Does anyone know of an EdT or EdP that smells like Proraso Green? I love the smell of Proraso, but it doesn't last nearly long enough into the day.

I think you can get it at Bath and body works... or Online for sure.

Excellent! I'll check these out!
Hi Luke, and which is best? Did you check them?
While not exactly a dead ringer, lately i've been pairing AdP Colonia Club with Proraso Green. They work very well together.
Wow, that's expensive - but thanks!
I'd be very curious as to the C O Bigelow option. Anyone try it?
Only thing with the Elixir Green is that it has slight woody scent going for it. So not an exact match to Proraso, but pretty close.
Like fougere?
I have Proraso Green AS and CO Bigelow Green Elixir. Just my humble opinion, but their scents aren't at all similar. You get alot of eucalyptus from Proraso Green and NONE in the Bigelow Green. Bigelow Green is more similar to Pino Silvestre. More piney and woody scented.
Funny, don't know that I've ever really noticed eucalyptus in the Proaso green AS. I definitely get it in the soap tho.

LOL! It's right on the label. "Olio di eucalipto" = eucalyptus oil
Oh silly me! Just because it's on the label... IN ITALIAN, then I guess I should have been able to detect that note with my nose. How could I not, IT WAS PRINTED ON THE LABEL!!!
Does the Bigelow Elixir Green smell like Sir Irisch Moos?
I have both and I agree not the same. With that said I love the smell of Proraso Green AS splash but it has no lasting power and I've been saying they should come out with a cologne. Also feel the same about a classic barbershop scent.
I hope someone is listening.
I agree. I'd love a Proraso Green EDT. My understanding has always been that eucalyptus oil naturally has no real longevity. It would be very difficult to make a fragrance based on Green.
While not similar, I enjoy T&H Grafton to pair with Proraso Green.
Keep in mind, big elements of the Proraso are menthol and eucalyptus, which are rarely embodied in cologne.
