Launched in 2024 by Nina Ricci, Vénus is a Chypre Floral fragrance created by the esteemed perfumers Alexandra Monet, Nathalie Lorson, and Olivier Cresp. The composition opens with the brightness of mandarin and magnolia leaf, creating an invigorating green freshness that transitions into the heart notes of jasmine and magnolia. This floral bouquet is enveloped in a warm vanilla accord, which brings a sweet, powdery depth to the scent. The base note of patchouli adds an earthy complexity, grounding the composition with its rich, woody aroma.

Application Tips
Apply Vénus to pulse points for a subtle warmth that builds over time. The mandarin and magnolia leaf top notes will last about an hour before giving way to the heart and base notes. This fragrance is best worn in moderate temperatures, as its floral sweetness can become overwhelming on hot days.
