The Scent

The dark, intense turn in Rasasi's popular Hawas line. Bergamot, pineapple, and grapefruit open bright, then it grounds into patchouli, cedar, and jasmine over oakmoss, woods, and amber. Wearers often mention Nishane Hacivat when they smell it, and it shares some DNA with the Afnan Supremacy NOI too, just a bit darker and moodier. Strong projection and very long wear, a confident cool-weather scent for evenings, so a light hand goes a long way.

Worth Knowing

People have genuinely stopped others wearing this and asked if they had on Hacivat, a real compliment given how respected that niche release is.

Where It Came From

Launched in 2024, part of the broader Hawas family that's grown into one of Rasasi's most popular lines.

About Rasasi

Rasasi was founded in Dubai in 1979 by the late Haji Abdul Razzaque Kalsekar, who opened a small perfume shop in Murshid Bazar with a simple but different idea: rather than just importing European scents like everyone else, he wanted to celebrate the Gulf's own rich perfume traditions. His six sons carried the business forward from there, and today Rasasi runs over 165 stores across the GCC and sells in more than 60 countries. It's widely considered one of the UAE's leading fragrance houses.
