    Default What goes with MWF?

    If I were to look for a fragrance to combine with MWF, what would I seek? An aftershave and a cologne, perhaps.

    I am enthused about using the full line of Tabac with my lovely Tabac soap, as well as the DR Harris Arlington and perhaps the T&H Trafalgar lineup, but MWF is a standalone product and I wonder what would work to complement the wonderful wool fat.

    I also enjoy T&H Spanish Leather, if that helps.

    Any suggestions for an ASB/AS/Cologne to combine with Mitchell's?

    Hello, jdto:
    You have a fine lineup of products. The final rinse generally washes away any leftover scent from soaps and creams with soft fragrances. Mitchell's Wool Fat fragrance falls in that category. Your aftershave fragrance, therefore, will not be diluted. As for Truefitt & Hill's Spanish Leather aftershave, my dear friend, that was made for the gods — and for pilgrims such as yours truly. I plan to visit my Truefitt & Hill Spanish Leather aftershave once or twice a week into the next century.
    Stay well.

    I agree wth Obie. Once you rinse, and perhaps use Alum, or witch hazel, Just about any trace of soap you used is gone.

    I really like MWF soap because it has such a mild scent. I too think you can use what ever you want to for an after shave product. That Spanish Leather sounds great.....seem to remember that my father used that when I was a wee bairn.

    Yes, due to its mild scent MWF is very versatile for pairing up AS's and EdT's. You can use anything, but I particularly like the coupling of MWF and Musgo Real AS. Leaves my face feeling softer than any other combination

    I like to use either Aqua Velva or any bay rum.

    I've been thinking about getting some Bay Rum. I have yet to have the pleasure of trying that particular scent.
