Description Crush is Akro's newest indulgence: an Extrait de Parfum developed with guidance from the head chef of Ladurée, the iconic Parisian pâtisserie, as a fragrant homage to the pink macaron. Released globally in August 2025 by perfumer Olivier Cresp, it captures the exact moment a rose macaron gives way beneath your teeth: roasted almond and lychee cracking open, before Bulgarian rose and praline melt into something soft and faintly intoxicating, with vanilla lingering underneath.
Scent Character Crush leans sweet, fruity, and rosy, built around Bulgarian rose, praline, and vanilla with an almond-lychee opening. It reads as a delicate, floral gourmand rather than a heavy dessert scent, closer to the elegance of a pâtisserie counter than a bakery.
Fragrance Pyramid Top: Almond, Litchi
Heart: Bulgarian Rose
Base: Praliné, Vanilla
Performance As an Extrait de Parfum, Akro's most concentrated format, Crush is formulated to wear richer and closer to the skin than the brand's Eau de Parfum releases, with the enhanced tenacity typical of extrait-strength fragrances.
