    Default Homemade bay rum

    So I have been looking into making my own aftershave, (help save a little money) I’ve seen some recipes that look legit and others...not so much! Anyone in here tried this? If so, how did they turnout? I am specifically looking to make a bay rum aftershave, any favorite recipes out there? Let me know how things turned out for you.

    Thanks,

    Nathan

    I had member str8fencer on here make me a liter of bay rum splash.
    It was awesome! At least on par with all the other commercial products I've tried over the years.

    I made some several years ago that I'm still working through. It turned out great - will try to find the post with the recipe. It's here somewhere...

    EDIT: found the thread - lots of ideas here:

    It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
    This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

    I've done it several times. I use only my own now. Next batch will be made from alcohol that I have distilled...so even more of my own.
