Nina Ricci Vénus is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Nathalie Lorson, Olivier Cresp, and Alexandra Monet. Vénus opens with Mandarin and Magnolia Leaf, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Magnolia, and dries down to a base of Patchouli and Vanilla. Nina Ricci's Vénus carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

Divisive yet delightful, Vénus is a modern floral-vanilla that's either a forgettable 'body splash' or a beautiful, creamy embrace. It's a crowd-pleaser for many, but some find it lacking originality and depth.

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.

Its moderate longevity and sillage make it versatile for most settings, though it might be a bit much for a formal event. Many reviews mention it as an 'office-safe' vanilla, while its warm, sensual character makes it ideal for dates and casual wear.

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

Vénus opens with a bright, zesty mandarin and the fresh greenness of magnolia leaf, quickly softening into a heart of creamy magnolia and sweet jasmine. As it settles, a warm, soft vanilla emerges, grounded by a clean, almost 'white' patchouli that adds an intriguing depth without being earthy. It's a smooth, well-blended scent that feels both classic and contemporary.
