Rasasi Hawas Boa: The 10th Anniversary Hawas
Hawas Boa
Fruity WoodyHawas Boa opens on Madagascar pomelo, prickly pear and green apple — a dewy, slightly tart fruit accord lifted further by orange blossom, before the fragrance shifts into tonka bean, driftwood and olibanum. That middle stretch is where Hawas Boa earns its "distinct character" billing: the driftwood and olibanum bring a dry, almost smoky edge that keeps the sweetness in check rather than letting it dominate. Deciding between the two newest Hawas? See Hawas Boa vs Hawas Sapphire. The base of vanilla and vetiver closes things out warm and grounded, which is why Rasasi and the release itself pitch this as an autumn-winter, evening-leaning fragrance rather than a daytime freshie. It's built on the same fruity-sweet- woody DNA that's made the wider Hawas and Rasasi range a repeat purchase for a lot of customers, but pushed into darker, more layered territory for the anniversary release.
Why Hawas Boa Exists: 10 Years of Hawas
Hawas Boa is Part II of Rasasi's 10th Anniversary Hawas project — a release built specifically to mark a decade of the Hawas line rather than to slot in as a standard new arrival. Rasasi handed creative direction to fragrance creator Fragranceflan and worked with perfumer Théo Belmas to build the composition, with the brief described as taking Hawas's familiar energy "somewhere unexpected": dewy dark fruit meeting musky, woody florals rather than repeating the brighter, sweeter profile most Hawas fans already know. The bottle carries that anniversary framing through into presentation too — a green snakeskin-effect glass with a matching rigid box, designed to read as a considered, gift-ready object rather than a standard spray bottle.

Who Hawas Boa Is For
Hawas Boa is presented by Rasasi as a men's fragrance, though as with any scent, how it wears comes down to personal taste and skin chemistry rather than labelling alone — fragrance is personal, and the profile itself (fruit, tonka, driftwood, vanilla, vetiver) isn't inherently gender-restrictive. It's pitched as an evening and cold-weather fragrance, suited to autumn and winter wear, date nights and formal occasions where a warmer, woodier sweetness reads better than a fresh citrus opening. If you already reach for Hawas fragrances for their sweet-fruity-woody character, Hawas Boa is the anniversary variation built specifically to push that profile darker and more textured, rather than a lighter reformulation of what's already in the range.
