I will put it down then smell it every now and then for several weeks and then one day boom - I love it. Its weird how the brain and the nose works. Its true that this is a bay inspired scent and not a true bay rum but its still nice and I'm glad that Ryan is willing to take chances.(06-26-2022, 06:56 PM)Marko Wrote: I’ve had this Tallow + Steel Baygere for a while. Initially I was unsure about it but with regular sniffing and a little time I now love itI never gave mine a fighting chance, purchased, 1 and done. For me, it wasn’t even close to bay rum, but I don’t think it was meant to be a strict BAY RUM. Maybe I was too impatient with it

picked 1 up...been meaning to try it anyways!
Tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito.
my gilbert henry bay rum balm arrived today.
pretty good scent out of the bottle, definitely reminds me of captain's choice balm or stirling's bay rum....the citrus comes through a bit..I get mostly an orange note.
here we are about 3 hours since applying it, roughly, and I can still smell the scent pretty easily. my skin is nice and supple as well.
is it my favorite bay rum scent? no, but it's certainly A LOT better than a lot on the market..

That would be worth a sniff. They generally do a good job
Agreed! I definitely plan to snag a bottle. If it's good, I'll grab backups!
