L'Artisan Parfumeur Venenum 32 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Daphné Bugey. Venenum 32 opens with Rice, settles into a heart of Milk, Spicy Notes, Tea, and Bread, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood. L'Artisan Parfumeur's Venenum 32 carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

Venenum 32 is a divisive, love-it-or-hate-it scent. For those who get it, it's a wonderfully creamy, spiced chai experience. For others, it’s a baffling, off-putting mess of cumin and bug spray. Definitely one to try before you buy.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its warm, subtle sillage makes it ideal for casual wear and intimate dates, fostering a cosy atmosphere. However, the gourmand and spicy profile, coupled with reports of mild strength, make it less suited for formal events or the office, where something more conventional might be preferred. It's definitely not a gym scent.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Imagine a rich, warm masala chai, brewed in a wooden kitchen. Venenum 32 opens with an aromatic blast of warm spices, reminiscent of cardamom and cinnamon, softened by creamy milk notes. As it settles, the comforting scent of freshly baked bread emerges, mingling with a smooth, almost powdery sandalwood. The tea accord weaves throughout, creating a deeply cosy and inviting aroma that's both gourmand and subtly woody.
