Abel: Reimagined - Perfumes Newly Formulated

• 100% natural: Abel has always been 100% natural and remains true to this promise – it always has and always will.
• Made with master perfumers: We continue to work directly with our master perfumers to ensure that our fragrances use only the highest quality ingredients and the latest technologies.
• Made in the Netherlands: Our new collection continues to be locally produced in the Netherlands.

• We have slightly adjusted the formulations to improve longevity and sillage without deviating from our philosophy of 100% natural ingredients.
• The new formulas feature a 37% higher fragrance concentration.
• Additionally, we have increased the amount of natural, biotechnologically derived Ambroxan and Ambrettolide, these fragrance ingredients help improve longevity and scent diffusion.
• While longevity does not increase exactly in proportion to concentration, the higher concentration means the fragrances last about 15 to 25% longer, some even longer.
• The result is a more intense, longer-lasting Abel fragrance – still pure, still natural, but now with more presence.

• We have preserved the essence of each fragrance, true to its original character and with all the nuances you know and love.
• Improving performance is not a linear process. Increasing the concentration of one ingredient requires careful fine-tuning of the other ingredients to maintain overall balance. You might not smell a difference, but you will notice the performance.
• Nurture is the only fragrance whose formula has remained unchanged. It was developed as a low-allergen, gentle, nurturing scent, and increasing the concentration of certain key ingredients would have altered its soft profile. For this reason, we decided to leave Nurture unchanged.
• All other scents in the collection have been reformulated and now have an average 37% higher concentration to achieve greater intensity and longevity.

• Our previous formulations were in the “Eau de Parfum” range with 15–20%. The new concentrations (except for Nurture) are all in the 20–30% range, which is typically indicated for Parfum Extrait.
• We have decided not to label our EdP as “Parfum Extrait” but to exceed our customers’ expectations. We are not alone in this: while these concentrations are normal for commercial brands, some niche/artisan brands sell Parfum Extrait concentrations as Eau de Parfum.

• Local sourcing: All packaging materials now come from Europe (instead of China) and are sourced within a 400 km radius of the production site – reducing CO2 emissions per carton by about 98%.
• Certified cruelty-free: We are currently in the certification process for COSMOS ecocert and Recycled Claim Standard (RCS) for our cartons and bottles, further strengthening our commitment to sustainability.
• Bottle made from 11.5% recycled glass, produced in France.
• Biodegradable and compostable caps. The perfume caps made from Vivomer (plastic alternative) fully decompose within 20 weeks in compost bins/nature, leaving no traces.
• The perfume packaging is made from 100% recycled paper: 60% from upcycled coffee cups and 40% from post-consumer waste.

This adjustment is a result of g increased producer prices and additional investments in the manufacturing process, which allowed us to improve quality and longevity across the board. Furthermore, these price adjustments are unavoidable in terms of business independence and continuous quality assurance. Our last price adjustment was in 2023, without corrections for rising business costs.

The entire collection is gender-neutral (unisex). If you’re looking for a more traditionally masculine scent, we recommend Coat Check or Green Cedar. If you’re looking for a more traditionally feminine scent, we recommend Pause or Pink Iris.

Our previous formulations were in the “Eau de Parfum” range with 15–20%. The new concentrations (except for Nurture) are all in the  range of 20–30%, which is typically indicated for Parfum Extrait.

Yes, that is possible... All our perfumes have the  same DNA, making them excellent to combine with each other. You really can’t go wrong with that. If you need help getting started, you’ll find tips and advice in our blog post on the topic  Perfume layering.

Yes. We have worked hard on our collection to ensure that our perfumes last a long time on your skin. Especially the addition of long-lasting “natural isolates” (see above)  contributes to the longevity of our perfumes. Due to the higher concentration in the new formulations, the longevity has even improved. They now last about 15 to 25% longer, some even longer.

• There are a few things you can do to extend the longevity of your perfume on your skin.
• We recommend moisturizing your skin with a fragrance-free, hydrating cream or oil before applying perfume, as dry skin absorbs fragrance oils more quickly.
• Perfume applied to your hair and/or clothing lasts longer than perfume applied to your skin.
• Also consider where you apply your perfume – pulse points are good for the scent to develop on your skin, but the inside of your wrists is not suitable if you type on the computer all day – it rubs off there – or if you wash your hands regularly – it washes off there.
• When you apply perfume close to your nose (e.g., on your neck), you quickly get used to the scent, so others can smell your perfume but you no longer do.

Because Abel Parfums simply  smell incredibly good!

Also, if you care about the environment, your fellow humans, and your own health, Abel is a fantastic alternative to synthetic fragrances available on the market. Most synthetic aroma molecules are synthesized from petroleum, a non-renewable resource. Some of these molecules are not biodegradable and accumulate in the food chain, the environment, and our bodies. Learn more about natural perfumes in our blog post.

Yes, they are. Our fragrances contain no ingredients of animal origin and are not tested on animals ... we are also big fans of the little furry creatures.

Plant-based perfume oils, plant waxes, and absolutes. Naturally derived single aroma compounds, e.g., natural musk from hibiscus seeds. And organic certified, non-denatured food-grade alcohol. That’s all.
