What does Kaya smell like?
It opens with apple, raspberry and strawberry alongside Calabrian bergamot, a bright and slightly tart fruit mix. White blossoms and jasmine sambac soften it in the heart, and the base of amber, vanilla, tonka bean and rum turns it warm, creamy and gourmand, with Indonesian patchouli and woody notes adding a touch of dryness.
Longevity and sillage are rated good, and most voters pick fall and spring, then winter, with summer further behind. It reads somewhat more feminine and modern, though a fair share of voters call it masculine. Anfas Ishq and Emil Élise Melting Lust have a close profile.
