I use Royall, Pinaud Clubman and a C.O. Bigelow Bay Rum that was available at Bath & Body Works a couple years ago. What Im looking for from you gentlemen is recommendations on other brands / types of Bay Rum available on the market. Aftershaves or colognes, all suggestions are appreciated.
Bay Rum Recommendations!

Superior 70 Bay Rum may be available near you <$3.00 -- check C-Town locations. I'm pretty sure there are a couple in eastern CT.
Ogallala Bay Rum is great.
It's not chemical like Pinaud.

Try saintcharlesshave.com Bayrum with a Twist.
+1 on the Superior 70 Bay Rum. I bought mine at Walgreen's. Masters Bay Rum is available if you have a Sally Beauty Supply close to you.
Oglalla is lovely and $15 us (or so) will get you a generous 2oz sample of all their aftershaves and colognes. They even kicked in a sample of their soap and their room deodorizer. It's one of the best bargains of any sort that I know about!
A bay rum-ish aftershave that I really like is Aubrey Organic's Men's Stock Spiced Island. It's all natural, organic yadda yadda, but it has aloe and witch hazel to balance out the burn of the alcohol, so I find it a lot more gentle than other bay rums I've tried. It feels great and makes the skin nice and smooth!

D.R. Harris Bay Rum After-shave is a suitably (for the English) DRY Bay Rum. If you don't want any sweetness it is a fine choice.
If you want sweetness try Ogallala.

Dominica - the scent lasts a long time.

It doesn't last long, but the scent is great. I recommend the balm.

I like Ogallala myself.
I'll add my +1 to the Master's BR crowd. Affordable and you can get it locally if you have a Sally Beauty Supply nearby.
I really like the Trumpers Bay Rum cologne.
+1 It may be too clove heavy for some but I love it.
Bay Rum is not usually my thing, but I thought Meehan made a really nice one, very refined: http://www.bonnydoonfarm.com/catalog/page4.html
Hiya,
I've recently ordered the bay rum sampler from this company. I haven't received it yet, but the selection seems to have some good brands included. Ordered it late yesterday and the package was shipped today. Take a look in the 'bay rum shop' section on that site for the sample set.
Hope that helps and here's the link: www.barclaycrocker.com

Ogallala Bay Rum is fantastic and lasts quite a while
yep Love it. Stays as a slight scent all day long. Another one of my favorite is the Harris After shave. Super stuff
