Breathe in, breathe out… and AKT. 

Today, we’re taking you through the different ways in which AKT can be a part of your aromatherapy rituals.

Our natural deodorants are not only made to be efficient and environmentally friendly — but we also offer a range of premium fragrances. With each scent, a different scene. 

These scenes can be part of your aromatherapy rituals, and this is how.

What is aromatherapy? 

Aromatherapy refers to a holistic healing treatment using essential oils and/or aromatic plants for mood enhancement. This could be by helping you boost relaxation, uplift, or revive you. This type of complementary therapy has been used for thousands of years, with plants, balms, and oils. Although there is a certain limitation to its efficiency, it has proven to help with symptoms of stress, anxiety, headaches…

Set your aromatherapy scene with AKT

Incorporating aromatherapy into a busy lifestyle can be hard, but once you decide to give it a try, we recommend using AKT deodorant to elevate your rituals. 

Our long-lasting and easy to apply deodorant balms are made up of natural ingredients and essential oils commonly used in aromatherapy. But can the fragrances in natural deodorants have aromatherapeutic benefits? Absolutely!

SC.01 Orange Grove

Sweet aromas burst from the freshly peeled orange. Neroli blossom dances, alive on the breeze.

Our first scene is not only refreshingly sweet and mysterious, but it also contains Neroli essential oil. This essential oil is extracted from the flowers of bitter orange trees and it’s commonly used in aromatherapy for its ability to reduce stress. 

SC.02 After Thunder

A walk through the woods after a thunderstorm. Damp cedar. Fresh leaves.

After Thunder is an ode to nature’s renewal — an aid to grounding your thoughts. SC.02 contains eucalyptus essential oil. Eucalyptus is used in aromatherapy to help support and clear the respiratory system as well as alleviate physical discomforts. Looking for essential oils for relaxation? Eucalyptus is a great choice.

SC.03 The Onsen

Morning sun bathes the cedar mountains in a lavender light. Mind clear and calm.

Our third scene feels like a serene getaway. This balm uses Lavandin oil, a very popular ingredient in aromatherapy. This essential oil is used to help with sleeping, promote relaxation, and relieve symptoms of anxiety and stress. 

Essential oils for sleep? Lavandin is your answer.

SC.04 Halcyon Summers

The sea air greets your sun-kissed skin like an old friend. Here’s to endless summers. 

Halcyon Summers conjures up the magic of walks along the Mediterranean coast. Our fourth scene has notes of pomelo. Commonly used in aromatherapy, pomelo essential oil is uplifting and refreshing. So if you’re looking for some energising scents that help with focus and alertness? Pomelo in SC.04 is the one.

SC.05 Columbia Road

Early Sunday morning. Lemon sunlight peeks sleepily over the terraces of the bustling flower market.

Feeling at ease in the crowd is possible. This scent contains cedarwood oil, an essential oil that’s used in aromatherapy to improve cerebral activity, relax the body, and enhance concentration. For those looking for aromatherapy benefits that improve concentration, Cedarwood is the ideal essential oil.
