Long shot as in I don't think many people use the flavour, but I could be wrong, certainly historically it was popular ish, and there's some old codgers about

Can anyone recommend a good Mulberry Florentine flavour, like the old RH one or better?
Is the reincarnate flavour any good?
I had my eye on some, black reactangular bottle, company that's stopped in the U.K...can I remember the name
Or do I default to Forgotten Flavours, advice much appreciated

Think dynamite baits did the flavours under licence from RH. Then I think an Italian company owned the flavour after. The orginal was in a glass bottle and if spilled on stuff could rot fabric. Back in early 90s mixed it with honey for a fantastic dip.

Yep iirc the Italian company do the reincarnate green/yellow bottle, still widely available, but is it any good...hmm
I have some of the original powdered palatant, use it on maggots nowadays.

Dan at BIologic Baits used to do a really good one but not sure he still does. Worth a message on FB.

If you listen to Marcus Watts podcast on Carp Chronicles he mixes the flavours for the new Italian RH owners.

Maybe a message to him about the flavour?

Did they supply sense appeal then?

I've read somewhere that it was bought in by RH and rebranded as Sense appeal and that its still available ?????

Marcus Watts of Mirage baits. Bottles Sense appeal for The Rod Hutchinson brand.

I believe Catchit labs sell there own version of Sense appeal. The fella that runs it used to be a Chemist for Nash bait.

Ah interesting re Catch it labs

They do a red liver oil which im guessing is based on the old Nash red liver oil palatant then?

I've just bought a bottle of the RH stuff to try. It's the clear bottle one with the green label. Will the carp really be able to tell the difference ? I'm not so sure but I'm going to find out aren't I 😂

I guess we're stuck in our ways, if you've had success you want to use the product as it was, if that's still possible. The one thing I don't like, things becomming unavailable, even if you make your own, at some point something will need replacing due to unavailability or new laws...maybe we should just stick to 50/50 boilies

Yes it's all about confidence too isn't it. I'm willing to give it a try anyway, hopefully they oblige !
