Pharaoh Collection Tobacco Bundle 2 x 80ml EDP — Maison Des Parfums

This bundle brings together the two flagship releases in Maison Des Parfums' Pharaoh Collection, each inspired by a different niche icon. Pharaoh Ramses II draws on Atelier des Ors' Larmes du Désert, which retails for $369 AUD for 100ml. Pharaoh Cleopatra VII draws on BDK Parfums' Tabac Rose, which retails for around $370 AUD for 100ml. Together, either inspiration fragrance alone would cost more than this entire two-bottle bundle.

The Story

Named after two of ancient Egypt's most legendary rulers, this collection pairs resinous amber-incense power with smoky rose-tobacco sensuality. Pharaoh Ramses II channels Larmes du Désert's Middle Eastern-inspired amber and incense tradition into a composition built around royal chambers and ancient treasure. Pharaoh Cleopatra VII channels Tabac Rose's dark, textured take on rose into a scent built around regal seduction and timeless power. Together they represent the two faces of the Pharaoh Collection — commanding resinous depth on one side, warm gourmand sensuality on the other.

The Scent

Pharaoh Ramses II opens with cypress, incense, labdanum and benzoin, a deep, resinous, immediately commanding introduction. The heart of amber, guaiac wood and elemi builds rich, smoky warmth, before settling into a base of vetiver, sandalwood, musk and cedarwood — a smooth, earthy, confident finish.

Pharaoh Cleopatra VII opens with lemon, plum and pepper, a bright, juicy introduction with a spiced edge. The heart of cinnamon, chocolate and rose turns it gourmand and sensual, before settling into a base of cistus, tobacco and patchouli — a resinous, smoky, earthy dry-down.

An Honest Note on Performance and Opening

Both fragrances open with real intensity rather than easing in gently — Ramses II with a resinous incense burst, Cleopatra VII with a bright citrus-plum spike that gives way to gourmand richness within 15 to 20 minutes. Neither is a subtle, slow-build composition, so if you prefer fragrances that ease in quietly, expect both to announce themselves immediately. Both are built on bases (vetiver-sandalwood-musk for Ramses II, tobacco-patchouli for Cleopatra VII) known for strong, long-lasting performance.

Pro Tip

Both fragrances in this bundle open with real intensity, so one or two sprays is plenty for each — give them 15 to 20 minutes to settle before forming a final impression, as the true character of both lives in their rich, developed heart and base notes rather than the opening burst.
