'Drone [Racing League](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/surprise-family-reunion-dinner),' the world's premier drone racing property, has announced the '[NFT](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/web3): 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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drone-themed-bed) 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.
