I'm thinking of taking the plunge.
I'm interested in either the K Formula or the Blue.
What are your thoughts?

You cannot go wrong with any of the Myrsol products.The K formula may be a little more potent than the Blue,but both are "peppy" in the menthol department.
I have the Formula K. It's got a very nice peppermint scent that fades very quickly. The menthol kick is nice. It's my favorite in hot weather.
I have the blue and lemon. The both have a nice menthol kick. The lemon scent is obvious. The blue a has similarities to floid blue yet it is different. A nice soft a/s.
I have the blue and the balsamica. I like the blue and I use it fairly regularly. It smells the way you would expect a blue aftershave to smell: menthol, powder, barbershoppy. I think the balsamica is more unique. It's cool and clean like the blue, but very herbal with little to no menthol. It works well as an aftershave, but it's refreshing enough that I will occasionally use it after a shower (no shave) just for the hell of it.
Bottom line: I like the Myrsol products I own and I will likely try more once I've worked through my current bottles.

Myrsol AS are fantastic, my favorite scent wise is the C
The emulsion is great and very moistirizing

Agreed! I recently ordered 1 liter bottles of the F and the C so now I'll never run out.
Where does one find a 1L bottle?
thanks

Gifts and care has them. Reasonably priced. But shipping is expensive. I usually place a large order when I order from them.
Both of those you mentioned are pretty good. But I'd avoid the Lemon . In my experience,it was VERY weak and the scent disappeared immediately ! I know any citrus scent doesn't last,but this one was ridiculously weak. I ended up giving mine away.

I ordered several samples of Myrsol. I don't remember what I ordered, but I know I ordered most of them. I'll try them and let you guys know what I think when they get here in the next few days.
MegaBullfrog09--what a handle! Where can you order samples? I'd love to get some of them too. Thanks-IronMike

It's ran by a guy operating out of the Shave Nook. PM sent.
In June I bought some Myrsol K, C, F/Extra and Lemon from gifts and care. They are all fantastic aftershaves. Formula K is a peppermint fragrance that carries a big menthol kick but within about 20 minutes the scent is gone. Your face feels refreshed and great throughout the day. A very light feeling after shave. My favorite is Formula C which smells of violets. It is very similar to Trumpers violet cream and soap in scent. It has a slight menthol kick as well. My face feels great. It has moisturizing properties as well. Simply a wonderful product. I like pairing it with MDC. Formula Lemon gives a wonderful lemon scent that is long lasting. It is slightly a heavier feeling aftershave. Formula F/extra is great. It smells similar to classic Floid but better in my opinion. It does not dry my skin as Floid does. It offers a menthol blast then calming. It's skin properties are probably tops of the group. In addition, I have Balsamic water. If I was to rate them, it would be:
Formula C - the scent is heavenly. Face feels fantastic
Formula F/Extra love it old school barber shop scent. The only after shave I took on holiday.
Formula Balsamic water great face healing properties. Super product. My wife does not care much for the scent.
Formula K super menthol blast light after shave
Formula Lemon great lemon scent that is long lasting. A heavier feeling after shave. Slight menthol kick as well.
If you have any questions Juan at Gifts and Care would gladly answer your questions. They are a great vendor. I am looking forward to my next purchase, Formula Blue, Antesol, Metisol and Plastic.
All the Best,
Andy

Well, over a year has passed since I made this post. Since that time, I have enjoyed Myrsol immensely. I really like Emulsion. I use it pretty frequently, even if I don't have irritation after a shave.
My favorite splash is F. I haven't been able to get a sample of K yet, but I hope to soon. Blue was kind of a let down in the menthol department and I didn't really find it all that great. I like the scent, but I still like Floid Blue over that one.

I got it for the bottle.
Stayed for the awesomeness.
