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 a Statement verdict, a sweet-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.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

While some find it strong, many note its comforting and wearable nature, making it suitable for casual and date settings. The prominent sweet and fruity accords, alongside strong projection for some, might be too much for a formal office environment, but its elegance lends itself to more intimate formal events.

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.
