Hawas Fire Rasasi

This is the Hawas Ice equivalent but for winter, very strong and amber heavy, it's basically Gissah Imperial Valley but without the Oud note, which makes it much better to me. This is easily a daily winter fragrance, the listed notes from Rasasi are strange, Clary Sage in the opening feels like Saffron for me. Which I do like, the dry down is an amber heavy which if you hate amber then avoid this fragrance since the dry down is very amber heavy. Very nice if you want an Idea on how it exactly smells, it's Imperial Valley but without Oud and more Amber, better than Assaf Wild Colt to me, which is also taking that DNA. As for performance, no issues in both projection and longevity it's very strong, be careful if you use this fragrance in high heat, it has some fresh aspect but not like Ice so don't overspray in summer and only use it in night. It is seriously strong and you may go nose blind to it but trust me everyone can smell you. This feels like it's name fire, very attention grabbing amber/ fresh and warm Spicy fragrance. In short, if you are familiar with the DNA of Imperial Valley but hate the Oud note, this is for you. If not, then sample and don't blind buy, especially if you are under 20. This may be too mature for you. Either way, great fragrance from Rasasi, probably there 2nd or 3rd best after Ice.
