Akro Malt is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Olivier Cresp. Malt opens with Whisky, settles into a heart of Seaweed and Rum, and dries down to a base of Leather and Patchouli. Akro's Malt carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

Akro Malt is a true love-it-or-hate-it scent. Raw, boozy, and challenging, it's either an artistic triumph or a one-way ticket to smelling like a dive bar floor. This isn't a crowd-pleaser; it's a statement.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date

Its strong, boozy, and very unique profile makes it entirely unsuitable for office or sport. The rich, sensual, and unusual character, however, lends itself well to intimate, colder-weather date nights where a bold statement is desired.

About

Imagine a whisky distillery by the sea, filled with wooden barrels. That's Akro Malt. It opens with a potent, almost aggressive hit of whisky and rum, quickly followed by a salty, almost briny seaweed note. Underlying this boozy marine blast, rich leather and earthy patchouli emerge, creating a complex, dark, and decidedly un-fragrance-like aroma that settles into a sweet, fermented warmth.
