If you can find it, the Lafarge-like product will do it. It's called Lumnite in the U.S.

If not, and you decide to go Portland cement, make sure you add the fireclay. That is what will hold your mortart together over the years, and the Portland eventually starts to give up from the expansion and contraction.
