Empyrean Bay Rum Splash (Ultima)
Truth be told, I was never a big fan of traditional bay rum scents. I wanted to create a Bay Rum composition which is not typical and without cinnamon or clove oils which can cause adverse effects and irritation. I’m using real Bay Leaf and rum. In place of cinnamon & cloves, I’m using real tonka, real Coumarin for warmth and added complexity. I’m also using Clementine essential oil and orange blossom. In addition, I have added a hint of Apple & Pomegranate notes. Finally I added a whisper of geranium essential oil and a powder note which I think turned this into a beautiful scent people who don’t normally gravitate towards traditional bay rums will love.
Notes: Clementine, orange blossom, green apple, pomegranate, rum, geranium, powder, tonka bean, coumarin, bay leaf, cedar
Ingredients: Aloe Vera Juice, SD 40B Alcohol, Rose Hydrosol, Vegetable Glycerin, Emu Oil, Calendula Extract , Red Clover Extract, Chamomile, Plantain Leaves, White Willow Bark, Vitamin E, Hyaluronic Acid, Caprylic Triglycerides ( combination of plant sugars and fatty acids derived from palm and coconut oils for silkier feel and as a natural preservative).
I slapped this on after a shave and instantly heard thunder crack. Somewhere, a kraken stirred.
This isnt your grandpas bay rumunless your grandpa was a fire-slinging sea warlock with a six-pack of abs and a vendetta against mediocre aftershaves. Warm spice, dark citrus, and a flick of infernal rum. It hits sharp for a second, then smooths out like a sea breeze through scorched cedar.
My face felt incredible. My ego? Unjustifiably massive.
I didnt apply this splash. I ascended.

Looking great while doing morally questionable things in linen shirts.
Smells amazing and soothes the skin after a great shave with the matching soap. The smell sticks around and seems to change to different fragrances as the day goes on. Absolutely amazing work on everything you do.
Interesting, this is not your ordinary Bay Rum Scent. A&E combination of scents that are used for this is second to none. The artwork really tells you how this smells like. It has a powder note but with the orange, apple and pomegranate notes it comes off as all I can say one of a kind.
An exceptional take on a classic! This bay rum aftershave is warm, spicy, and incredibly smooth. I find it well balanced with a subtle sweetness that lingers just right. The post-shave feel is top-notch just like all A&E products. If you're looking for a unique version of bay rum, this one is a must-try!
This bay rum has definitely set a new standard in the bay rum world! its a very beautiful blend of citrusy orange and orange blossom with a perfect amount of powdery woodiness! A&E always finds a way to create something new!
