Bay Rum From ClassicShaving

[Lynn]

Hi Guys,

Just tried the Caribbean imported Bay Rum from ClassicShaving. For all you Bay Rum folks, this stuff is great. Nice aroma that stays around for awhile.

I also tried one of their Ayate' Soap Pouches. This was pretty neet. Put one of Colleen's bars of Soap in it and had a great exfoliation going.

Lynn,

Thanks for mentioning this. I've been thinking
of ordering a bottle. The fact that it sticks around
a while is the selling point for me. I love Bay Rum.

Nice!

The minute I saw this post I went to their site and ordered myself a bottle.

I have been looking for something like this, unfortunately none of the local stores carry anything like this; extra special with a hint of lime.

Thank you for the heads up!

Lynn,

On Classic, I found Taylor's Classic Bay Rum, Dominican Bay Rum Aftershave and Dominican Bay "Lime" Cologne.

Which one of these did you buy?

Thanks,
Tom

Tom,

I would guess that Lynn bought one of the Dominican's.
It's the only one produced in the Caribbean.
Pinaud is made in the USA and I would think that
Taylor's comes from England.

I just checked the site and there are two Dominica products one aftershave and one cologne. I did not see the Aftershave when I checked the site a couple of days ago. So I purchased the cologne.

This raises the question, "What the difference is between their aftershave and cologne as both are categorized as lotions and their respective descriptions are almost identical?"

I believe the only difference is the cologne has a little
more EO and a touch of lime. The after shave has no
lime in it.

I'm definately going to try the AS in the very near future.

I just ordered the AS yesterday. I will let you know about it when I get it.

I have been very pleased with the Bay Rum from saintcharlesshave.com. It's been described on SMF as "Bay Rum on steroids" which is maybe not quite accurate, but a little goes a long way. Another lady who does justice to discriminating gentlemen.

The Bay Rum Cologne I ordered arrived and it smells great. I really like the hint of lime (throughout the day I keep looking for "my lost shaker of salt" and I imagine shots of tequila lined up on the counter here at work)

Now for my question....

Dominca Aftershave vs Dominca Cologne

I guess what I am really after is, "Is it okay to apply cologne to my face after I shave?" (hence "aftershave")

Is it NOT recommended to use cologne in this manner? And if not, why so?

On a side note...

I also noticed ClassicShaving.com has posted posted a new item, Bay Rum "Spice" Aftershave.

Oh, and by the way this stuff is imported by a company located here in San Diego. I may take a drive and visit the store and find out what else they offer.

Thanks for the kind responses!!
