SCENT
Step 1. Choose your scene

Midday sun beats heavily on the grove. Sweet aromas burst from the freshly peeled orange. Neroli blossom dances, alive on the breeze. Another negroni over ice – it's summer after all.

AT FIRST
SLICED ORANGE, SWEET MANDARIN, TUSCAN SUN

AND THEN
BITTER NEGRONI, NEROLI BLOSSOM, AFTERNOON SIESTA

FINALLY
ITALIAN CYPRESS, PETITGRAIN, LA DOLCE VITA

A walk through the woods after a thunderstorm. Damp cedar. Fresh leaves. Citrus rays of morning light slice through the canopy. Take a deep breath. Day begins again. 

AT FIRST
EUCALYPTUS, CALEDONIAN PINE, ORANGE SUNBEAMS

AND THEN
ROSEMARY, MORNING DEW, A SENSE OF WONDER

FINALLY
WET EARTH, LINGERING CEDAR

Steam dances over the hot spring, steeped in soft Japanese citrus. Cold, earthy air rushes into the lungs. Morning sun bathes the cedar mountains in a lavender light. Mind clear and calm. Breathe.

AT FIRST
STEEPED YUZU, LAVENDER, HUSHED MINT

AND THEN
MOUNTAIN PEPPER, CLOVE

FINALLY
JAPANESE CEDARWOOD, VETIVER, CALM

A lazy walk back to the villa, along cobbled streets, past tomato vines and proud citrus trees. Under the dusk sky, locals smoke cigars and drink mint tea. The sea air greets your sun-kissed skin like an old friend. Here’s to endless summers.

AT FIRST
FRESH MINT, POMELO, COASTAL WIND

AND THEN
CASCADING GERANIUMS, TOMATO VINES, SUN-WARMED SKIN

FINALLY
VETIVER, GIN AND TONIC... AND NO PLANS

Early Sunday morning. Lemon sunlight peeks sleepily over the terraces of the bustling flower market. Street sellers call; their stalls a riot of violet and amber blooms. The scent of freshly cut stems and good coffee. With a smile you melt into the crowd.

AT FIRST
ZESTY LEMON, CUT STEMS, COLD SKIES

AND THEN
IRIS, VIOLET LEAF, WARM HANDS ON A COFFEE CUP

FINALLY
AMBER, TONKA BEAN. A PERFECT SUNDAY

A blank page. An empty stage. The pre before the masterpiece, the accolades, and the ovations. Just you and the anticipation of what's to come. No distractions. No notes. Just boundless creativity. Take in this moment and all its possibilities — and create. 

AT FIRST 
Zip. Zilch. Nada. Nothing at all 

AND THEN 
A sense of possibility, an inkling, an idea 

FINALLY 
Restless imagination, untapped genius, joie de vivre

A Little Life-Changer

I was very lucky to receive a complimentary tube of AKT Deodorant Balm while performing in ‘A Little Life’ at The Savoy Theatre last year. Having been a lifelong ‘areosoler’ I have subsequently become a total devotee of this product. Not only is it better for the planet it is also better for me, because it totally works, I love the different scents and it’s so much more convenient to use, especially when travelling. I cannot recommend AKT enough, and will go on doing so. Thanks guys! Emilio

So far so good

Really good product. I thought it would be annoying to use a cream but it has been easy, mess free. Product is really good and scent is lovely

My pits are reborn!

4 years ago I weaned myself off a decades addiction to Lady Speed Stick, tried all the natural alternatives (Fussy, Wild, Malin + Goetz etc.) but nothing could effectively eradicate a hard day's sweat (and whiff)....until AKT!
Purchased a trial set to match to the right scent and instantly fell in love with SC.05 Ext. Columbia Road. It smells divine, keeps me smelling divine, and it really is so unbelievably good. Thank you AKT, you are a magic elixir in a tube, and my pits are reborn!

It works!

I had tried a number of different deodorants to reduce sweating along with smell and staining on my shirts for work. I’ve used Akt for just over a year now and it really works for me. I’ve tried a couple of different varieties, but have come back to sc.02 and think this is where I’ll settle.

Grateful.

Every deodorant I've ever used in the past made me itchy. The tang of chemicals and discomfort was awful but this deodorant is super. Found it first on Amazon so this is my 3rd purchase. Really happy and grateful don't know how you did it but thank you.
