The present invention is to provide an absorbent article allowing a soft feel to be given to a user even near intersection points intersected by the diagonally extending components. The absorbent article (10) according to the present invention having a liquid-permeable top sheet (14), a liquid-impermeable back sheet (12), and an absorber (13) disposed between the top sheet and the back sheet includes a first recessed portion (20a) configured in a top surface of the absorber facing the top sheet and extending along a first direction and a second recessed portion (20b) configured in the top surface of the absorber facing the top sheet so as to intersect the first recessed portion, the second recessed portion extending along a second direction different from the first direction. The first recessed portion and the second recessed portion each have a first area (201) having a shallow depth from the surface of the top sheet to a bottom surface of the first area and a second area (202) having a deeper depth from the top surface of the absorber to a bottom surface of the second area than the first area. Q1/Q4 is in a range of 0.425 to 0.975, where Q1 is a depth from the surface of the top sheet in an undeformed area to the bottom surface in the second area, and Q4 is the thickness of the top sheet and the absorber in the undeformed area.
