PAA Atomic Age vs. Derby City Chop Shop vs. Ethos Bay Rum - I have to choose one

[pavnobi]

I settled on Ethos. I liked it but I didn't feel it had enough staying power, so I gifted it away. Floid is tough to compete with.

Of the Bay Rums I’ve tried, St. Johns Bay is my favorite scent result. The current formulation is the original formula with an additional dose of Bay Rum oil. All I get from it scent-wise is Clove/West Indian Bay Leaf/Cinnamon up top, but it settles down to a smoothed out addicting bay oil.

Now because St Johns BR isn’t going to have the skin food ingredients like ETHOS, I first use Josie Maran Argon Oil, and then apply St Johns Bay. The scent starts loud, then lingers with me throughout the office workday, but I don’t think it punches anyone in the face.

I have used a number of Bay Rums and the best I have found is PAA Atomic Age Bay Rum soap teamed with the Atomic Age Bay Rum Star Jelly Aftershave, outstanding products!
