Brand Spotlight: Abel - Elevating Natural Perfumery

Founded by former winemaker Frances Shoemack, Abel was born out of a quest for a modern, elevated fragrance crafted solely from plant-based, renewable ingredients. Shoemack embarked on a journey to redefine perfumery and embrace the natural — without compromising in ingredients, quality, or aesthetic.

It’s been ten years since the creation of Abel and still, Shoemack's commitment remains steadfast. "Experiencing natural fragrance is a genuine luxury: authentic, nourishing, and joyful." 

A Decade of Authenticity: Abel's Commitment to Natural Ingredients

A decade since its inception, Abel stands as a testament to the belief that the finest ingredients can be sourced from nature to celebrate it. Abel’s perfume collection is comprised of 100% natural fragrances for both body and home, offering luxurious scent rituals that heighten every olfactory experience.

Innovating Natural Perfumery: Abel's Boundary-Pushing Approach

Driven by a commitment to setting a new standard in natural perfumery, Abel pushes boundaries by harnessing biotechnology and science. The fragrance house collaborates with top perfumers around the world to bring forth modern, luxurious fragrances that are 100% natural.

“Naturals have an (often misguided) reputation for being simple, subtle and organic smelling,” Master Perfumer Isaac Sinclair, explained. “As in any creative pursuit, there comes a time when you find yourself wanting to push the boundaries, to see if you can play right at the edges and surprise everyone."

Abel’s dedication not only shows the full potential of all-natural perfumes, but also serves as an example for the greater fragrance industry to innovate.
