Lavender and mint, spiced with cinnamon and cumin
Rayhaan Lion is an Eau de Parfum that opens with lavender, pear, mint and bergamot, builds a spiced heart of cinnamon, clary sage and cumin, and finishes on vanilla, amber, cedarwood and patchouli. Cumin and cinnamon are strong characters in a perfume, so a 10 ml decant is a prudent first step.

I really appreciate that I found a shop that has a wide range of authentic perfumes,fast delivery,great communication and very good prices. Thanks for everything!
The composition
The curve shows the order in which the notes come forward, not their strength.
On the skin
Lavender, pear, mint and bergamot open the perfume. Mint and bergamot bring energy, pear a modern, subtle sweetness and lavender a classic aromatic base. FragranceGems describes the first impression as lively and inviting.
Cinnamon, clary sage and cumin make the heart. Cinnamon is warm and sweet, cumin earthy and a little animalic, clary sage herbal. This is the boldest part of the pyramid, and the one that decides whether you like it or not.
Vanilla, amber, cedarwood and patchouli form the base. Vanilla and amber give sweetness and warmth, cedarwood adds dry wood, and patchouli brings earth. The finish is warm and woody, and it softens the stronger spices of the heart.
Testing it
Apply to a clean forearm during a normal working day, since FragranceGems lists work and daily wear. Notice how the mint fades, how the cumin shows, and when the vanilla arrives. Repeat on an evening to compare, and write down whether the cumin feels comfortable.
For men who like aromatic, spicy perfumes with a warm base. FragranceGems tags it as moderate, for daily wear, evenings and work, in autumn and winter. If cumin or cinnamon in a perfume makes you hesitate, the sample shows how they are handled here.
Cumin and cinnamon polarise more than most notes, so it pays to meet them on skin before choosing a bottle. Rayhaan has no hand in this decant, which is not an official brand sample. Should it win you over, you can reach the full bottle from here.

Read how we fill your sampleQuestions
Cumin is one of three notes in the heart, together with cinnamon and clary sage. How strongly it comes across on you is exactly what the sample is for.
It is a 10 ml glass spray vial, filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us at our end, so there is no doubt about what is inside.
FragranceGems lists work among the occasions and rates the intensity as moderate. Try it on a normal day and see whether the spices stay comfortable for you and those around you.
The brand
Rayhaan makes Eau de Parfum with a warm, oriental signature, and FragranceGems has carried the house long enough to sell a wide range of its perfumes as samples. The range swings from tropical and aquatic scents such as Aquatica and Pacific Aura to dense gourmands like Pharaoh, so the name on the bottle is not a reliable guide. A few samples, worn on separate days, are. The Rayhaan perfumes described in this text are Eau de Parfum.

Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
