Kenzo Kashaya is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1993, created by Sophia Grojsman. Kashaya opens with Hyacinth, Anise, Bergamot, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Rose, Jasmine, and Tuberose, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Cedar, and Sandalwood. Kenzo's Kashaya carries an Acquired verdict, a fruity-led wear.

Kashaya is the 90s fruity-floral you never knew you needed. It's a divisive one, some find it too sweet or dated, yet a passionate bunch call it a comforting, unique masterpiece. A true Sophia Grojsman creation, not for the faint of heart.

About

Opens with a juicy explosion of peach, pineapple, and apricot, sweetened by mandarin and a hint of anise. The heart blooms into a rich, powdery bouquet of exotic florals-rose, lily, and ylang-ylang leading the charge. The drydown is a warm, enveloping embrace of sandalwood, amber, and vanilla, leaving a lasting, sensual trail that's both creamy and slightly woody.
