Thread: Did Martin de Candre Switch to Plastic Tubs For All Of Their Soaps?

Since MdC Rose came out, I've been using it for every MdC shave I do because I really fell in love with the scent. But today I was feeling "classic" and grabbed my tub of "scented". I totally forgot the regular stuff is in a heavy, paperweight-feeling glass container, whereas the Rose is in a nearly identical looking, but very different feeling plastic tub. The glass felt great in my palm as I loaded up the badger.

My question is, does anyone know if the plastic tubs were just for the limited edition soaps, or has MdC now converted their entire line to plastic? It would sure as hell cut their costs, not that I saw their prices go down or anything.

The description for the 200 g fougere, scented, and unscented jars says they come in PETG plastic jars.

Ah, I missed that in the description. That confirms they have switched over. No big deal, but I'm gonna keep my glass jar and refill it. Thanks!

A year ago, last November, I was told by Old Town Shaving in Pasadena CA, that MDC was switching from glass to plastic, and they had some Lavender in both jars.

I bought the last 2 jars, they had in stock. The Fougere, I bought at the same time was in plastic only.

Glass container or Plastic, the product inside is what counts.
