Description

Pharaoh by Rayhaan is an oriental vanilla fragrance creation designed for men and women. Launched in 2026, this scent features an olfactive structure where the top notes reveal an alcoholic accord accompanied by cardamom, saffron, and cade oil. The heart of the composition is built on coffee, suede, and benzoin notes, while the base awakens with a warm blend of…

Fragrantica says it’s unisex, but it’s the opposite: it smells 100% masculine. I sometimes wonder what woman would identify with these descriptions. I see it for people aged 32 to 55; it’s not for teenagers or young people looking for easy compliments like bubblegum. It requires maturity to handle the saffron and liquor, though everyone wears what they want, this is just my opinion. It’s for winter and deep autumn (below 15°C), for night (8 PM to 2 AM), with absolute nocturnal vibes. It evolves slowly and heavily. The opening alcohol and spice notes are way too strong for the office at 9 AM. It belongs in open spaces at night or well-ventiated interiors; it lasts 9 to 11 hours on skin with insane projection for the first two hours (about 2 meters). It doesn’t ask for permission; it enters the room before you do. After the fourth hour, it stays in a personal one-armed bubble, but very dense. 6 sprays (heavy application). Do women like it? It’s polarizing. Seductive for those seeking classic, robust, and protective masculinity; the vanilla and tonka soften the rough start. Problematic for those who prefer clean or soapy scents; the smoky leather and alcohol can sound careless or excessively heavy. Low versatility (2/10). It behaves like a niche perfume: not for the gym, not for dates in small enclosed places (unless you use very little), and it’s a disaster in tropical climates. It’s a collection piece for specific moments, not a blind buy or a safe choice.
