Kai

Billie Holiday wore only a cluster of gardenias in her hair as trademark fragrance and ornament, and this certainly evokes that image. Lady Day by the sea?

Oh yes Kai has gardenia, very very powerful gardenia, but not a singleflora. Kai has noticeable jasmine, very present aquatic bits in the finish, and I'd swear that's late march privet blossom in there as well.

Quite lovely, tho very out of character for me as I'm not usually a floral fan. I'd still rate it second behind MPG's Jardin Blanc, but pretty much on par with Alfred Sung's original hit. All nice white flower scents, each with a different basenote. That aquatic note is the one thing keeping Kai from getting my highest possible raves and rating.

Great gardenia reproduction, and certainly the silage is monumental. A strong one, no doubt.

I first tried the Kai EdP and while I admired it and its sillage, it was a bit "death by gardenia" for me. While I love the white flower notes it contains (gardenia, jasmine, tuberose, and lily), it came across as a bit too cloying on me-YMMD. I prefer the oil. While it doesn't have the sillage of the EdP, it comes across as softer, and I get a little more wood and depth in the base.

Beautiful fragrance with excellent lasting power and lovely sillage, which is sure to invoke many an inquiring mind as to what fragrance you are wearing. Enhances my mood tremendously, especially during the bleak, grey cold winter months. If you adore Jasmine & Gardenia, this is a must have for your collection.

I just wish this has more sillage and longevity. Because it's absolutely beautiful, but I'm forever topping it up, because it fades so quickly. However, I can't add to what others have said, this perfume is an absolute delight.

Gardenia, jasmine & lily. This blend is fresh! If you love fresh florals, particularly gardenia, this is a wonderful choice of fragrance for you! The entire variety of body products are quite nice as well - especially the newly released body butter. Thumbs up - enthusiastically!

I bought this online because I heard rave reviews about it, and I wanted to try a fragrance oil. From the bottle, I smell fresh gardenia and jasmine and something green. On skin? Goodbye jasmine! Straight up gardenia. Albeit it's a fresh gardenia, and smells just like the gardenias in the bush outside my house. Don't get me wrong -- it's a nice gardenia. But for the money I paid, I expected something a little more complicated than just one dinky gardenia. Kai be one of those pleasant-but-not-special scents I turn to when I have nothing else to wear.
