How does Rayhaan Equinox smell?
Grapefruit and orange blossom start Rayhaan Equinox. Grapefruit is tart, juicy and slightly bitter, while orange blossom is soft, white and honeyed, so the opening is both sharp and gentle. Sambac jasmine and white tea form the heart: the jasmine is rich and a little fruity, the tea airy, clean and lightly green.
Sandalwood and vanilla make up the base. Sandalwood is creamy and smooth, vanilla warm and sweet. With only two base notes, the finish is soft and simple. The scent moves from citrus and blossom through jasmine and tea to a creamy, sweet and woody close.
Who is Rayhaan Equinox for?
Going by the notes alone, the character is light and clean: tart fruit, tea, white flowers and a gentle wood. It suits anyone who likes a soft, polished scent without anything heavy or dark.
