Dries Van Noten Cannabis Patchouli is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Nicolas Bonneville. Cannabis Patchouli opens with Bergamot and Cedar Needle, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Incense, and Sage, and dries down to a base of Musk and Vetiver. Dries Van Noten's Cannabis Patchouli carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

Divisive and bold, this one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Don't let the name fool you, it's more sophisticated patchouli than smoky skunk, though a hint of controversy lingers.

Baseas listed

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 sillage and longevity make it versatile, though the initial intensity might be too much for some offices. The sensual, earthy dry down is perfect for dates, while its unique character suits casual and slightly formal settings better than intense activity.

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.

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

Opening with a sharp, almost medicinal greenness from cedar needle and bergamot, Cannabis Patchouli demands attention. This initial intensity mellows into an earthy heart, where patchouli and sage meld with a subtle incense smokiness. The dry down is a warm, musky embrace, softened by vetiver, leaving an elegant and refined woody trail that feels both wild and comforting.
