Pause Eau de Parfum is a confident, textured floral designed to calm the body and mind during hormonal change. With a verdant opening of violet leaf, Pause unfolds into a floral heart of mimosa and narcissus. Warm, sweet hay absolute gives an earthy dryness to the base. Envisaged for its feel-good properties but loved by many for its balanced floral profile.

100% natural fragrance
We believe nothing is more important than what’s inside the bottle. We subvert the misconception that natural ingredients aren’t enough. The very original perfumery palette, nature provides everything our Master Perfumers and innovative scientists need to create distinct, sophisticated modern perfume, surpassing petrochemical-derived synthetics.
Our fragrances are made from natural, plant-derived ingredients that are readily biodegradable in our ecosystem. All of our products are vegan and cruelty free with all ingredients ethically sourced. We believe in complete ingredient transparency and provide a full list of ingredients in all our fragrances.

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.

“Believe it or not, this fragrance wasforulated specifically for those experincing perimenopause. Featuring notes like mimosa and violet leaf, it's designed to help with unpredictable factors like mood, stress, anxiety and sleep”
“It smells like sunlight on hay. A late spring morning when there is morning dew and you can smell the dewiness on the grass and sunlight on hay and the warmth of the air when it starts to warm up from the night. It is very calm. there's such a softness to it, soft, inviting calmness. It smells like golden.”
“"Evidently this fragrance was created for women going through menopause, but even if (like me) you haven't yet reached that stage, it's a light, beautiful, calming scent made from natural ingredients. For me, it's also one of the few that don't trigger a headache." —Dhani Mau, Editor in Chief”
