Anything similar to Alvarez Gomez?

[Ken T M]

Hello all.

My default scent for the last 15 years has been an old Spanish classic, Alvarez Gomez. Problem is, it's a little hard to come by outside of Spain.

Does anyone know of a more widely available scent which is at least similar?

Alvarez Gomez is a traditional Eau de Cologne but with a more pronounced lemon/citric top note than most others .
There are so many variations .
4711 , Hierbas De Ibiza , Roger & Gallet Jean Marie Farina , ect ...
I favor Alvarez Gomez myself .

I have bought it before from here:

I really like the scent but it is fleeting on me. I may buy a bottle of the concentrated version.

...you want the splash not the spray .
the towelettes , shampoo , bodywash , all good .
what's not so good is the cost ; i think in spain this is about a third of the price .
i think it's sold in drugstores there , not niche perfume boutiques .
but credit to min new york for bringing it in ; i think they are the US distributor .
