Akro Haze is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Olivier Cresp. Haze opens with Absinth, Mint, and Eucalyptus, settles into a heart of Clary Sage, and dries down to a base of Leather and Patchouli. Akro's Haze carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

Akro Haze is a polarising green herbal bomb. Some find it a realistic cannabis leaf scent, others a camphoric spa treatment. It's unique, but definitely test before you buy - it's not a crowd-pleaser and its 'weed' factor is a hot topic.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best For:
Casual Sport

Date

Its potent aromatic and camphoric opening, plus the divisive 'weed' element, makes it less suitable for formal or office settings where subtlety is preferred. However, its fresh, green character is well-suited for casual wear, especially in warmer weather, and its invigorating nature could work for sport.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Spearmint Mentha Viridis Leaf Oil from Mint

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Haze plunges you into a vivid aromatic landscape, opening with a sharp, invigorating burst of eucalyptus and cool mint, sharpened by the anise-like bite of absinthe. This herbaceous intensity mellows into a clean, green heart of clary sage. The dry down introduces a subtle leather and an earthy, green patchouli, grounding the initial zing and creating an interesting, almost medicinal freshness.
