PSG secured a 5-4 triumph courtesy of doubles from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Ousmane Dembele, alongside a strike from Joao Neves.
Bayern responded with four goals themselves, including Kane's conversion from the spot, complemented by efforts from Michael Olise, Dayot Upamecano and Luis Diaz.
Speaking post-match, Kane commended Bayern's defensive display, despite shipping five goals in the French capital.

"You saw two high-level teams in attacking play and transition," Kane said on Amazon Prime Video's coverage of the game.
"Overall, we look at their goals, the penalty was harsh but we could have killed the game earlier on.
"We fought and we clawed and we're back in the tie. I thought there was amazing defending, even though there were nine goals. Sometimes the forwards will come out on top, but the back line was outstanding today.
"You will always feel there are areas to improve on. We go to the Allianz with nothing to lose, we're at our best when we're intense and physical.
"It'll be who takes their moments next week, with the crowd behind us, we hope that can push us over the line."

"I love Harry Kane but there is no way he can be praising his defenders [in his post-match interview]," Rooney said. "The defending from both teams was really bad from both teams, I think he is being modest there."
The return fixture between PSG and Bayern is scheduled for the Allianz Stadium on May 6, with a spot in the final at stake.
The victor of that encounter will meet either Arsenal or Atletico Madrid in the final in Budapest next month. The semi-final first leg between the Gunners and the Spanish side takes place on Wednesday evening at the Metropolitano Stadium.
