Santalum has a long, rich history that spans continents and centuries, lauded by many as the most noble perfume ingredient. In order to truly pay homage but in the most modern of ways, Red Santal is built on a trio of Sandalwood. The soft and warm noble East Indian Sandalwood used for centuries in Ayurvedic medicine and meditation. Australian Sandalwood, known as “uilarac” by the indigenous people, distinctive for its sharper, cooler woody aspect. And finally amyris, or West Indies Sandalwood as it’s commonly known, which is actually a different specie altogether, recognised for its Sandalwood-like qualities.
Note: There have been extensive problems in the sustainable cultivation and distribution of East Indian sandalwood for many years. By sourcing East Indian sandalwood from sustainable plantations we are assisting in the re-establishment of a sustainable eco-system in sandalwood’s native home.

ABOUT THE BRAND+
Founder Frances Shoemack, an Amsterdam based former winemaker created Abel Odor with a mission to blend the pleasurable world of perfumery with the conscious simplicity of nature. Joining forces with Sao Paolo based master perfumer Isaac Sinclair they have brought together a selection of natural unisex perfumes that are modern, chic and long lasting.
How Abel is different to most other natural perfumes?
Synthetic musk is used in 99% of perfume for its role as a fixative and ability to enhance the overall fragrance. Abel Odor has been able to source a 'natural' Musk alternative (isolated from the Ambrette Seed) and the addition of natural isolates to their formulas means access to ingredients previously unavailable in a natural perfumers’ palette. Their brand has thus become a game-changer in the world of fragrance.
