I believe Ogallala offers a "Special Reserve" version that is double-strength. I have the regular cologne and find it rather weak.
I can only tell you what not to get. Royall Bay Rhum smells like cloves for about 5 minutes, and then it's gone. Probably not what you're looking for.
Dominica.
a night on the town, will leave you smelling with a rum and smoke scent that rarely goes away without a wash 
I love this stuff, but it disappears on me. I'm lucky if I get two hours out of it.
You should consider Bigelow Bay Rum cologne #32. I just picked up some this week on a tip that it was on clearance at Bath and Body Works for 75% off. (There was a thread on B&B earlier this week about it.) The BBW outlet I went to had over 20 bottles of it still.
The Bigelow is nice, and long lasting. It comes in a spray bottle, which I don't typically like.
To my nose, Pinaud and Ogallala are similar, but the Bigelow is a bit different. It mignt not be as "clovey", but I definitely recognized it as a bay rum.
Just a thought.

+1 on the Bigelows. I love the stuff.
n33470, you're lucky! The B&BW stores in my area had none of the cologne only a few bottles of the balm.
I was really hoping to pickup 2 bottles of cologne at the sale price. But like real estate, it's location, location, location!

Meehan's Bay Rhum cologne smells amazing and has excellent staying power, at least on me.
Took it right out of my mouth. Excellent scents, especially the Bay Rum and Sandalwood. Freaking awesome. I would say just go buy some. They'll load up on the samples also so you can try out quite a bit of their stuff on the cheap. Cheap doesn't mean bad quality. They just offer their stuff at super-low prices and it smokes a lot of the competition out there. Especially at it's price point there is no other BR you're gonna find that can stand up to it.
I wanted to chime in here again. Over the weekend, I used Em's Place Bay Rum EO blend, and it lasted a full day easily. It's not a pure bay rum scent (although it attentuates over time as the lighter oils fade in strength), and as I didn't want to irritate my skin, I put a dab on my shirt. I think Em offers this in an EdT; I would definitely recommend checking it out. Now, my gf did ask, "What is that smell?", in a not-exactly-complimentary fashion, but I did garner a "You smell so sweet!" (as in awesome) from one of the other women in our party.
