Hawas La Mer
Aromatic woody eau de parfum for men · peppermint, mandarin, bergamot, blackcurrant, carrot, jasmine, fig, woody notes, and amber
A menthol and citrus top note, a heart note where carrot blends with blackcurrant and jasmine, and a base note of fig and amber wood. Nine notes that create a green, fruity scent unlike any other in the line.
Hawas La Mer by Rasasi: a woody-aromatic fragrance where carrot meets blackcurrant
A 2026 release from Rasasi and the latest addition to the Hawas For Him line, Hawas La Mer is an aromatic woody eau de parfum for men, listed under barcode 614514331279. Its fragrance pyramid features nine notes: peppermint, mandarin, and bergamot at the top; blackcurrant, carrot, and jasmine at the heart; and fig, woody notes, and amber at the base. Its main accords are, in order, fruity, woody, sweet spicy, powdery, and green. Fragrantica rates its longevity at 6 hours and its sillage as strong, with a profile best suited for daytime wear and a clear preference for spring. Available as an authentic product at Parfumerie de Dubai.
The Green Fruit and the Root
The opening combines three fresh materials, each of a different nature. The peppermint has an almost cold sensation—that freshness that tingles the nostrils a little and isn't citrus; the mandarin sweets it with sugar; the bergamot a slice with its subtle bitterness. A clear, daytime fragrance that heralds the community’s favorite season.
The heart is where originality comes into play. The blackcurrant It has a green, tangy fruitiness, with a hint of bud that keeps it from tasting like jam. The jasmine adds its sun-kissed whiteness. But it is the carrot which is surprising: rarely mentioned, it imparts a root-like, earthy, and powdery scent, similar to iris. It is this note that accounts for the powdery accord ranked fourth by the community, whereas no other note in the fragrance pyramid could produce it.
The lining ensures a snug fit with the fig, a milky fruit whose aroma evokes both green leaves and sweet flesh, followed by woody notes and theamber that add warmth to the whole look. In the store, it’s displayed alongside Sea Or, another recent release whose name evokes the sea even though it contains no marine notes: both share this tendency to draw on the vocabulary of the ocean for a fragrance that does not incorporate its olfactory cues.

Performance and Portability
These values are based on votes from the Fragrantica community and not on laboratory measurements. The combination of a strong sillage and a 6-hour longevity describes a fragrance that stands out but doesn’t last all day: two sprays in the morning, and a third application in the mid-afternoon if needed. When applied to a shirt or jacket, the woody-amber base note lasts significantly longer than when applied to the skin.
Product sheet
Bottle design
The bottle echoes the silhouette of the Hawas line: a rectangular block with rounded corners, wide and flat, made of thick glass. The color is what makes it easily recognizable: a gradient from blue to green, from the sky to the emerald hue that extends from the pass down to the base.
On the facade, the name HAWAS appears in Latin letters beneath its Arabic calligraphy, followed by the words “For Him” and “LA MER.” The Rasasi logo appears at the bottom. The black hood, cylindrical, is encircled by a braided cord black, which gives the bottle its texture and makes it easy to hold—a detail that has become the line’s visual signature.
Hawas La Mer de Rasasi FAQ
What does a carrot have to do with perfume?
This isn’t the vegetable itself but its seeds, from which an essential oil is extracted that has long been used in perfumery. Its scent is earthy, root-like, and powdery, with a note very similar to iris—but significantly less expensive. It is used to add velvety richness and depth without resorting to sugar. In Hawas La Mer, it is this note that produces the powdery accord noted by the community—a quality that no other note in the fragrance pyramid could account for.
Does Hawas La Mer smell like the ocean?
Not in the sense of a marine scent. The fragrance contains no aquatic, salty, or iodine notes: the name and the blue-green gradient of the bottle reflect the identity of the variation, not the formula. What comes across as marine in this type of composition stems instead from the peppermint and citrus top notes, which create a sensation of fresh air. The fragrance is still classified as woody-aromatic.
What is the blackcurrant note?
Two facets coexist. The fruit imparts a red, tart, and juicy accord. The blackcurrant bud, on the other hand, is far more distinctive: green, sulfurous, almost animal-like—it is one of the most powerful ingredients in a perfumer’s palette, and just a few drops are enough. It is this dual nature that allows blackcurrant to serve as the fruity note while also enriching the green accord—two of the fragrance’s five main accords.
Is a fig a fruit or a leaf?
Both—and that’s what makes it interesting. The fig note in perfumery is a reconstruction that blends the fruit’s flesh—milky and slightly sweet—with the fig tree’s leaves—green, bitter, and almost milky. Placed in the base notes alongside woods and amber, it bridges the fruity heart with the warmth of the dry down, preventing the composition from ending on a dry woody note.
A strong scent that lasts for 6 hours: how much should you use?
This combination describes a fragrance that’s clearly noticeable to those around you but doesn’t last the whole day. Two sprays in the morning are more than enough—on the wrists and the base of the neck—and a third spray mid-afternoon will keep the scent going if the evening runs late. Applying too much in the morning won’t make the fragrance last any longer; it will only make the first few hours overpowering.
