10 Years by Pocket Scents – An Original Unisex Perfume, Crafted in Glasgow

original-perfumes-from-scotland-by-pocket-scents-uk

On the 10th of October 2025, we proudly launched 10 Years, a unisex fragrance created to celebrate a decade of Pocket Scents. Founded on that same date in 2015, this release marks ten years of passion, creativity, and commitment to quality perfumery.

From the beginning, we knew this scent had to be special. It wasn’t just another launch, it was a milestone.

And importantly, 10 Years is an original creation, not a dupe, not an imitation, and not inspired-by.
It was conceived, developed, and blended in our small perfume lab in Glasgow, Scotland, where we carefully craft our fragrances with precision and pride.


Developed the Right Way – No Shortcuts

We invested an enormous amount of time and resources into getting this fragrance right. Dozens of whisky-and-iris compositions were tested before we narrowed the field down to six exceptional blends.

Those six were distributed to family, friends, and loyal customers for honest feedback.

One stood above the rest.

Comments included:

  • “Oooo nice.”

  • “When can I buy this?”

  • “OMG what is this?”

The defining moment came when a long-standing customer, someone known for his brutally honest opinions said:

“This is awesome. Don’t sell this for less than £200 a bottle.”

That’s when we knew we had created something remarkable.


A Record-Breaking Launch

The launch of 10 Years became our most successful release to date. While we believed in its quality, the sales volume exceeded our expectations.

To everyone who supported this anniversary launch, thank you. You made our tenth year unforgettable.


What Makes 10 Years So Special?

10 Years is a rich, warm, and sophisticated unisex fragrance built around contrast, comfort, and character.

It opens with an intoxicating yet subtle splash of aged malt whisky, refined and confident from the very first spray. As it develops, a smooth hazelnut heart wrapped in iris and chestnut adds elegance and depth. The dry-down is creamy and memorable, with vanilla and woody notes lingering beautifully on the skin.

Fragrance Notes

Top Notes:
Aged Malt Whisky, Cinnamon

Heart Notes:
Hazelnut, Iris, Chestnut, Dried Fruits

Base Notes:
Vanilla, Woody Notes

The result is a warm, slightly boozy, gourmand-leaning scent with sophistication and balance.


High-Quality, Original Craftsmanship

Unlike mass-produced fragrances created in large commercial facilities, 10 Years was:

  • Conceived in-house

  • Carefully refined over months of testing

  • Blended in our Glasgow perfume lab

  • Crafted to celebrate ten years of independent perfumery

This is original artisan fragrance creation, made with intention, not imitation.

If you appreciate refined whisky-and-iris compositions such as Givenchy Gentleman Réserve Privée, you may recognise a similar warmth and elegance in style, but 10 Years stands proudly as its own unique creation.

  • Appreciate originality in perfumery
