Gravel
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.

I love this scent! It’s powdery, soft, floral, earthy and not overly sweet. It’s very well blended and lasts all day, sending little whiffs of powdery goodness to my nose. I have a weak spot for Iris and Violet, so this scent is right up my alley. It’s not a very young, modern scent but it’s classy, timeless and sophisticated. Full bottle worthy!

Very exceptional smell. It reminds me of an other parfume. I think I will take that. Very good. A lithle but sweet, but also rauchig.

Sehr intensiver seifiger sauberer Duft. Riecht ein bisschen nach Wäscheschrank. Für mich ein Highlight.

Eau D’Evolution
Gravel
Eau D’Evolution by Gravel is pure energy in a bottle! Sparkling bergamot and crisp apple instantly refresh, while vibrant mint revitalizes your senses. In the heart, lavender and spicy sage create a cool, modern vibe. Finally, the warm base of soft amber and refined woods adds elegant depth. A perfect scent for anyone who’s always on the move, embracing life with endless optimism and style.
The Evolution of Gravel
Knudsen set the foundation—personally hand-selecting Hudson River stones and overseeing production into his late 90s. Now, Christian fulfills that legacy with the same uncompromising commitment to craftsmanship and detail. Under his leadership, vintage scents have been revived, new compositions created, and the classic aesthetic honored—balancing heritage with modern expectations.
Driven by Bold Vision
Christian Blessing’s approach is fearless: expanding the Transcendence collection—25% extrait fragrances launched in 2025—to include Eau d’Aspiration, Eau d’Ésire, Eau d’Dominance, and Eau d’Évolution. These bold, emotion-driven elixirs honor Gravel’s past while pushing boundaries for bold personalities today. They express attitude, evolution, and presence.
