my brain goes "thonk"
I found a store online that sells the pimenta racemosa oil.
This is among the many that i have found: It seems real easy. Also I had read somewhere you could add a few drops of gylcerin when the mix is finished.
4 Ounces Vodka
2 Tablespoons Jamaican Rum
2 Dried Bay Leaves
1/4 Teaspoon Allspice
1 Stick of Cinnamon, broken in pieces
Fresh Zest from a Small Orange
Combine all ingredients in a container such as a bottle or mason jar with a tightly fitting lid. Put the closed container in a dark, cool place (not in the refrigerator). After two weeks, strain mixture through several layers of cheesecloth, paper towels or a coffee filter. If necessary, repeat until no residue remains. Put in an attractive bottle or atomizer and splash on or spray face after shaving.
On the artofmanliness.com forum, one warned of the poisonous nature of the nicotine in the tobacco.
4 Ounces Ever Clear
2 Tablespoons Jamaican Rum
10 drops Bay Rum EO
1 Stick of Cinnamon, broken in pieces
Fresh Zest from two limes - use more if you want it more limey
8 drops Sandalwood EO
1 oz Witch Hazel
I used this for my last batch and it is my Favorite so far. My skin loves it. Thanks for this post.
Why it is no good?2 Dried Bay Leaves (Dont use the bay leaf they sell at the grocery store. While its good for soups, its not good for bay rum. Make sure to use Pimenta racemosa, sometimes available at natural food stores)

Which Jamaican Rum did you use? I have Myers, but not Appleton. I might need to get a bottle for the aftershave and to make a drink!
