"Afrodisiac" is a song by American recording artist Brandy Norwood. It was written by Isaac Phillips, Kenisha Pratt, Kenneth Pratt and Timbaland for her same-titled fourth studio album (2004), with production was handled by the latter. One of the first songs Norwood and Timbaland collaborated on, the record is an uptempo–offbeat contemporary R&B song with pop and dance-pop elements, built along on a flute, Afro-Caribbean music influences and 1980s electro sounds. Considered by Norwood as one of her favorites on the album, the track expresses a female's addictive passion for a special person, whom she declares her very own aphrodisiac.

The song was met with the acclaim of contemporary critics. Many praised Norwood's versatility and considered it as one of the stand-out tracks on Afrodisiac for having an innovative and different production when compared to the others. Released as the album's second international single in Europe and Oceania during the third and fourth quarter of 2004, "Afrodisiac" reached number eleven on the UK Singles Chart, its highest peak, as well as the top thirty in France and Ireland, and the top forty in Australia and Switzerland, where it surpassed the success of its predecessor.

The single's music video was directed by Matthew Rolston and marked his second collaboration with Norwood following their 1995 video for "Best Friend". Choreographed by Laurieann Gibson, it was filmed in Los Angeles, California and features Norwood dancing in a water-flooded outtrack world, influenced by white, gold and black color. "Afrodisiac" was performed on a few television shows, such as CD:UK, Top of the Pops, and Billboard Live, but has since been performed frequently on Norwood's concerts and tours, including the 2009 Human World Tour and the 2016 Slayana World Tour.
