the smell was like new plastic...but changed very nicely
When I first used this...the smell was like new plastic, but it faded into a nice scent.  Not a very strong scent, but pleasant.  Only mildly reminded me of other Bay Rum after shaves and colognes.  I would get this again and will be using more when I apply it.  It changes after 15 minutes to a nice mild bay rum scent.  It's a classic Bay Rum smell...not spicy at all...no cloves and cinnamon.  This combined with Captain's Choice Cat O Nine Tails aftershave is a perfect match.  They smell a lot alike.
