Which Should You Buy?
Akro Bake is a truly divisive one, this. Half the population reckons it's the ultimate lemon gourmand: fluffy, delicious, full of zing. The other half can only smell lemon cleaner. If you can get past the first blast, it mellows into a genuinely comforting, edible scent. Otherwise, it's a hard pass.
This is a divisive but much-loved chocolate gourmand from a brand that sadly seems to have fallen into the reformulation trap. Performance complaints are rife, but for many, it's still a nostalgic, comforting, and utterly delicious scent.
