The fact that MDC doesn't make an EDT of this scent is a crime. And then, who would stock it in the US? Took forever for anyone to carry their soap.
It would also be great to know the actual fragrance notes list.

100% agree! Been saying that for years as it’s my favorite Fougere scent in a shave soap and it needs a matching aftershave. About a year and a half ago ( for selfish reasons ) I decided to try and get as close as I could to duplicating the blend and I’m about 90% there but there’s a sweetnesses in the MDC scent that has me stumped. It would make things much easier if the notes were listed.  I’m going to write them an email and ask just for the heck of it and see if they will share that info and then I’ll make one.
I believe there is some rose in there for the sweetness.
In fact, I'm pretty sure you'd get pretty close to their Fougère by combining all their other soap scents into one.

I posted a month, or so, ago about how long my  Ethos Lavender is lasting. Well, I'm still on the first tub, using it quite often, & I still have many shaves remaining. Stellar in every category is Ethos Lavender! My soap today? Ethos Lavender.

I don't have a backup either, but yeah, it's a great soap.
