I'd been wanting to try a Bay Rum aftershave or cologne for some time now. However as usual it can be difficult to source things in Australia at a reasonable price if at all. Albeit I eventually found a hair salon wholesaler who stocked Pinaud Clubman Virgin Island Bay Rum and I bought it.
I've been social dancing all my adult life and take pride in being well presented and smelling nice for the ladies. These days I've specialised in Rock N Roll with two three hour lessons during the week and then social dancing Friday through to Sunday nights. Some dances can be quite athletic with at times heavy perspiration involved especially at the three hour lessons. Therefore the need to maintain meticulous cleanliness and smelling nice.
On social nights I use a different aftershave or cologne. When I do my laundry there is still the lingering scent of whichever aroma I have used on my shirts and singlets. So I know that what I'm using is effective in addition to the regular comments I get from the ladies in my dance club. Additionally as I perspire it have a sense of the aroma wafting up from around my face, neck and chest.
Not so with this Bay Rum however. It certainly has an interesting aroma to begin with but then just fades away. And yes I have sniffed my shirts LOL to check and there is nothing.
Therefore my question is. Have I bought a "Dud" Bay Rum or are they all like that with no staying power?
Regards and appreciation for your feedback.
