After Knudsen’s death, Gravel faded into vintage obscurity – until Christian Blessing, a devoted enthusiast, rediscovered it. Captivated by the brand’s timeless, complex scents and rich history, he dedicated years to tracing heirs and acquiring the trademark—driven by a deep desire to revive Gravel, preserve its family roots, and honor Knudsen’s ideals. Restoring the brand in 2018, the fragrances returned to exclusive boutiques.
