Two Eau de Toilette

Declared Notes

The Architecture

A floral addition to the Knize family, Knize Two, created in 1978, is a fresh floral chypre with a beautiful, cut violet-leaf note singing in its heart. Clean and fresh but with minor-key notes that keep its melody interesting, Knize Two could help usher in spring with its sunny disposition. It opens with a green and slightly soapy accord offset by bitter-fresh galbanum and petitgrain, all of which is sharpened with bergamot and lemon. A subtle fruit note adds warmth to Knize Two's radiant florals, among them rose, jasmine, and carnation. Its woody/mossy drydown �� with cedarwood, sandalwood, and musk �� gives scratchy texture to the smooth and subtley lingering florals that shine through the base. A throwback to a time when a clean scent could have complexity and on the feminine side of unisex, Knize Two is reminiscent of Geoffrey Beene's classic Grey Flannel �� if the latter were wearing a garland of flowers around its neck.
