Navitus Parfums Venom of Love is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Sidonie Lancesseur. Venom of Love opens with Sour Cherry, Liquor, and Almond, settles into a heart of Dark Chocolate, Rose, Jasmine, and Cherry, and dries down to a base of Cream, Vanilla, and Amberwood. Navitus Parfums's Venom of Love carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This boozy, cherry-chocolate gourmand hits hard at first sniff, but its performance is divisive. While some find it deeply seductive and long-lasting, others are let down by its fleeting glory. A luxurious scent, if it works for your skin.

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.

Also Works:
Casual

Its strong gourmand and warm spicy accords make it ideal for date nights and formal evening events, though it's too intense for office wear. While some wear it casually, the rich nature makes it less suitable for everyday errands.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Bitter almond Benzaldehyde from Almond
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Venom of Love opens with a rich, syrupy blast of sour cherry and almond liqueur, immediately intoxicating the senses. As it settles, a smooth, dark chocolate emerges, seamlessly blending with a subtle rose and an underlying creaminess. The dry down is a warm, enveloping hug of amberwood, vanilla, and lingering almond, creating a decadent, gourmand experience that's both comforting and alluring. It feels like a spiked cherry cordial.
