Hawaiian Surf Cologne
| This fragrance was popular in the mid to late 1960's. It came in a cork cannister. Is there an available source for it? |

| There is a fragrance now available called "Caribbean Lime Bay Rum" which, if not the same formula, is very similar to Hawaiian Surf. |

| I see still sealed bottles of this sell regularly on e-bay. Saw one just last week and one a few weeks before, another several months ago. ..Gary. |

| I have been looking for Hawaiian Surf in the cork bottle for almost 10 years. I even looked in hawaii when I was on vacation but could not find. Let me know if you locate a source. I grew up in Florida and it was very big in the 1967-1970 period. Thanks |

| I've searched the Internet for "Caribbean Lime Bay Rum" but I can't find this exact name. Who makes it? |

ST.John's Bay Rum makes the lime spice cologne. I used the last of my Hawaiian Surf this year and St. John's is a very good 2nd! I have used it since the 60s- always uniform. What ever it is that they do, they're doing it right. Http://stjohnsbayrum.com/
P.S. No..., H/S DOES still smell great. I expect that the ingredients were too costly to continue making. My bottle says that it was made by Hawaiian Surf in Hawaii. I never have found any other info on it. Cheers! |

| I also used this cologne in the late 60s and early 70s. I still have two empty bottles with the cork, and the aroma can still be detected. |

| I was a surfer and lifeguard in the 60s in Hollywood, Florida and always used this cologne. It came in a cork lined bottle. Does anyone know who the mfg was and how we can obtain it again? I found one bottle in Raleigh,nc back in the 80s and was about 15 years old...but it was GOLD !!! |

I am in the same boat I have been looking for this colone for years. I really liked back in the late 60s
If anyone one has found a source hit me up.
The irony would be to find some only then to find out your taste has changed...
Hi-Karate anyone :-P |

| I've tried the St. Johns Bay Rum product and it is a good substitute for Hawaiian Surf. Wouldn't it be great if someone would formulate and market the original formular now! |

| Man... I've been searching for Hawaiian Surf Cologne, (the original in the cork bottle) since 1972. Was using it before then but couldn't find it after that. Does anyone know what company originally bottled it? If anyone can find it I'll be eternally grateful. |

| While it's comforting reading that I'm not the only one obsessed with HS, I'm not sure if there is any left. I have contacted the original designer's son and he doesn't have any answers. I have a 1/2 bottle left and if anyone has a suggestion how to find someone (company) to duplicate I would be more than happy to share. |

| Is the Hawaiian Surf smell-a-like cologne the "Bay Rum with Lime" or the "West Indian Lime"?? |
| posted 12/22/09 by el Surfeador |
| Re: Hawaiian Surf Cologne |

| I believe it's the West Indian Lime. I ordered the $5 samples from St. Johns for my dad (who has been looking for this for years). He said it's the closest to HS that he's found based off memory. |

| Demeters Hawaiian Surf is nice but it's not like the old Hawaiian Surf. You can get off ebay for a reasonable price. |

| Re: Hawaiian Surf Cologne |

| Also, the West Indian Lime cologne is also available on ebay, $36 with $8 shipping. Save about $5, not a huge savings but it's something ($42 + $7 shipping from company web site). |

| FYI- The West Indian Lime cologne is very limey (I have tried it), but it's still not like HS. |

| Still have the bottle which is actually in a cork covering of the bottle. Nothing left in the bottle but the smell is still there, and I open it on rare occasions, afraid the smell will disappear. Would like to find it, and would probably pay moderately for it if it was the real stuff |

| I have a 4oz bottle. I guess I could mail some on a cotton ball so you could smell to verify. Can divide it up into smaller bottles. Its in the original cork bottle now. Could send picture from my cell to another cell. |

| What would be a going price if someone has a 95% full bottle of the original authentic cologne? |
| posted 07/19/10 by pianogrrrl |
| Re: Hawaiian Surf Cologne |

| Not sure if my other message went through. If there was a legitimate 95% full bottle of the authentic cologne, what would be a going rate? And to get an idea of pricing, what was it sold at back in "the day"? Was it like a designer fragrance like Ralph Lauren? Where all could you get it? |

| Re: Hawaiian Surf Cologne |

| Have 4oz in original cork bottle. Will divide. Can send pics over the cell phone and/or mail sample for smell idenifying. |

| Does Hawaiian Surf smell like Old Spice Fresh Lime cologne/aftershave? I think these smell wonderful,but H.S. Was a little before my time,so I never got to smell what it was like. There was one called "Dry Lime" by Max Factor for men ,in the Royal Regiment line, also Frost Lime , by Aqua Velva, also Surf Rider(made in Hawaii about the same time period as H.S. These are some vintage colognes I have found on Ebay, but I never won any of the H.S. Yet. |

| Question: Is it just an empty bottle or is it partially full of cologne ? |

| Does anyone know how to identify what year a bottle was made? Was any year better than another? I have a bottle. It looks pretty old. It does smell good though. |

| Re: Hawaiian Surf Cologne |

| Well don't know if it ages like a fine wine, but have to say if it was available I would put it in that category to purchase it, without much hesitation. |

| I too would purchase without hesitation.... |
| posted 07/17/10 by Denny |
| Re: Hawaiian Surf Cologne |

| If it's an original HS, I'd definitely purchase it. All I can do now is continue to whiff the sweet scent from my old empty original cork-covered bottles. |
| posted 07/17/10 by DavLou |
| Re: Hawaiian Surf Cologne |

| Who would ever think...after all these years, that one would even think of this stuff, again. When I was younger...I just wasted HS....Now I would be willing to pay high dollars, for a bottle...and I am not even, an everyday cologn user... |

| Well, does anyone want to make me an offer? My auto repair shop burnt down recently and took the napa store and fire station with it. I could use a few bucks. |

| I won't be too greedy, but for a verifiable 1/2 oz. I would think $200-300 would be reasonable. Of course I know some of you may think that's not enough, (you may be right) but while I am sorry for the loss of your facility... Well actually don't know where I'm going with this. Anyway, if it's the real thing I could go higher, maybe $500. In the back of my head I'm thinking I must be crazy, but my friend Dick Vincent says money is just something you use to get stuff. He has a lot more than I do (money and stuff). |

| "Royal Lyme" out of Bermuda is a good substitute for Hawaiian Surf. It's readily available & somewhat expensive. |
