—————————————-

 

‏THE MIRA TAKLA TRAGEDY. Cairo-

 

‏born Egyptian Parliamentarian and

 

‏Egyptologist Mira Takla created the

 

‏perfume “Vallee des Rois” (Valley of

 

‏the Kings) in 1988 after translating

 

‏heiroglyphic perfume formulas from

 

‏temple walls at Edfu, Dendera and Philae. Her wish to cast a light on the

 

‏opulence and genius of ancient

 

‏Egyptian dynasties resulted in this

 

‏perfume which was sold exclusively

 

‏through Harrods in London and

 

‏Galleries Lafayette in Paris. However,

 

‏its commercial life was short lived.

 

‏Takla spent $1.3M on organising a

 

‏titanic PR event for the ‘Vallee des

 

‏Rois’ launch; inviting 30 renowned

 

‏beauty and fashion journalists from

 

‏the UK on a 5 night adventure staying

 

‏at the celubrious Heliopolis Sheraton

 

‏Hotel northeast of Cairo. Takla spent

 

‏months planning a luxury cruise

 

‏down the Nile from Luxor to Aswan,

 

‏where - on an island in the middle of

 

‏the Nile - bottles of perfume had

 

‏been hidden in the bullrushes for

 

‏the visiting beauty writers to

 

‏discover. The press jaunt was set to

 

‏culminate in a lavish banquet in the

 

‏Aida ballroom of the Marriot Hotel in

 

‏Cairo. Guests at the dinner were to be

 

‏showered with gifts at the event,

 

‏including the sumptuously packaged

 

‏perfume. These plans, however, never came to fruition. Just 4 hours after

 

‏checking into the Heliopolis Sheraton

 

‏Hotel, embers from an outdoor open-

 

‏air fire pit ignited a canopy swathed

 

‏in fabric. With gusting desert winds

 

‏that fanned the flames, the entire

 

‏Hotel soon caught alight, and flames

 

‏lapped from windows on every floor.

 

‏In an era devoid of smoke detectors

 

‏and sprinkler systems, pandemonium

 

‏broke out as hotel guests fled for

 

‏their lives; the entire hotel now

 

‏ablaze. Tragically, when the flames

 

‏were finally quashed, 19 people had

 

‏perished, including 3 journalists from

 

‏Takla's party. The lives of the three

 

‏journalists, the hundreds of

 

‏thousands of pounds worth of lost

 

‏possessions and the investment of

 

‏more than $3 million dollars in the

 

‏perfume by Mira Takla meant that the

 

‏launch of the fragrance was also

 

‏quashed, and the scent never

 

‏reached its full commercial potential

 

‏before being retired shortly after.

 

‏Bottles of “Vallee des Rois” are scant

 

‏and command stratospheric prices

 

‏on the internet.
