Thread: Bay Rum Parade "AtC"

Oh, and I thought I'd ask while we're on the subject, something about Pinaud's bay rum.

I have a general fondness for all Pinaud aftershaves (yeah, even Lilac Vegetal). The appeal is partly due to their history and tradition (the pricing doesn't hurt either). But I notice in many of their aftershaves, especially in the bay rum, a rather funky, almost skunky note. I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed this, or maybe it's jusy my olfaction?

Sorry if this slightly your thread....

hon'd,

I don't pick that element up. There seems to be a very strong clove element, but there is nothing in the scent which is off-putting to me. And for about 6 bucks a bottle I think its fragrance is very on-putting.

Got one for your second group (I think second group?). Sorry no pic (can't find our camera) however, here is the link:

Great stuff and a little goes a long way.

Yep and it just went on the list of gotta try LOL
Thanks for posting Rusty
Reading the link it looks as thought it might actually go in group 3, the sugar cane reference, could mean a real rum base on that one, which moves it to the top of my list automatically......

Superior 70 bay rum is the real-deal, folks. It appears to have only alcohol and bay leaf oil, and it smells like it... I grew up in Bermuda, and had the pleasure of knowing what we called "spice tree" leaves.

This is a very authentic smelling product, and cheap too! $1.89 for 11.8 fl oz bottle at Walgreens in East Boston. Cha-ching!


.

anyone know where the cheapest place to order Royall bay rum? also where can I get bois D inde?

After making my own, I doubt I'm going to buy anymore. I really like mine. Thanks you guys on this forum. I've concocted my own *secret* recipe. And I like making my own. The more I add to the rum, the more room I "have" to make in the bottle.

Hey Doc!

Royall Lyme Fragrances 4 -8oz for $68 - eBay (item 130286927802 end time Feb-16-09 13:52:46 PST)

I literally just ordered this about 30 minutes ago. Figured with 100% + feedback and 1884 feedback it was safe. $68 total for 4 - 8 oz bottles, no where is even close on price if you don't mind stocking up! I got two Lymes and Two BayRhums. Wish I had seen this an hour earlier I would have contracted you for a split of the 4 and just ordered all Bay Rhum.

Yes, I am mostly back form the self-imposed "banishment"!

Wow, was going to start a thread and ask for new aftershave suggestions and found this. You have all the information I need right here. Thank for putting this together Glen!!!
