Helwa

Helwa by Ahwaz Fragrance is a rich, sweet gourmand scent centered on vanilla, caramel, and toffee, with a warm, powdery, and inviting character. It evokes the feeling of a confectioner's kitchen—creamy, indulgent, and slightly decadent—making it ideal for cozy moments, winter wear, or when seeking a comforting, sweet fragrance bubble. The scent is seamless and well-blended, with a maximum's strong toffee-vanilla intensity on the skin. Some compare it to Vaniglia Mazzolari, La Maison Dela, or Tihota, noting its similar DNA but amplified sweetness and performance. The scent is most effective in cooler weather, particularly autumn and winter, and has been described as lasting with impressive longevity despite some claims to the contrary. It receives nearly universal praise from fans of sweet perfumes, with many calling it a 'heavenly' or 'signature' scent. However, the fragrance’s performance is debated—while some report long-lasting sillage and a soft trail, others find it faint and fleeting, especially in warmer conditions or after several hours. Its high price point is consistently criticized, with many calling it overpriced for its composition, especially when similar alternatives are available at lower cost. Still, Ahwaz’s customer service is widely praised, with many noting positive purchasing experiences and complimentary samples. The seller explicitly states this is an indulgent, gourmand-only fragrance and not for those seeking versatility or minimalist scent profiles.}
