The story of Akro is the story of a family—of a French dynasty that spans from the earliest days of the perfume industry in Grasse to the cutting-edge art form of today.
It all started a few years ago, when Paris-born Anaïs Cresp was living in London and navigating her place in the world. Immersed in city life, she came to realise that everyone has their own everyday addiction, the habit they can’t give up, and that these little temptations made life worth living.
As someone raised in the ancient culture of perfumery, Anaïs understood that the scents of these addictions were as important as their effect; that the aromas of coffee houses, bars, bakeries, holidays and tattoo parlours are part of the reason we keep coming back to them.
Soon, Anaïs hit on an idea: that these distinctive scents could be bottled and turned into fragrances. That perhaps, instead of the standard perfume notes, you could wear your favourite addiction on your skin.

Olfactory Notes
Ingredients
Tobacco is an ancient crop, which for centuries, has lured people in with its enticing aroma and powerful rituals. It’s the shared, flirtatious exchange of preparing a roll-up for someone, it’s the way the tobacco leaf crumbles between your fingers, the smell of flame hitting paper.
SMOKE is the scent you’re not supposed to enjoy, but the one you can’t live without.

Top Notes: The initial impression of SMOKE is dominated by the aromatic scent of Tobacco Leaves, offering a rich, earthy, and slightly sweet aroma. This accord evokes the natural fragrance of freshly picked tobacco leaves, capturing their inherent complexity and setting the stage for the deeper notes to follow.
Heart Notes: As the initial burst of tobacco fades, the heart of the fragrance reveals a smoky, woody character provided by Birch. This note adds a subtle dryness and a touch of leathery nuance, creating a captivating contrast with the sweetness of the tobacco.
Base Notes: The lingering essence of SMOKE is a warm and comforting blend of Benzoin and Tonka Bean. Benzoin contributes a balsamic sweetness with hints of vanilla and spice, while Tonka Bean enhances the overall richness with its gourmand facets of almond, caramel, and hay. This combination creates a smooth, addictive dry down that persists for hours, leaving a sensual and memorable trail.
