1. I held back because of the vacation thing !
    OH ! def. a review Michael when you get them..

    Never tried Bayrum in my life yet I only have half a puck of custom made for you bayrum shave soap here smells nice.
  2. I haven't tried that one, but it does look eerily similar to the Dominica, although the label clearly states this one is distributed by "Body Crystal...whereas Dominica is distributed by CA Antilles. :think002
  3. Hey Joe, any news on the Ogalla.. Inquiring minds wanna know... Have a good weekend.. ::
  4. Its in, its very good (1st use this AM), and a full review will be forthcoming :happy088

    A couple thoughts - cologne and aftershave different beast, both in terms of scent & ingredients. I especially like the aftershave, its the most moisturizing splash I've used thus far.

    The bay-rum scent is very much unlike others I've used....but more on that later :D
  5. Cool ! Cannot wait !!
  6. a delightful bay rum cologne is Burt's Bees, and Pinaud Bay Rum is one of my favorite a/sahves.

  7. I'm a fan of Dominica. Tried others, but this seems the most natural to me (especially compared to Pinaud). I am really tempted by that gallon bottle of Master, though....
  8. Lets get on it brother!
  9. Who me? :D

    I've got some new swag on the way: Professor Patton's

    Maybe a head-to-head competition between the Ogallala and the Patton's? :eek:
  10. Pardon me if this is a stupid question, but couldn't you just take your favorite Bay Rum without glycerin and pour a little glycerin into it? Shake well.
  11. ::git Ya know - that's a great idea! Way to think outside the box. I'll give it a try. :happy088
  12. Where's the best place to buy St John's Bay Rum? How about Ogallala? Merci!
  13. My Bay Rum pick so far.

    Burts Bees ASB.
    St Johns AS/EDC.
  14. St. Johns = http://www.stjohnsbayrum.com/
    Ogallala = ebay.com

    :D
  15. Michelsens = not very impressive

    Nice scent, but then quickly vanishes. Like, within minutes on my face. :(
  16. How novel! Now why didn't I think of that?! :rolleyes: (Actually, I DID think of that, but just wondered if there were other places that might be less expensive, faster, free shipping........whatever.) Thanks, Joe.
  17. History Lesson-St John's Bay Rum

    So far, I have Master and Royall Bay Rum - plus the Ogallala I ordered today. Oh, and the Goatboy soap. Thought it might be interesting to concoct my own. As I was looking for a Bay Rum aftershave recipe, I came across this article. Thought some of you BR Junkies (who shall remain nameless) might find it interesting.

    PS: Got tired of waiting for Joe's full review of Ogallala so I ordered the AS/Cologne 2-pak plus one of those cool 4oz cobalt bottles with the glass stopper (with the aftershave label of course). We shall see...
  18. I know I like the Ogallala Bay Rum.
  19. Good to hear, Rich. Is it anything like Master? That's my favorite sent of the bunch (so far).
