Al Abak
Fragrance notes
Louis Cardin presents Al Abak as a floral fruity fragrance for women and men, released in 2024. The opening combines bergamot, rhubarb, and litchi. The citrus from the bergamot meets the tart rhubarb, while the litchi adds a distinct fruitiness. This initial phase feels fresh and bright, moving quickly into the floral heart of the composition.
The heart features peony and rose. The rose note is prominent among the accords and works alongside the peony to build a traditional floral character. This part of the fragrance carries the sweetness forward from the top notes and establishes a soft, powdery texture that defines the middle stage of the wear.
The base consists of cashmeran, cedar, and musk. These elements create the woody and musky foundation that anchors the scent. The cashmeran contributes to the powdery feel, while the cedar provides a dry woodiness. The musk sits underneath, adding a clean finish to the heavier base materials.
Al Abak is a unisex scent that feels appropriate for daily wear during the spring and summer months. The green and aromatic accords keep it from becoming too heavy, making it suitable for daytime occasions. The overall profile is fruity, fresh, and floral with a woody drydown.
