection and then lasting for like 7-8 hours. But the smell can definitely become boring after a while because its nothing too exciting.

An amazing scent at an amazing price that lasts an amazing amount of time for a summer scent. I’m so impressed by Ice and would highly recommend it to anyone. I don’t think it’s overpowering at all despite it being so strong. It’s just not a heavy scent and the people around you will love it and want to know what you’re wearing. My bottle didn’t need any maceration but if it gets any better with time it’ll be legendary! A very safe blind buy in my opinion.

In a world full of lackluster-performing freshies Hawas Ice stands at the top with strong performance carried over from the original. As someone who believed Hawas was average smelling I believe Hawas Ice with the extra added citruses makes it a much fresher scent improving the Hawas DNA and making it better than the OG. I highly recommend waiting until the price lowers on this because it absolutely will and then it's definitely worth a pickup.

Scent: 7/10 (great freshie, strong apple and citrus note, slightly sweet) Sillage: 8/10 (2 feet scent bubble, strong projection for 4 hours, skin scent at 8 hours) Atomizer: 7/10 (Good for a budget fragrance) This is strictly for summer, its also a room filler. Quality control is quite bad (parts of bottle constantly come off.). Must be macerated for 1-2months for optimal performance and scent. Max sprays - [4-6]

Gets better with time. The opening is synthetic and sweet... almost like candy. Lasts my entire shift at work. I still smell it on my wrist in the morning. For me, it is too cloying for a tropical country. Otherwise, it is a really safe fragrance if you like to smell good and young. Longevity - 10 hrs Projection - 10/10 Didn't even bother to try a tester, I bought the entire 100 ml bottle and didn't regret it.
