Our verdict

A classic Caribbean bay rum that works as both a soothing aftershave and a spicy cologne, sold in a hand-woven palm bottle. The listed scent duration is short compared with a parfum.

Overview

Splash St. John Bay Rum on after a shave or wear it as a cologne for a spicy bay leaf, cinnamon and clove scent. Eucalyptus and botanical oils cool and calm freshly shaved skin.

Two jobs in one bottle, aftershave and cologne, with a traditional Virgin Islands bay rum profile and a handmade woven bottle. Scent duration is modest, so it suits a morning ritual more than all-day fragrance.

Who it's for

Traditional wet shavers and fans of classic barbershop scents. Those who want a fragrance to last into the evening should look at a stronger concentration.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Aftershave and cologne in one
  • Eucalyptus cools after shaving
  • Warm cinnamon and clove notes
  • Hand-woven palm bottle
Cons
  • Short listed scent duration
  • Splash format, no sprayer
  • Spicy profile not for everyone

Performance notes

Cooling comes from eucalyptus, while botanical oils calm razor irritation. The bay, cinnamon and clove scent is bold at first but fades over a few hours at cologne strength. Applying to warm skin after shaving releases the spice most.
