What wearers say
“Smells very similar to the original dna, less on the lavender though for sure but the opening and dry down are almost 90% identical, an untrained nose will not notice the difference.Beast mode though, actually my strongest fragrance, no more than 3 sprays and you're good to go. So glad i purchased it, going to let it macerate and mature more till next winter!Cheers.”
“It has a interesting top note smell in the first minute that is 90%similar to jpg which to my nose smells very weird and not pleasant but after just a minute of that the middle and top notes shine and it is one of the best smelling fragrances I have ever smelled. The chocolate really puts it apart from the jpg that it dupes. I don’t know what they put on this but it smells so good and has 13+ hours in longevity and huge sillage and projection. This is my second favorite of the Hawas line now.”
“Opens very nice with that vanilla scent. Lasts a long time, well it is Hawas cologne after all. Doesn't project a lot, but when it dries down, it is a sweet vanilla flavor. I pick up on the dry down the smells of vanilla, mint and lavender. This is a beautiful smelling cologne and for the price point, it's definitely worth the buy.”
