Cyan Nori Eau de Parfum is a sweet and salty musk inspired by the vast expanse of the ocean.

Briny nori opens for a raw and powerful ode to the ocean. Tangerine and white peach add sweetness to the heart, evoking an orange sunset over the horizon. Plant-derived musk provides a long and effervescent dry-down on the base for a scent that's as intoxicating as the sea breeze.

This unique and genderless scent is our global best-seller.

Gold Winner of Clean + Conscious Awards for Natural Perfume.

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.

From our bottles and packaging to our ingredients and creative process, we’ll always be upfront about the way we do things.

The fragrance world has always been shrouded in secrecy. At Abel, we’re passionate about changing that. From our bottles and packaging to our ingredients and creative process, we’ll always be upfront about the way we do things.

Always conscious of our environmental footprint, we never introduce a new fragrance to our core collection without removing one first. Defying industry trends of excess, our ‘one in, one out’ policy embodies the mindful approach underscoring everything we do.
“Cyan Nori, a sweet, salty musk is inspired by the country’s ocean backyard”
“For anyone who cannot get enough of the smell of the ocean, Cyan Nori by natural perfume company Abel evokes all things sand and sea. Mixing together scents of tangerine, musk, and nori (aka seaweed) a few spritzes of this will instantly transport you to a sunny afternoon on a sun-soaked beach.”
“There are plenty of perfumes that promise to invoke the scent of the beach, but Abel Cyan Nori is brave enough to go big on briny seaweed, an element most other marine fragrances leave out altogether. Mixed with white peach and warm musk, this 100% natural perfume is electric, salty, and captures the essence of New Zealand's rocky coastline.”

When we moved from Central Amsterdam to the South Coast of Wellington, I found myself utterly infatuated with my new ocean backyard. It was on a phone call with Isaac not long after moving, that I said “I know there’s no ‘ocean’ ingredient, but gosh I wish we could capture this incredible life force in a scent.” Isaac’s response was the trigger for the birth of Cyan Nori. “That’s such a coincidence, I literally smelt this incredible new Algae absolute today, maybe we can do something with it!’. As we were talking, the sun started to set and my ocean view lit up fluro pink and orange and our conversation turned to notes of vibrant white peach and tangerine. By the time we hang up, we were both buzzing with excitement and had a creative direction. This was just days before the world shut down early in 2020. Cyan Nori became our covid baby, and the need to bring some joy through scent, a personal mission.

She is as much an ode to the ocean as she is a powerful emotional trigger of the very best days - where salty oceanic vibes meet warm sun-drenched skin. Not long after we launched Cyan Nori a (housebound) friend messaged from London saying a spray of Cyan Nori transported her home to New Zealand’s precious rugged coastline. All the affirmation I needed.
