Ice - Inspired by Hawas Ice
Ice — Cool Confidence in a Bottle
Inspired by One of the Most Popular Fresh Middle Eastern Men's Fragrances | Apple, Italian Lemon, Sicilian Bergamot, Plum, Orange Blossom, Cardamom, Musk, Amber & Driftwood | From ₹149 | For Men
Starting from ₹149
Ice is a crisp, fresh, fruity and aromatic men's fragrance — inspired by Hawas Ice, the 2023 Middle Eastern fragrance that became a summer favourite for its icy, juicy freshness and its seriously impressive performance.
Crisp apple, zesty Italian lemon and sparkling Sicilian bergamot open with a burst of cool, juicy energy. A heart of sweet plum, orange blossom and aromatic cardamom adds depth and character. And a clean base of musk, amber and driftwood leaves a fresh yet substantial trail that lasts all day — even in the heat.
Ice — for the man who stays cool under pressure. Fresh. Sharp. Effortlessly confident.
Ice is crafted by Nikhil Singhal, Founder & Master Perfumer of World of Perfumers. Trained in Dubai — where fresh fragrances must perform in extreme heat — and working with oils sourced from Dubai, France and Switzerland, Nikhil personally balanced its icy apple-citrus opening against the warm amber-driftwood base so that every Indian man can stay fresh from just ₹149.
Why Nikhil Singhal Created Ice
When Nikhil Singhal set out to create Ice for World of Perfumers, he was working with a brief close to his own experience: capture the DNA of Hawas Ice — a fresh, fruity, aromatic Arabian fragrance built around apple, citrus, plum, cardamom, musk and driftwood, and designed to stay fresh and last all day in Middle Eastern heat. And make it available from ₹149.
Nikhil Singhal is the founder and master perfumer of World of Perfumers — India's finest destination for inspired luxury fragrances. Trained in Dubai and drawing on fragrance oils sourced from Dubai, France, and Switzerland, Nikhil knows exactly what it takes for a fresh fragrance to survive real heat. His vision with Ice was clear: every Indian man — whether he is riding to college in Chennai, commuting to the office in Hyderabad, hitting the gym in Delhi or heading out on a humid evening in Mumbai — deserves a fragrance that keeps him feeling cool and smelling great all day. From just ₹149.
With Ice, Nikhil faced the defining technical challenge of fresh perfumery: making freshness last. Citrus and apple are beautiful but fleeting — in Indian heat they can vanish within an hour. Push the sweetness too far and the fragrance turns sticky and cloying in humidity. The secret of Hawas Ice is its structure: a bright, juicy apple-citrus top, anchored by plum and cardamom in the heart, and locked in by clean musk, amber and driftwood that keep the freshness on the skin for hours. Nikhil calibrated the apple-citrus brightness against the plum-cardamom heart, kept the sweetness light so it stays clean in humidity, and sourced apple, citrus, plum, cardamom, musk and driftwood accords built for Indian summers.
Every bottle of Ice that leaves the World of Perfumers workshop carries that intention: to give every Indian man the cool confidence, the clean energy and the fresh, long-lasting trail of a fragrance built for the heat.
Ice is not just an inspired fragrance. It is Nikhil Singhal's belief — made wearable — that staying fresh shouldn't cost a fortune. That apple, citrus and cool musk belong to every man in India. From ₹149.
What Does the Original Hawas Ice Actually Smell Like?
Hawas Ice is a fresh, fruity aromatic — crisp, juicy and cool. The first spray is all freshness: crunchy green apple, zesty lemon and sparkling bergamot, with an icy, almost minty-cool feel. As it settles, sweet plum, soft orange blossom and aromatic cardamom add warmth and depth. The drydown is clean and polished — white musk, a touch of amber and smooth driftwood that keep it fresh on the skin for hours.
The overall impression: cool, clean and fruity on top, smooth and slightly sweet underneath — a modern freshie with real staying power.
Fragrance Profile — Notes & DNA
Apple, Italian Lemon & Sicilian Bergamot — Ice opens like a cold drink on a hot day. Apple brings a crisp, juicy, green freshness. Italian lemon adds a bright, zesty sparkle. Sicilian bergamot rounds it with a smooth, aromatic citrus. Together they create an instantly cooling, energising opening.
Plum, Orange Blossom & Cardamom — The heart gives Ice its depth. Plum adds a soft, juicy, slightly sweet fruitiness. Orange blossom brings a clean, luminous floral note. Cardamom — elaichi — adds a cool, aromatic spice that keeps the fragrance fresh and masculine.
Musk, Amber & Driftwood — The base is what makes Ice last. Musk gives a clean, freshly-showered softness. Amber adds a gentle warmth. Driftwood brings a smooth, slightly salty, airy woodiness. Together they hold the freshness on your skin for hours.
The Scent Journey — Hour by Hour
🍏 First 15 Minutes
Crisp apple, zesty lemon and sparkling bergamot burst through — icy, juicy and refreshing. An instant mood-lifter. Apply 2–3 sprays to the chest and neck.
🫐 30 Min – 2 Hours
Sweet plum, orange blossom and aromatic cardamom come through. Ice becomes smoother and more rounded — still fresh, now with more character.
🪵 2 – 6 Hours
Clean musk, soft amber and driftwood take over. The fragrance stays fresh and polished — the clean, just-showered feel people notice when you walk past.
✨ 6–12 Hours
A clean, musky, softly woody trail lingers on skin and clothes. Ice is made with a 30–40% perfume-oil concentration, built for strong projection and long-lasting wear of 8–12 hours — even in the heat.
Compliment Factor
🧊 Compliment Score: 9.0/10 — Fresh, Clean & Easy to Love

💡 Why Hawas Ice Became a Summer Favourite: Most fresh fragrances smell great for an hour and then disappear — especially in hot, humid weather. Hawas Ice was built differently. Its crisp apple-citrus opening gives instant freshness, its plum and cardamom heart adds body, and its musk-amber-driftwood base locks it all in for hours. The result is a fresh fragrance that actually performs — which is exactly why it became so popular in the Middle East, and why it is perfect for India.
That icy, fruity, all-day-fresh DNA is now available in India from ₹149 at World of Perfumers.
🔹 Ice vs the Original Hawas: The original Hawas (2015) is an aquatic-fruity fresh fragrance. Hawas Ice (2023) is its cooler, crisper, fruitier sibling — with apple, plum and cardamom. Ice by World of Perfumers is inspired by Hawas Ice.
If you love Hawas Ice — Ice is the fragrance for you. If you want a fresh, long-lasting summer fragrance that doesn't break the bank — Ice is the perfect place to start.
