Master Perfumery
New Zealand's only Master Perfumer, Isaac Sinclair became Abel Founder Frances' first ally in the quest to disrupt an industry that didn't believe natural perfume could be chic, modern, or stand up alongside the world's best.
"Naturals have an (often misguided) reputation for being simple, subtle and organic smelling. 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." - Isaac

Biotechnology
Our approach to perfumery combines the innovation of biotechnology with the artistry of master perfumers. Biotechnology uses living organisms to grow, enhance and elevate our ingredient palette, eliminating the need for petrochemical-derived synthetics. It allows us to craft sustainable, long-lasting scents that work with — not against — the rhythms of nature.

“Black Anise is a memorable scent that hits you first with the sweetness of star anise, blackcurrant and cacao, before mellowing to linger with a spicy, smoky amber and tobacco – an ideal combination for sultry winter nights.”
“Darker, moodier and smokier than what many would typically associate with the botanical reputation of natural perfumery Abel’s newest eau de parfum, Black Anise, has been created to challenge expectations.”
“Black Anise challenges the notion that plant-based fragrances must be light and airy. Instead, it offers a rich, complex, and daring alternative that will appeal to conscious consumers looking for a scent that is both non-toxic and sexy.Sultry, sexy and non-toxic. This is a chic and nuanced option for the conscious consumer.”
