D.S. & Durga Rum Bay Rum is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025. Rum Bay Rum opens with Linden Tree, Sandalwood, and Bay Leaf, settles into a heart of Pimiento, Neroli, and Clove, and dries down to a base of Rose, Opoponax, and Juniper. D.S. & Durga's Rum Bay Rum carries a Favourite verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

Don't let the name fool you. This isn't your grandad's bay rum aftershave; it's a modern, well-blended spicy woody scent. Expect sophistication, not a blast of straight-up bay rum and cloves, which might disappoint purists searching for that classic vibe.

About

It kicks off with a fresh, green burst of bay leaf and linden, quickly mellowing into a warm, inviting heart where spicy pimiento and clove dance with soft neroli. The dry down is a sophisticated blend of woody sandalwood and coniferous juniper, softened by a touch of opoponax and an unexpected, gentle rose. It's a complex, evolving fragrance that leaves a lingering, resinous sweetness.
