This has grown on me and maybe I will be able to wear when old. At first I got something reminiscent of azzaro pour homme or hugo boss pour homme(yellow), but with more of a aldehydic and animalistic feel.
I think this is underappreciated,masculine, unique and quality.
I get 4 to 7 hours and weak projection. The price is simply too high for the concentration. Make it a parfum and up the price 30 dollars and get more customers .
I just dont think people my age around me will appreciate this smell. It is strong,mysterious and even dangerous, but not loud or overbearing. This could be seductive
One of the best modern edgy fragrances using old school notes and inspiration.
I recommend a sniff for the 30 plus men

Heavy, greased leather. Pomade. Floral, yet ultra masculine. Deep, dank woods. Very animalic. Very lush. Complex. Intoxicating. I wish it were a little less expensive, but it IS worth the price. You feel like a million bucks wearing this stuff. Gives confidence and pride to the wearer.

The Golden Edition is a condensed, amped-up version of the original Knize Ten that’s a bit more apt for colder weather, specifically, but at the same time lacks of some of the freshness both in the opening and heart of the original, and in that respect, distances me from what I love about the original.
I definitely get oakmoss in the Golden Edition whereas I didn’t detect it all in the original, and combined with the leather, it creates a certain masculine spicy heaviness that didn’t weigh down the original. Beyond that, it’s a similar note list on paper–citruses, petitgrain, rosemary, etc.–but it’s just less open and floral from beginning to dry down than the original.
I still like Golden Edition a lot, but it’s less fresh, versatile, and classic-smelling than the original, overall, though it does still remind me of some of the 80s/90s powerhouse fragrances.
It feels near-impossible to judge Golden Edition outside of the context of the original, but on its own, it’s a good, strong, spicy men’s fragrance that’s likable and worth trying, for sure.
7 out of 10

Class, quality: perfect for a real gentleman.
Difficult to find in the normal stores, and that’s one of the reason why I bough it immediately when by accident I found it.
Longevity: 12hours
Projection: 8 hours
The Golden version is absolutely with better longevity and projection than the classic version.
On my skin stay for 12 hours and on the clothes more than 1 day.
I really like also Knize Sec.
A gem in the massy market.

Knize Ten elevated to perfection. A bit smoother, deeper and yet the very same backbone as its older sibling. Performance is stunning. This juice is a statement and a proof that the whole edt vs edp vs extrait vs whatever is judt marketing nonsense. If you wanna make a good, quality and long lasting fragrance, THIS is how its done!

Sampled this juice, together with the original Knize Ten. I think they are very similar, but the golden edition is gentler and more wearable, so that’s the version I chose to buy (it’s still insanely strong, long lasting and ass-kicking masculine). Smells literally (I mean it!) like a car interior. It’s a kind of vanilla leather, not the rubberry smell of new boots or wallet, which I expected. One spritz is enough. Will last till the next ice age.

Wonderful perfume, we love this one so much…very long lasting leather perfume for men and ladies can wear it too…

I Wore Knize Ten yesterday, so thought I would try Knize Ten Golden Edition today. K10 GE is very similar to K10. The opening was a little less floral with a bit more barbershop to my nose. So not as feminine an opening as K10. That is a good thing. The dry down is also similar to K10. I get the same leather vibe, but with smoothed out edges and without the powdery note I get from K10. Projection and longevity are great. If I did not already own K10 I would add a bottle of this… who knows, if I find a good deal on this one I may add it as well.

This is the fragrance that i can’t travel without as i was introduced to it in 2014 only! it just changed my mind in the direction that the Cuoio Nobile by Pineider was nothing but a kid towards his sensei! specially with this version as it is more masculine, more long lasting, and quite offensively seduction.
the kind of leather this fragrance presents is the heavy rain, dry rice, and the extreme masculine olfactive. you can’t get used to it easily unless you are very open to try new things that might collapses your believes and principles if they weren’t built on a robust powerful base… sounds harsh eh 😉
it’s neither harsh nor skunk, neither safe nor husky, it is quite the leather that only the man with extreme confidence would wear IF he liked it 😉
and it’s quite similar to Cuir Mauresque by Serge Lutens but with more masculinity and more toughness. NEVER buy it without trying it even if it’s quite cheap to you.

