Good Old Royal Bay Rhum...Anything like it out there?
When I was a kid in the 60's and 70's, my dad had a supply of Royal Bay Rhum he'd brought back from Bermuda on vacation. That stuff smelled like Heaven in a bottle. Big silver/pewter crown stopper and a nice bay leaf floating within. It was so incredibly rich, and once I started shaving I would periodically steal a bit for myself. Warm, but not burning, rich, incredibly complex. And the smell was simply otherworldly.
I understand a few years back the formula was changed significantly when the production was moved to the US, and not for the better. Royal Bay Rhum is apparently now a ghost of it's former self.
My question for the old timers: Is there any bay rum aftershave currently available that is close to the original Royal Bay Rhum? I've tried Captain's Choice, which I love, but for different reasons as it is in no way similar to the lovely green/brown stuff that flowed from that bottle of my dads.
I'm soliciting here for the closest available product to that good old original Royal Bay Rhum, and appreciate your suggestions.
I welcome your opinions Friends.
