Al Absar Red Sugar is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2026. Red Sugar opens with Marshmallow, Vanilla, Pear, and Rum, settles into a heart of Sandalwood, Jasmine, Violet Leaf, and Labdanum, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Patchouli, Tonka Bean, and Cashmeran. Al Absar's Red Sugar carries a Favourite verdict, an amber-led wear.

This gourmand is a sweet treat that requires patience, literally. If you can wait for the alcohol note to dissipate, you'll be rewarded with a sugary, fruity experience that's both comforting and undeniably charming, often compared to popular sweet scents.

About

Red Sugar opens with a boozy splash of rum and juicy pear, quickly melting into a marshmallow-vanilla cloud that's almost edible. A creamy sandalwood and delicate violet leaf emerge in the heart, preventing it from tipping into pure confectionery. The base rounds out with a warm, slightly earthy blend of tonka, patchouli, and cashmeran, giving it an elevated depth that keeps it from feeling juvenile.
