SMILE by Akro is a vibrant, uplifting fragrance inspired by happiness and the special bond between a father and daughter. Created by master perfumer Olivier Cresp for his daughter Anaïs when she was young, this personal fragrance remained exclusively hers for years before she decided to share it with the world. Fresh sage introduces an aromatic, herbal character, while sparkling bergamot brings a lively citrus brightness. Natural raspberry adds a juicy, fruity sweetness that gives the composition its cheerful, inviting personality.
Soft musk creates a smooth, comforting foundation, balancing the freshness of sage and bergamot with the vibrant sweetness of raspberry. The combination feels playful yet refined, offering a versatile fruity fragrance that is both refreshing and effortlessly wearable. SMILE captures the simple pleasure of a joyful moment, transforming a meaningful family creation into a fragrance designed to brighten everyday life.
All Notes: Sage, Bergamot, Natural Raspberry, Musk.
The story of Akro is the story of a family; of a dynasty that spans from the earliest days of the perfume industry in Grasse to the cutting edge artform of today.
It all started a few years back, when founder Anaïs Cresp was living in London and learning about the world. Working in the pubs and bars of the vibrant and diverse area of Ladbroke Grove, she became enraptured by the scents around her; by the flower stalls, coffee houses, charcoal grills, by the whiskey and leather of the grand old Irish pubs and the inescapable haze of weed in the air.
After a long, lost summer of indulging in everything the city had to offer, Anaïs hit on an idea; that these distinctive aromas could be bottled and turned into fragrances. Perhaps, instead of just fruits and flowers, you could wear your favourite vice on your skin.
Gourmand fragrances are inspired by delicious, dessert-like notes and the comforting warmth of familiar indulgences. They often blend vanilla, fruit, spice, caramel, chocolate, nuts, or creamy accords into scents that feel cozy, playful, decadent, or elegant. Sweet without always being simple, the best gourmands feel memorable, refined, and hard to resist.
