kai

In 1999, Gaye Straza created kai: a light, intoxicating scent of gardenia and other exotic white flowers. After years of avoiding perfumes, Straza created this soothing scent for herself, based on her experiences as a youth vacationing in the tropics. Originally offered only in Straza's exclusive Malibu fashion boutique, kai is now available to all in fragrance, bath, body and home products.

Love it!

I was reluctant to purchase this at first because it wasn't available in the store. When I first went online, it was unavailable. When it came back in stock, I jumped on the opportunity to purchase it, and it was a fabulous decision on my part. You don't need to use much, and it is very hydrating. The fragrance is wonderful, and I've received many compliments. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase it again.

Unimpressed

There was barely any fragrance from this hand cream. Plus it didn't leave my hands soft. I will not purchase any other products from this line.

Light and fresh

I bought this hand cream specifically for the gardenia scent, and although it definitely does smell like gardenia, I'd expected something a little bit sweeter. It has more of a fresh, almost soapy scent than a sweet floral one. Nonetheless, I liked it and used all of it! It's lightly moisturizing, absorbs quickly, and doesn't leave any greasy residue.

Now I want the other Kai items

To me, it smells like Lilacs. I don't get a tropical feel but it is wonderful! It also feels really nice on my hands and not greasy.

Perfect hand lotion!

I love the whole Kai line and this hand lotion is the perfect thing to complete your collection. Absorbs quickly with a light scent.

Smells good but....

This smells good but its not as good as I was hoping for it smells a little like lilacs and a little old ladyish. I also love lilacs but I was expecting more tropical flower scenty this does not scream hawaii to me. It was also pretty thin and not as thick as I was hoping either it reminds me more in line of lotions you see at the hallmark store.
