Noel Thomas calls it luminous.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe name comes from Palawan, the island in the Philippines.

There are no coconut or sweet tropical notes in the profile, so don’t expect a creamy beach scent. Calamansi is tangy and sharp, and it is brightest in the opening, so it suits people who enjoy zesty citrus. As with any fragrance, skin chemistry and weather change how long it lasts and how the citrus and woods balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rayhaan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFragrance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Palawan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollaboration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Noel Thomas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerfumer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Margherita Carini\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConcentration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Eau de Parfum (EDP)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLaunched:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 2026\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGender:\u003c\/strong\u003e Unisex\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScent Family:\u003c\/strong\u003e Citrus with fresh, fruity, aquatic and woody facets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerformance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReviews:\u003c\/strong\u003e Early reviewers on TikTok describe it as refreshing, and at least one calls it very strong.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest Seasons:\u003c\/strong\u003e Summer and spring, and warm days in early autumn.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest Occasions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Everyday wear, the office in warm weather, weekends, holidays and beach days.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow to Wear:\u003c\/strong\u003e Apply two to four sprays to skin, such as the neck and chest, and top up on hot days.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Brand\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRayhaan is a Dubai-based fragrance house with a large catalogue of Eau de Parfum releases across fresh, fruity, floral, woody and spicy styles.
