WoodyWhat does Chakai smell like?
Its longevity is good and its sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and the office are the leading occasions. Most see it as masculine.
Cardamom, hinoki wood and bamboo make up the notes. Fresh and aquatic tones dominate, while the green and floral sides stay in the background. A light sweetness and spice soften the woody base. Adolfo Dominguez Bambú Hombre and Eight & Bob Cap d'Antibes have a close profile.
