Liquid Brun Limited Edition is a 2025 unisex Extrait built around cardamom, lavender and citrus, followed by orange blossom, guaiac wood and rose over vanilla, tonka bean, amber and oakmoss. It is a sweet spicy gourmand with a floral woody centre and an unusually powerful vanilla drydown.
Hawas Overdose is a warm spicy gourmand fragrance that takes the Hawas collection into rich vanilla, praline, chocolate and amber territory, creating one of the sweetest and most cold-weather-focused releases in the line.
