Bill, you are correct, my brother inlaw invented the scent Gravel – A Man’s Cologne. He lived in the same building as Johnny Carson and was fortunate enough to be invited to his show.

I must tell you with a heavy heart that Michael did pass away this April. He was just days from his 99th birthday. He was such a strong vibrant man. His wife and family misses him terribly.

Gravel is now in short supply. If you would like to contact Gravel cologne, please email me (deebeav@hotmail.com) and I will pass the information on to my sister.

I love and still use this cologne reguarly since 1958. FYI it was invented and produced by a Chemist named Michael Knudson (97yrs), who still lives in New Jeresy. Dave Garraway,the first host of The Today Show ( I believe) happend to discover this wonderful product and invited Mike on his show. That launched this cologne across America. There is a lot more to the history of this cologne that Mike now only sells from his home to a fortunate few.

Best regards,

Thanks for your insight and quality blog material. I’ve always enjoyed coming to this blog as a breather from all the sites that pretty much focus on consumerism rather than personal taste through shared common interest be it owned or purchased. I’m not saying I don’t consume with the best of them but you pay attention to those little things and add a certain cheekiness to your content which I appreciate. Have a happy new year!
