The Story
Knize Ten is a legendary leather fragrance that has been a benchmark for masculine elegance since 1924. The 2015 Parfum de Toilette version honors the original formula with a rich, complex blend of leather, spices, and woods. It opens with a burst of citrus and aldehydes, then settles into a warm, animalic leather heart with floral touches. The base is a deep, resinous mix of oakmoss, cedar, and musk. This is a scent for a man who appreciates history and sophistication.
