Late evening. A well-appointed space, low light, the remnants of something indulgent. The Apartment is a dark floral gourmand that unfolds like a very good night - a tart cherry opening with rum and cacao, blooming into jasmin sambac and tuberose before settling into a deep, resinous base of myrrh, tolu balsam, and vanilla. Rich, sophisticated, and unapologetically complex.
What makes it remarkable is what it's made from: 100% natural ingredients, including biotech cherry and vanilla notes, upcycled cacao from Madagascar, and jasmin sambac absolute from India. Abel calls their approach Radical Fragrance - the refusal to compromise on ingredients or transparency. The Apartment is that philosophy at its most opulent.
Available in 6ml (travel) and 50ml.
The Apartment is for those who love rich, evening-appropriate fragrances without the synthetic heaviness that usually comes with them. If you're drawn to dark florals, warm gourmands, or anything that feels a little luxurious - this is the natural fragrance answer to that.

Opens with a striking combination of tart cherry (a biotech note), rum extract, and upcycled cacao. The heart softens into lush white florals - jasmin sambac from India, tuberose absolute, and the resinous warmth of gurjun balsam. The base is deep and lasting: myrrh, tolu balsam from El Salvador, and biotech vanilla round out a fragrance that lingers beautifully.

Apply to pulse points - wrists, neck, behind the ears. The Apartment is best suited to evenings - it's a layered, evolving fragrance that rewards time and skin warmth. Apply before heading out and let it develop throughout the night. The 6ml size is ideal for trying the scent on your own skin chemistry before committing to the 50ml.
Dark florals and gourmands rarely translate well to natural fragrance - the synthetic shortcuts are usually what give them their depth. Abel proves that wrong. The biotech cherry and vanilla notes here achieve the kind of richness you'd expect from conventional perfumery, while the upcycled cacao and balsam resin sourcing adds a layer of provenance that makes the fragrance feel genuinely considered.
