Dries Van Noten - Voodoo Chile

Voodoo Chile by Dries Van Noten is a woody unisex fragrance launched in 2022 as part of the designer's inaugural haute parfumerie collection. Created by perfumer Nicolas Beaulieu, the scent draws inspiration from Jimi Hendrix’s iconic track, translating the energy of psychedelic rock into a sophisticated olfactory experience. It is a fragrance of contrasts—balancing raw, herbal rebellion with refined elegance.

The scent opens with a bold, aromatic burst of cannabis, sharpened by the camphoraceous coolness of rosemary, creating a green and almost electric atmosphere. The heart introduces a resinous depth with mastic (lentisque) and earthy, dark patchouli, grounding the initial herbal intensity. The dry down is characteristically smooth and sophisticated, featuring a noble woody base of creamy sandalwood and structural cedarwood. Voodoo Chile is a high-performance, avant-garde scent that feels both edgy and impeccably tailored.
