After buying oils for 5 years now, I decided to expand to other companies I hadn't tested previously, so Deadmans Beard Co came into the picture. I started with Agave Tide, then got Orange Fortunella, & Obsidian. I was already on a roll, vastly impressed by their expertly done scents. Then I ordered two more:
Fruityloopocalpse and Spiced Rum. I will review Fruityloopocalpse separately. Once I got Spiced Rum, I was quite taken aback how well done this scent was. It's so clean, very essential but done in a way it's not just bluntly an essential scent but a very well-crafted essential scent, rum with spice, not too many layers. I LOVE it absolutely! It made me feel like a Pirate Captain who has retired to his elaborate cove, in his evening wear entertaining guests of a lesser pedigree. The rum essence smells very aromatic and the spices balanced and tamed the scent exactly what it should be. A+ for this scent.
