A tropical-floral fragrance with a sparkling citrus-fruity burst of pineapple, orange, and grapefruit that transitions into a warm woody-amber base. Inspired by sunlit beaches and breezy evenings, it offers 4-6 hours of moderate longevity with strong projection in the first hour, making it perfect for casual summer wear. Often compared to Jean Paul Gaultier Le Beau Le Parfum but fresher and brighter with less coconut.

✍️ Our Take
Rasasi Hawas Malibu lands right in that easygoing sweet spot where fresh meets sun-kissed and a little bit creamy. On your skin, the opening is bright and juicy — pineapple, orange, and grapefruit hit first with a zesty sparkle that feels like cold citrus juice in the heat. It has that holiday energy straight away, the kind that makes you think of sunlit beaches and a breezy late afternoon by the coast. As it settles, the heart brings in a soft aromatic lift from lavender, with orris adding a smooth, slightly powdery elegance, while amber gives the composition a gentle warmth that stops it from feeling too sharp. The dry-down is where it becomes more addictive, with tonka bean, musk, cashmeran, and patchouli creating a clean, warm, slightly woody trail that sits close enough for everyday wear but still projects confidently in the first hour. With moderate longevity of around 4–6 hours and moderate sillage, it’s a solid choice for the office, a casual date, or a summer braai when you want to smell polished without trying too hard. At R995, it offers very good value for a versatile unisex summer scent. This is best suited for you if you want a fresh, crowd-pleasing fragrance with a sunny, modern feel.

The winter weight for summer signatures.
Adds chestnut-vanilla warmth and smoke to lighter scents — converts a daytime signature into something evening-ready in cold weather.
Layering Tip
Spray the heavier scent first, then the lighter one on top. Start with two scents — more than three quickly becomes muddled. Always test on skin first.
