I need to factor the polynomial $X^5+6X^3+15X^2+3$ in $\mathbb{Q}\left (\sqrt{-3},\sqrt{-2}\right )\left [X\right ]$, how may I do it?

Mathematica tells us that such a polynomial is irreducible over $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-2},\sqrt{-3})$.
To prove it, we may take a prime $p$ for which both $-2$ and $-3$ are quadratic residues, like $p=43$.
If the original polynomial splits over $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-2},\sqrt{-3})$, it has to split over $\mathbb{F}_p$. However, the original polynomial is irreducible over $\mathbb{F}_{43}$.
