Victor Clement Georges Philippe Loret (1 September 1859 – 3 February 1946) was a French Egyptologist.

His father, Clément Loret, was a professional organist and composer, of Belgian origin, who had been living in Paris since 1855.

He stayed in Egypt several times and published his first book, L'Égypte aux temps des pharaons, in 1898.

The cache of Royal Mummies had been placed in KV35 to protect them from looting by tomb robbers by the 21st Dynasty High Priest of Amun, Pinedjem.

He donated some of his archives to the University of Lyons, but a majority to his favorite student, Alexandre Varille.
