This soap smells EXACTLY like gummy coke bottle candy. Delicious.

While thats not quite the smell I look for in a bay rum it just goes to show that there is something for everybody in bay rum.

Have you tried the Wickham's Club Cola soap - it smells like (surprise) cola! Big Grin If thats a scent you like then there's one to add to your list, its not rum but you can add it to rum with a twist of lime and its ok.

VERY interested. Especially since I gave up all soda 11 years ago. Good price too. How's the performance?

Came back to the Gilbert Henry this morning and found that I both liked the scent and the refreshing feel of the splash. It's on deck for tomorrow's shave as well.

I think you'll need to solicit feedback from someone who has tried Wickham recently because they may have updated the formula. The tub I got was a few years back when they were calling it Super Smooth - it was a smaller diameter tub that resembled a cream cheese container with a snap on lid. The scent was great but I don't recall the performance as being memorable. To be fair, that was a few years back and my experience and technique have improved a lot since then - I'm finding that products that didn't perform well for me in the past now miraculously do. Go figure. In any case, I'll dig into my box of unloved products to see if I can find the Wickham and see if its improved with timeSmile

Route 66 "Rum Runner" soap. While there is no bay in "Rum Runner" I still consider it a Bay Rum product

I've not tried Derby City or Providence Perfume but now I'm curious.
