Recommendations for helmet

My Giro is falling apart so I need a new helmet. Not looking for full aero helmet but looking for both protection, comfort, and some aero. So not with long tail, but open to considering helmets. My helmet knowledge is over 5 years old, so suggestions of helmet and online vendors

Specialized Evade. Ride with it for 2-3 years now, duathlons and road. Light, confortable (for me), fairly vented. Aero? Probably more that a regular road helmet but honestly, I did no comparative tests . But I like it.
