Lion

Lion by Rayhaan is a big, warm masculine from 2024 that people describe as spicy, gourmand, woody and aromatic all at once, with half also finding it green and citrus. The combination suggests a fresh herbal opening that falls into a dense, sweet, spicy warmth, and the notes bear that out.

It starts with mint, pear, bergamot and lavender, cool and clean, with the pear adding a crisp sweetness. The heart is where it turns bold: cinnamon brings heat, clary sage a dry herbal edge, and cumin a warm, slightly animalic spice that gives the scent its character. The base of vanilla, patchouli, amber and cedar is sweet, earthy and long, closing the fresh opening in a thick, woody warmth.

Most wearers report it as long lasting, and a fifth describe it as eternal; sillage is strong for most. It is voted for winter and autumn above other seasons and more for night than day. This is a cold-weather evening scent for someone who wants to be noticed.
