Marijuana

Marijuana by Byredo

Crafted by Ben Gorham himself, Byredo Marijuana was one of the brand’s most distinctive and culturally provocative compositions. Built around citrus, violet, cannabis accord, vetiver, patchouli, amber, and musk, this composition captured the warm woody-smoky character of the cannabis plant through refined niche perfumery technique. Many reviewers described it as “warm, woody, smoky, and slightly sweet” with a distinctive cannabis note that earned the fragrance both passionate fans and cultural attention.

Byredo Marijuana has been discontinued and is no longer in active production. The fragrance does not appear in Byredo’s current catalog (La Grande Découverte set), and authentic bottles command increasingly premium prices on resale markets. Our interpretation references the original formulation as a long-lasting Eau de Parfum, made in the EU.

How It Smells

The opening is immediately bright and slightly tart with citrus lifted by refined violet, creating an unusual introduction that signals the distinctive cannabis accord ahead. There is no shy citrus burst.

The heart introduces the soul of the fragrance: a refined cannabis accord that captures the warm, slightly resinous character of the plant without literally smelling like recreational use. The dry-down settles on dignified vetiver, smooth patchouli, warm amber, and refined musks. A base that lingers on skin for hours with sophisticated, slightly earthy, deeply atmospheric depth.
