Monotheme Venezia Cocoa Beans is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024. Cocoa Beans opens with Pink Pepper and Pear, settles into a heart of Cacao Pod, Jasmine, and Tuberose, and dries down to a base of Amber, Patchouli, and Benzoin. Monotheme Venezia's Cocoa Beans carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This one's a divisive sniff, a real love-it-or-hate-it kind of a scent. Expect a creamy, powdery cocoa pod, not your rich chocolate bar, but be warned: performance is a roll of the dice; for some it's there then gone, for others, it's surprisingly tenacious depending on skin chemistry. Definitely one to try before you buy.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

Given its creamy, soft spicy, and powdery nature, Cocoa Beans is best suited for casual settings where its limited sillage won't offend. The inconsistent longevity means it's less reliable for formal events or dates, though its comforting quality makes it decent for a relaxed evening out.

About

Imagine the green, almost fruity pulp of a fresh cocoa pod, sparked with a hint of piquant pink pepper and juicy pear. This transitions quickly into a creamy heart of jasmine and tuberose, carrying that unique raw cacao essence. The dry down settles into a soft, warm amber with hints of patchouli and the balsamic sweetness of benzoin.
