Nice raspberry-led freshie, fairly light and easygoing
Sampling the most recent release from Akro Fragrances, Smile, from earlier this year, another follow-up freshie to Rise, and a bright fruity floral mix, primarily involving raspberry, bergamot, sage, and musk, though it comes off a little rosy, too. I think it’s perfectly pleasant but does not make quite as much of an impression as Rise, but it does add some diversity to the catalogue as there’s not quite a light fruity fresh option like this in it, otherwise. Certainly worth checking out, quite enjoyable, but not quite as outstanding as a handful of the house’s other fragrances, especially Awake and Bake, my two favorites of the house.
As with the rest of the catalogue, Smile is priced at $180 for 100ml, under the $2/ml mark and therefore very reasonable in the current market, I generally say, and it’s sold on the house site as well as via US retailers like Perfumology.
