Help with a scent match

[John Antonioni]

Hello all,

Wondering if I can have some help.
Given that I am doing a long-term experiment with Martin De Candre Original, can anyone please suggest splash for me? I have been using Proraso Green and Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements Gondolier. Are there any better suggestions out there? The MDC is lavender, rosemary (more bergamot like), and very, very subtle mint.

All ideas would be welcome.

Thanks in advance for your help.

John

MDC Original is a lovely scent. I still regret selling my tub.

I found that the scent was subtle enough that it could pair with just about anything.

Some of my favorites that matched it a bit mor than others were Speick, Myrsol Emulsion, and Myrsol Balsalmic Water (Rosemary, lavender, Thyme)

A little pricy but Czech & Speake "Oxford & Cambridge" pairs really well with MDC Original.

Something like Floris No.89 would be a good pairing as well.

Thanks. I’ve had more than one recommendation for Agua Balsamica from Myrsol. The description of rosemary , thyme scents got me a bit on edge. I’ve ordered a bottle, I’ll let you know how it turns out. I hope I don’t end up smelling like a herbed roast chicken though. LOL
