I had stocked up on the white container B&M Bay Rum. I don't know why but I think I have 3 tubs plus the one I gave to my brother. The glissant is good too, I've never done a side by side to see if I can tell any scent difference. You know what I miss? Barrister and Mann Bay Rum Kyovu, actually all of their Kyovu. It was discontinued to allow for some adjustments to the formula because of sensitivities or something like that and then it just kind of got forgotten and pushed out of everyone's minds. I loved that stuff.

I’m not a bay rum fan, as I don’t like the clove and brine smell, but Jeeves of Hudson Street has a very non traditional bay rum that I think is excellent.

You should always have bay rum on hand, especially B&M Bay Rum. You don't ever want to not have any.

Will's take on Bay Rum is really nice, a little bit more refined than your garden variety bay rum, sort of a Sunday go to meeting bay rum.

I agree that PAA does a fine Bay Rum. I have a couple of bottles of HTGAM Bay Rum, one with alcohol and one without and I have a bottle of PAA Bay Rum and a bottle of Atomic Age Bay Rum. I really like them all. I also like the Captain's Choice Bay Rum and Cat O'Nine Tails. Chatillon Lux Blackberry Blossom Bay, while not a true bay rum but a bay inspired scent is just awesome.

I have his soap. I enjoy it a lot. in fact, when I went to Cancun and Texas a little less than 2 years ago, the only soap I took along with me was B&M Bay Rum.

I have the PAA classic bay rum, which I like a lot as well as the atomic age aftershave, that I find to be pretty good, but I prefer other bay rums. Give me a rich bay rum with a lot of spice and I'm good!

I think I smelled it when I was in St. John's a few years ago but don't think I've ever used it, no. I don't even remember if I liked the smell or not, to be honest.
