Profiles are linked to the ink/paper/media used - to be honest you've got lucky with this but when you have to colour match you'll have to go through all of this again.
Personally, I would bit the bullet and get a profile made for your inks to alleviate this problem in the future, think about the mugs that you'll waste getting things sorted to the price of a profile.
I know a nice man that can do profiles (hi Paul) :-)
