Kahaia

Kahaia by The Body Shop is a sweet, creamy tropical floral that evokes a sun-drenched island at the end of a summer day. The opening features a blend of white flowers, jasmine, and tiare with a subtle hint of citrus and pink pepper, creating a fresh but softly luminous first impression. As it develops, the fragrance settles into a warm, vanilla-amber base with a pronounced praline edge that gives it a gourmand quality without overwhelming the floral core. Many users describe it as feeling like a body oil or beach perfume — smooth, rich, and tactile — with an elegant, natural-smelling bouquet of tropical blooms rather than synthetic notes. The scent is highly wearable, particularly in warm weather, and performs best during spring and summer. While the longevity is moderate, many report it lasting several hours, especially when sprayed on clothing, and the sillage remains intimate to moderate. It's a crowd-pleasing, budget-friendly fragrance that delivers a sense of indulgent tropical luxury, making it ideal for vacation wear or everyday summer elegance. The scent stands out for its subtle layering of floral and gourmand notes — sweet but not cloying — and is appreciated for its originality within The Body Shop’s lineup.
