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.

About

Aktis is listed with just three notes. Lavender opens, mint sits in the heart and vetiver forms the base. That gives a herbal, cool and slightly earthy scent without much change as it wears. It is a clean, fresh and masculine fragrance in its simplest form.
