The review

On paper, Hawas Thunder is a reasonable bet if you want MYSLF L'Absolu for less.

Rasasi sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is MYSLF L'Absolu's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $60 per 100ml it costs 63% less than MYSLF L'Absolu — the cheapest of 2 twins we can price.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Value7.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Rasasi publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

The original opens on bergamot and cardamom, turns to orange blossom, jasmine and iris, and settles into vanilla, patchouli and amberwood. That is the brief Hawas Thunder is working from.

Top

  • bergamot
  • cardamom

  • orange blossom

Base

  • vanilla

  • amberwood
MYSLF at its densest, orange blossom buried in tonka, vanilla and dark resin.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
