The story of Akro is rooted in a family perfume dynasty stretching from the earliest days of the fragrance industry in Grasse to the cutting-edge art of modern perfumery.

Founded by Anaïs Cresp, Akro was inspired by her time living in London, where the vibrant streets of Ladbroke Grove introduced her to an unforgettable world of scents. From colourful flower stalls and coffee houses to charcoal grills, Irish pubs filled with whiskey and leather, and the unmistakable haze of cannabis in the air, every aroma became part of her inspiration.

After a long summer immersed in everything London had to offer, Anaïs had an idea: what if these distinctive everyday aromas could be captured and transformed into unique fragrances? Akro was born from this vision, creating perfumes inspired not only by traditional fruits and flowers, but by the pleasures, memories and experiences we want to wear on our skin.
