I've tried two other bay rums before this and they are all a bit different. The thing that put me off most about the others was the predominance of cloves whereas with Sunbury's they don't take centre stage.
Just a week ago I finally found somewhere where I could sniff it. It seems interesting..dodgy said:Well, I have one possible suggestion for getting yourself a sniff of bay rum. Now keep in mind it 's only one version of that fragrance, but it's a common one used in many bay rum products. Sometimes it's used as a base and other notes are added like clove, orange, lime, and stuff like that. The single note juice is called Pimenta Racemosa.

Hi PC,
I'm sorry to inform you that your nose is screwed up. There's actually lots of clove in Steve's aftershave.
Sorry for the bad news,
Martin

That's OK Martin, I took the news on the chin. Well, yes there are cloves there but not compared to the Ogollala bay rum and another that I can't recall the name of. Or my brain is just warming to the scent of cloves. This is why I rarely write reviews. :roll:
PompeyBill said:Been using Steve's Bay Rum over the last couple of days and, have to say, am really enjoying it. Fullsome smell of cloves at first (for an ideal for myself I'd tone this down just a tad), but overall a lovely aftershave with a great smell once applied and settled down. Am a huge fan of the dropper, which lets a clumsy oaf like myself control the amount which goes on my hand, with the aftershave itself being decently thick, which gives a really nice, warm glow feeling when applied. Highly recommended and deserving of a shave smilie --> :shave
Am also glad to see that Steve will have another batch ready in a couple of weeks, as I'll be getting another bottle in
