    I bought this the day it was released with the idea that it was going to easily place itself among my favorites. I mean it’s the same people who made Invasion Barbare and now they’ve created a modern barbershop fougere….what could go wrong? Well, just about everything. Le Barbier de Tanger is a huge dud. And although it’s been a while since I last smelled it, and I can’t recall its notes specifically, I remember the impression it left upon me so my review will basically focus on that. Immediately upon smelling Le Barbier, I thought “Okay, MDCI’s trying to create a niche version of Sauvage.” It opens with the same kind of fresh bergamot accord before moving into a lavender-driven dryer sheet variety of spicy musk. While the opening is nice–the bergamot a juicy, sparkling rendition supported by fresh, green aromatics, it quickly devolves into something rather unimpressive and bland. The problem here, is that nothing comes across particularly original or interesting. And alhough its MDCI, which typically uses quality ingredients, they don’t seem as deep or rich here as in their other releases. Add to that an overdose of the aroma chemical “calone,” which has an obnoxious, headache-inducing quality, and Le Barbier de Tanger really comes across as Parfums MDCI’s attempt at mainstream mediocrity. It’s on par with Lalique’s L’Insoumis (another letdown), and rather than paying $275, you can get the same for 30 or 40. And while I’m no fan of Sauvage either, I certainly can remember it a lot better than Le Barbier, whose biggest flaw, in my opinion, is its utter lack of distinction. I have a feeling that eventually this is going to be the discounted MDCI–the one bottle in the boutique whose price is cut to $125 while the rest remain at twice as much. But even with 50% off I wouldn’t consider it. I owned Le Barbier for about two weeks. In other words, I got rid of it as quickly as possible. In the end, this gets a resounding thumbs down and a very middling, 6/10 rating.

    another cologne sold at the price of an extrait, good duration and low sillage..got burnt with Invasion Barbare this time I sampled carefully and understood that these outings are money thrown out of the window!

    Parfums MDCI Le Barbier de Tangier is a more agreeable barbershop scent than Invasion Barbare, in my opinion, but lacks the daring elements to which many are drawn by Invasion Barbare.
    The easiest way of classifying the difference is to say that LBDT is lighter and cleaner, and therefore less potentially offensive than IB.
    LBDT is more citrus-intensive at the opening and fresher in the dry down, contra the heavy dose of patchouli I get out of IB in its dry down.
    Think citrus and lavender, giving way to petigrain and woods, mainly. I hardly get any apple or patchouli in the heart but this might have something to do with its performance, which isn’t very strong.
    LBDT is safe, agreeable, but uninspiring, but I’d nonetheless aver that I like and would wear the scent, and would even buy a bottle if it were extremely lower in price, as $250 for 75ml is far too steep for a scent that’s not terribly interesting, not a great performer, and vaguely resembles cheaper barbershop counterparts.

    Le Barbier de Tanger broke my heart. Yeah, like a child on Christmas day who unwrapped the biggest gift to find out it was pajamas and socks. That was the effect this fragrance had on me. Charge it to the hype surrounding it and of course my own grandiose expectations (MDCI Invasion Barbare is one of my all time faves). The opening is fantastic; green and harsh, you’re strapping in ready for a great take off into barbershop bliss and then this fragrance for lack of a better word fizzles out. This scent jumped from Cool Water to Chanel Platinum Egoiste and then faded into an aquatic Sauvage-esque style fragrance. This composition lacks across the board in citrus and in spice. What we are left with is an over priced ambroxan- calone bomb. I was truly disappointed.

    The first 15 minutes is barbershop opulence! However, the scent transitions quickly into a generic skinscent that will give you a bad case of buyers remorse for sure.

    Many regard perfume as being worn during a specific season. I, on the other hand, wear Interlude Man during the summer heat. A secret, now revealed to you here, is that I long for a scent that is not, well, a room clearing beast during the summer months. I do believe I have found it with this superbly blended scent.
    I am on my sixth sample, and after the holiday rush is over, will buy a full bottle. With out the bust however as I find that silly and a tad over the top. What follows below is a summary of my thinking that has gone into the process of buying a full bottle.
    My single problem with citrus, or barber shop type scents, is that I am routinely left with a mess of notes that do not seem clearly defined or well represented. I could pick many examples here, but for the sake of politeness and brevity I will refrain. It has always seemed to my nose, up until meeting this lovely scent, that many were interested in stuffing as many fruits into a bottle as would fit, and then letting them all gestate in the most indiscriminate of manner. No longer.
    Here I get a lavender, I get bergamot, basil, and a whisper of oakmoss in a straight line. I do so appreciate a scent that does what it does well. Here, for a full eight to twelve hours, I get three distinct notes that bounce off each other. Could it be oakmoss lurking in the background? Teasing me? Oh its probably some highly regulated knockoff synthetic, which is just fine with me as this scent works as my new ‘summer’.
    I confess this is a rather odd moment for me as I own close to nothing like this in my rather timid collection. Beastly, stank, dark, smoke and wood are my usual daily drivers.
    Yet this scent is mixed so well, and has such a distinct and confident point of view, that I simply must have a bottle.
