Comedic Cologne Campaigns

Drone Racing League Unveiled its 'NFT: New Fragrance Tech' Campaign

— April 1, 2022 — Marketing
'Drone Racing League,' the world's premier drone racing property, has announced the 'NFT: New Fragrance Tech' cologne as part of a comedic campaign. Slated for a release on April 1st, also known as April Fool's Day, this cologne has a pungent, strong scent powered by the Blockchain. DRL stated that the cologne "Stings the nostrils in a disruptive way" as part of its humor-driven marketing.

DRL also announced that the NFT: New Fragrance Tech cologne is illegal in nine countries due to the tiny pieces of real racing drones that it contains. This limited-edition cologne will only be available online in the Web3 space, and will only be purchasable with cryptocurrency. However, it is important to note that the NFT: New Fragrance Tech is non-existent, meaning it will never actually come out.

This comedy-fueled April Fool's Day campaign spins on the popularity of NFTs and cryptocurrency while also generating attention for Drone Racing League's drone-racing arcade game, 'Play DRL,' which is available on most gaming platforms.
