The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2021, Hawa by Swiss Arabian is an Oriental Floral fragrance for women crafted by perfumer Christian Provenzano. The composition opens with mandarin orange and cardamom, creating a bright, spicy contrast that gives way to the rich floral heart of jasmine, rose, and ylang-ylang. This floral warmth is further enhanced by sweet plum and bergamot, before settling into a base of ambergris, musk, and woody notes like sandalwood and cedar. The result is a fragrance that balances freshness with deep, sensual undertones.
Apply Hawa in light layers — its spiciness can be overwhelming if over-applied. The base notes take about an hour to fully bloom, so a second layer after that will keep it fresh throughout the day. This fragrance is best worn close to skin for the most intimate experience.
