THE BODY CONDITIONING BALM

+
-

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

Best Body Wash I’ve Ever Used

Recently bought Sc.04 in the body wash concentrate as I have been using the same scent in the deodorant. I’ve got to say that there seems to be nothing that AKT can’t accomplish, this body wash is a game changer. You only need a tiny amount and you smell fresh all day. It also disperses around the house after my shower!

Love it

I love the scent, and I love that it doesn’t sit on your skin in an overwhelming way all day. It’s a burst in the shower and then subtle throughout the day. I use not much at all and it lathers up so much so I think it will last ages. I also have sensitive skin and so far my skin is totally unbothered. I do use moisturiser afterwards but even before I moisturise it doesn’t make my skin feel tight or dry.

Smells great and applies well

Love this! Leaves my skin looking and smelling fab

Lovely body wash

I love the Akt body wash really moisturising and gentle, a little goes a long way. Can’t wait to try the new scents.

Transformative

LOVE this deodorant and body wash. Difficult to know which one to choose as they are all lovely, subtle and fresh. The sponge that goes with the body wash is well worth buying as it spreads the cream nicely - the texture feels so luxurious. Easy to pop a tube in my bag when I'm on the go and I'm also enjoying the body cream. It lasts amazing well and is actually very good value as you really don't need to use much at a time.
