Layrite #9 Bay Rum
- Thread starter Bundah
- Start date
OK, tried it today with a proper shave in the morning. Pretty much like Masters, but a bit more clove in there, I think. As for longevity, it seems that the clove keeps this scent alive a little bit longer compared to Masters. But the latter provides more bang for the buck in my view.
Of course, longevity and things like that are different for different skins and almost depend on the direction the wind is blowing etc.
Maybe a Wiki page for bay rums should be in order? There are probably around 124 000 different threads and mentions about bay rums here and there.

I have it. Very good Bay Rum. Suavacito makes the same one for $6.99!
Good to know! I was checking, that the bottles looked the same.
My barber has Layrite No. 9 and Suavacito at the shop. Smells alike.
First time poster, but just wanted to let you guys know... Layrite and Suavecito smelling the same is not a coincidence. Suavecito is owned and formulated by a former employee of Layrite.
Oops, so much for trade secrets!
Hawleywoods / Layrite No9 bay rum is the only A/S i have bought more than once! I love it =)
Just got some today and the scent is quite nice!
One of the best! 
I think they are the same!

I think Layrite has been around long enough for patents and copyrights to expire. I do like it, though. Seems more substantial than Masters, for sure. Heavier on the face. Nice scent, lasts reasonably well. Old school bay rum, yeah. I got a bottle at home. I'm at work now and rotating Clubman, VIBR, Clubman Special Reserve, Floid Vigoroso, Lucky Tiger, Indian Old Spice, and Pinaud Lime Sec. Have to leave a lot of favorites at home, and LayRite #9 was one of them this time.
Good to hear! I don't know why it is called "Layrite" now because that's the pomade that "Hawleywoods" make.. That's what it was called before. "Hawleywoods no 9"
