Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its moderate longevity and sillage make it suitable for casual wear and even the office, as it's not overpowering. The fresh and clean apple profile lends itself well to daytime and sport activities, though it might be too informal for truly formal events.

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

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

Imagine biting into a crisp, tart green apple, fresh from the tree, with a subtle woody earthiness underneath. Akero opens with that vibrant, juicy apple, quickly joined by a soft, creamy sandalwood that rounds off any sharpness. As it dries, a touch of patchouli adds depth and a hint of a natural, slightly sweet, resinous warmth from benzoin, grounding the fruit without losing its freshness.
