I'm torn as to which bay rum A/S to get. I'm looking at Krampert's and Captain's Choice. I currently have Ogallala and enjoy it, although the regular bay rum can be a bit much. I really like the bay rum, lime and peppercorns and bay rum and sandalwood. I've heard good things about both Krampert's and CS but just need a nudge in a particular direction. Ready, GO!
Bay Rum dilemma
- Thread starter sgtd
- Start date
Krampert's = post-grad level performance; little burn; great skin care
CC = high school performance (maybe); burn; little skin care

CC not too strong a scent if that is what you are after. On the B&B, it seems like Dominica Bay Rum Lime also gets a lot of love, so you may want to try that. Unfortunately, i have yet to try it so can't give you a first hand report.
Get some Pinaud VIBR and embrace the burn 
I find the CC to be a nice, smooth AS but smells like Christmas cookies to my nose. I suggest trying one of the Captains samples.
Haven't tried Krampert's yet but it is on my short list.

Lucky Tiger bay rum is my choice.
I have Captains Choice and really like it. My skin really likes Captains choice too. Most Bay Rums use clove as a main scent. The Captain doesn't. Plus, the fact that he is a vendor as well as a B & B member here is a nice bonus! Nice guy too.
I am a self-confessed Ogallala disciple, but I have used the CC after the last three shaves and don't see that trend stopping anytime soon. I love the scent (which disappears almost immediately to my nose) and it leaves my skin feeling amazing. Highly recommended from me!
I'm probably one of the few who favor Masters Bay Rum over Captain's Choice. I wanted to love it, but it didn't perform as well for me...nor did the scent linger nearly as long.
