Although I own both of them I do not consider them as heavyweight leather fragrances. Each one of those two projects a different aspect of leather : Knize's leather is sweeter, almost powdery and more refined, one the other hand Bandit's leather is bitter, more resinous, almost "worn". Both fragrances share some common top and heart notes , so I think one should wait until the drydown. That's when both leathers unveil their special characteristics.

I think I'm leaning more towards Knize Ten, but who knows, maybe my opinion will change due to the frustration of K10 not being readily available here in the U.S. Ha.

knize ten is the king of leathers and the emperor of male fragrances. while i like Or black and find it very unique, it is not in the same league with knize. if you look for "The real McCoy" go with knize.

These are different leather types and different medleys.

I don't get this kind of comparisons. Knize Ten is a luxurious blend, ambery, warm, embracing. Or Black is a severe, dark, obscure multi facets chypre-y leather...I like them both for very different reasons.
