I have several Ogallala Bay Rum products, and I would like them to be a bit stronger in smell. Funny how opinions differ. Ogallala Bay Rum company was started not that long ago by a guy in Ogallala NE and made in the basement IIRC. Grew to such popularity it was moved to an actual building. I used to talk to the owner/creator but they have grown so much that they no longer sell directly to the public. Says something about their products.

I met my wife in Ogallala, NE in 1993 and growing up went to many movies at either the drive in or the downtown theater in Ogallala. Old cow town that was the end of a long cattle drive from Texas to the shipping docks of the Union Pacific Rail Road. Cowboys would get a bath, a straight razor shave and copious amounts of Bay Rum after shave and head off to the saloons to spend money on whiskey, gambling and women.

Witch hazel is one of it's main ingredients, and if too strong a scent, just cut it a bit with that. How much? Just use a little and shake and try until you find your right "sweet spot". I've even added just a dash of grain alcohol to it to help with facial disinfection after the shave, but one must be cautious as too much EToH will make for a more unpleasant burning sensation.
