Hi Aneta, I didn't try on the command line. But I've tried with QGIS (QGIS uses GDAl to generate PDFs).
I was able to create a PDF with accent characters everywhere. Check the attached PDF. I've used a layer name with accents; I've used a label with accents. I've also used as attribute field name with accents and the value with accents. The label is displayed properly on the feature. I'm using GDAL 3.3.0dev, compiled with --with-poppler. I would recommend a more recent version of GDAL (ver. >= 3.1.0).
