I just got the bottle of Clubman bay rum and classic vanilla I ordered.
As far as the bay rum goes I have to keep reminding myself that Clubman has a way of making bad first impressions and then growing on you. It has a cloying spice at first then it cools off, but becomes almost a powdery musk. Like the spice turns into skin bracer. My girlfriend said she didn't hate it, but she also said that I smelled like a nursing home.
The classic vanilla perplexed me. I loved every bit of it, and my girlfriend said she liked it. It was like a fresher and slightly less "floral" (maybe) version of regular clubman with a hint of that sweet tonka flavor. I like this one a lot, so far.
I think I should've gotten the 12oz of the vanilla and the "sample" (6oz) of the bay rum.
