Lorenzo Pazzaglia Van Py Rhum is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Lorenzo Pazzaglia. Van Py Rhum opens with Tonka Bean and Rum, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Caramel, and dries down to a base of Patchouli and Vanilla. Lorenzo Pazzaglia's Van Py Rhum carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This is a bold, divisive, love-it-or-hate-it vanilla bomb that swings between boozy delight and cloying overdose. If you're after a dark, sweet, and unique statement scent, this might just be your intoxicating potion, provided you can handle the intensity.

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.

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.

About

Van Py Rhum opens with a rich, almost edible blast of dark rum and multiple vanillas, quickly sweetened by caramel. As it develops, an earthy patchouli emerges, lending a dusty, almost chocolatey depth that keeps the sweetness from becoming sickly. The dry-down settles into a smooth, boozy vanilla with a comforting, warm, and slightly mysterious character, perfect for colder climes.
