Genuine Ogallala Bay Rum products have a bold, refreshing fragrance...like you remember from years ago in the barber shop! Quite simply, this stuff smells great!  It has much more fragrance than most...it smells like Bay Rum used to.  The cologne is our premium product! While you can also use it as aftershave, some have found it a mite strong for that purpose, so the aftershave line was also added. The cologne comes with an additional label on the tag that reads: "Warning! Contents are potent. Not for sissies!"  Please understand the aftershave is not just a thinned down version of the cologne. They are totally separate products...but with an underlying similar scent. Both have been very favorably received by bay rum connoisseurs!
