Akro Ink (Olivier Cresp, 2022) is the 'tattoo' entry in Akro's addictions-themed niche line — a cold, metallic, smoky rendering of a tattoo parlor built on black ink, tar, birch, vetiver and a thin white-floral jasmine edge. It is a divisive, distinctly avant-garde scent, and the community clone/dupe landscape for it is essentially bare: searches of r/fragrance, r/fragranceclones, YouTube and the usual retailer pages surface no repeated, independently-vetted clone consensus. The only purpose-built dupe that verifiably exists is Dua Fragrances' 'First Tattoo,' which Dua's own product page explicitly markets as inspired by Ink by Akro and prices at $33 against Akro's ~$186 retail. That pairing is real and correctly attributed (it is the house's own interpretation, not an aggregator mispairing), but there is no third-party skin-comparison consensus validating how close it actually smells — treat it as a plausible starting point rather than a proven 1:1, and expect the usual Dua maceration wait. Confidence is low given the niche subject and thin, single-source evidence.
