Voodoo Chile by Dries Van Noten is a Woody fragrance for women and men that launched in 2022. Created by perfumer Nicolas Beaulieu, the composition centers on an unexpected yet captivating cannabis note, which adds a distinctive edge to the traditional woody-aromatic base of rosemary, mastic, patchouli, sandalwood, and cedar. The result is a scent that feels both grounded and enigmatic, with a fresh spicy opening that transitions into warm, balsamic depths.

Application Tips
This fragrance has a strong presence due to its cannabis note, so one or two sprays are sufficient. Allow it time to settle on your skin before stepping out; the cannabis and patchouli notes bloom best close to the body rather than across a room.

The story behind the bottle.
The hush of a city street late at night, where the air is thick with the mingled scents of earth and urban decay, softened by the glow of distant lights.