Warning this is not for everyone , one of those weird frags that only a few select will like . It is a lady killer as in it will literally kill them from stank. smells like u just sprayed bug killer on a piece of thick leather. ok now i gotta go shower.

This review is based on a decant. Like many have said, this is a smoother and rounder version of original with a tinge of sweetness to my nose. The original is dry and dusty. Performance is on pair on my skin with the original with moderate projection and good longevity. While I enjoy wearing both versions, I prefer this just a tiny bit better. For any classic birch-tar based leather scent lover, definitely give both versions a try.

It is hard to review this without comparing it to the original Knize Ten, but this really can stand alone as a SUPERB leather fragrance in its own right.
It opens with a soft bitter leather aroma, under which is just a hint of dubbin or polish (but far softer than in the original Knize Ten, and never quite reaching that “petrol” note which is so powerful there). There are warm amber notes and a softly growling animalic tone, which stays as a growl and never becomes a roar…and this combines with slightly sweet geranium and jasmine to give a perfect contrast to the macho leather and castoreum.
Sillage and longevity are both excellent and this is quite a versatile scent: equally at home in the office or on a night out. If you are a hard-core leatherhead who craves greasy black leather and gasoline then go for original Knize Ten….if you want a softer, smoother, more sophisticated leather which is every bit as masculine, the choose KT Golden Edition.

They should call this Knize Ten – Gold Toilet Water from random men. I get an overwhelming auto mechanic garage smell on top. If this kind of scent is what you’re looking for, it does it VERY well. Its notes are bold and pure.
Admin RchP – :
Knize Ten Gold is one of my favourite leathers. It is powerful, long lasting and with a bitter, leathery smell. Very masculine. On my skin Gold is more about leather while the original KT is more about petroleum.
Highly recommended.
BOTTAK – :
Knize 10 * Golden is the superior leather scent. The original being sold today is not nearly as long lasting or potent as people will lead you to believe.
I’ve actually thrown away a 50ml after I realized it.
If you do like the original better I recommend that you try Serge Lutens Cuir M. It has a similar type of leather note but performs much better.
There are a few other scents that have a similar leather as well. They may not have the same structure as K10 but better all around performers.
As fas as I am concerned K10 Golden is a masterpiece.

My next buy, I cannot wait to receive this. My sample from Lucky Sent was amazing.
Bottle worthy.

RAMPED UP KNIZE 10 ORIGINAL
Others seem to think the opposite – but I tested both side by side (one on each arm), and made sure I double checked the sample vials – and for me, ‘gold’ was stronger (grease/leather/oil) and a bit less refined. Might be a batch issue.
Lasted much longer than the original. And more projection.
If I had to buy today, I’d buy the original. ‘Gold’ is more challenging.
Original easier to wear, and a bit more elegant.

I also have to agree that the gold edition is a silver medalist compared to the original. That being said, this is one of the best perfumes I have ever smelled. I am a woman and would very happily wear it for formal occassions, in lieu of Shalimar, Habanita, L’Heure Bleue… I wouldn’t wear it to seduce men though, I would wear it as a tribute to the man who has seduced me… To my nose Knize is warmer, richer, more luxurious, more complex, exquisite!I cannot imagine why all men do not wear it, it is the absolute men’s perfume, if Rick in Casablanca was wearing a perfume it would be Knize Ten. Love!

The golden edition seems like a simplied and stripped back version of the original. The burnt rubber smell is pronounced but the lingering floral seems to have dialled right back into the background. Those that find the original too floral should check this out. Otherwise, stick with the original. I find the original much more complex and better balanced. The golden edition feels somewhat screechy towards the drydown as only the rubber and tobacco notes remain. Sillage is on par with the original.
However, the original Knize Ten, in all its glory, still reigns supreme.
Original: 10/10
Golden Edition: 8.5/10
гарасим – :
Launched at the turn of the millennium to celebrate the 75th anniversary of Knize Ten, the Golden Edition strikes me as a “smoother”, polished an civilized version of the original. Slightly reacher in amber, toned down for what concerns the leather.
Maybe less compelling than its older brother but still amazing. Could make a fantastic option for anyone who finds the original a tad too challenging.
Rating: 9/10
