What does Hawas Elixir / هوس smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it is worn mostly for nights out and evenings; summer is the least chosen season. It sits between masculine and feminine, as a unisex scent.

It opens with mint, artemisia and bergamot, fresh and a little spicy. The heart brings lavender, benzoin and dark chocolate, where it turns gourmand. The base of white musk, vanilla and tonka bean is creamy and sweet, with a synthetic-tinged oriental character throughout. Jean Paul Gaultier Le Mâle Elixir and Atralia Elixir have a close profile.
