Well, it's from France. IMO there's not much that compares to MdC. I have the Lucien, and for me...it's.. com se com sa.
However, I think he is still trying new approaches to soap making and scent, so the newer versions of Lucien may be completely different from my tin which was bought from Jason's first stock of Lucien.
If you haven't tried MdC.....I highly recommend it!!! :tu It will give you a benchmark to judge the different soaps.
