Penhaligon's Cairo
A warm, spicy-woody fragrance that opens with saffron and cypriol, moves through labdanum, rose and incense, and rests on patchouli, cedarwood, sandalwood and vanilla. The Pharoah is our own interpretation of that style: spicy and resinous at first, then smooth, woody and softly sweet.
Fragrance Profile: Warm spicy woody
Top Notes: Saffron, Cypriol Heart Notes: Cistus Labdanum, Rose, Incense Base Notes: Patchouli, Cedarwood, Sandalwood, Vanilla
Character and mood: Regal, mysterious and enveloping, a good fit for evenings and cooler weather.
The Pharoah is our own original composition, inspired by the fragrance family that Cairo belongs to. It is not an exact replica. Penhaligon's and Cairo are registered trademarks of their owners; D&E Fragrances is not affiliated with or endorsed by them.

Being upfront about the comparison
The Pharoah is our own original composition inspired by Penhaligon's Cairo — it is not a clone or a replica, and no inspired-by fragrance is. What you get is the same unisex scent direction and note structure, blended by hand in the UK as a long-lasting Extrait de Parfum.
Worn side by side you would recognise the family resemblance straight away, and you would also notice differences in the opening and in how it settles on your skin. We think that is a fair trade at this price, but we would rather you know exactly what you are buying.
